Hi Jennifer, I'm going to Dr. Garcia on April 9th. How was everything?
Which Dr did u end up using? And if u don't mind me asking what was the price? Thanks for all the info too. Did u have to do a liquid diet prior to going?
Hi! Good Luck with your decision! I private messaged you with some info. Linda :)
I started by obsessively reading the forums and paying attention to what names came up most often. From there I narrowed it down to a few that seemed to stand out and started to focus on who did surgery where, what was included and then finally price. I then started to reach out to those specific surgeons to discuss my situation and get a feel for how they responded to me and my questions and then I joined the FB groups to talk to specific patients and here their experiences. Hope this helps, good luck !
I am not even sure how to research this I have been reading the forums and the types of surgery but feel so very alone.
Excellent thank you , did you go through them?

Any one who has experience in Mexico would be greatly appreciated I am hoping I can go this summer. it is my last chance at helping myself.
No but I am wanting to have this surgery so will be interested to see how you do.
I am not sure about the other doctors. I do know that Dr Alvarez, who I went to, uses titanium staples. He has a youtube video where he shows the brand he uses and demonstrates them. Search for Endobariatric on youtube. He has many videos but this one is listed with his questions of the week. Good luck in your search.
