I JUST HEARD THAT LAP BAND IS NOW BEING PERFORMED IN NEW MEXICO, IS THIS CORRECT? I HAVE A FRIEND WHO IS RESEARCHING THIS TYPE OF SURGERY, AND I KNOW THAT THERE WERE NO DOCTORS HERE THAT DID THAT SURGERY, AM I WRONG OR IS SHE WRONG?

As far as I know there is not any type of WLS is being done in New Mexico. If i have mine it will be in Lubbock. They also do it in El Paso Texas and Scottsdale AZ.
do you happen to know where exactly or the name of the doctor? I had mine in Arizona but that is because i lived there at the time. Plus I really wanted to have Dr. Fang or Dr. Juarez do my RNY because they don't use blood transfusions if the need should arise. Thank you have a great day.
please check, because I may be wrong, but I thought soomeone at the U was doing bariatrics (RNY). also Pres was looking at bringing a bariatric surgeon on-not sure if it went through or not
