Topic: RE: Looking For a Surgeon in ABQ
Hi there,
Unfortunately, there current is no surgeon in all of NM for us. I personally travelled to El Paso and see Dr. Clapp at Southwest Surgeons. I love him. He's a great dr & I would reccomend him to anyone.
Good luck on your journey!!

Topic: RE: Having trouble getting an appt after approval?
Have you tried to call Deborah? She usually calls me back by 7 pm. Becky is usually the one that schedules surgery try her as well if you have not already tried. As I said patience I know the frustration when you get that approval and you want it ASAP! Good luck let us know how it is going. BTW do you have a case manager who can do this for you? I have one and when she came along it was easy sailing.

I only met Dr Lara for about 2 minutes but I he is not my issue and that is why I have stayed there. Also, I did alot of research and I am really impressed with him. My real issue is dealing with the office although I will not have to depend on them for my surgery.

You have to understand that Del Sol/Las Palmas is a very busy clinic being that they are taking a lot of patients from New Mexico and it just takes time. I had my surgery one week ago and it took me quite a few months after my approval to get the surgery. Don't get frustrated, this clinic is well worth it and they really do care. I had Dr. Acosta but I hear great things about Dr. Lara. Be patient it will happen. Congrats on the approval, just take a deep breath and it will all fall into place OK.

I went to Dr. Lara, he is very kind and very professional.... I am one year post op and at goal. I have a few friends that also went to Dr. Lara and they have done very good. Because we live closer to Albuquerque, that is where we are going for our follow ups. Dr. Lara is Great! Handsome too!

You are just a mean nasty person who needs a shrink. I am NOT a paid poster as I am a REAL person. Either you are a promoter for a certain surgeon, or you simply have no life whatsoever since all you do is POSTPOSTPOST on these message boards. The odds are 50% 50% as far as I can tell. All I am trying to do is find out REAL info on doctors in MX. You need to find a good psychiatrist. AND NOW I CHOOSE TO IGNORE ANYMORE OF YOUR NASTINESS!! all I gotta do i**** delete!!

Wow...It seems to me that you and WASabubblebutt have alot in common...hmmmm........I just keep wondering how many people are actual patients on these websites. How can I find unbiased information on Mexcian surgeons?
Well, obviously Wasa and I have a great deal in common since it is COMMON knowledge we are one in the same. My ID on LBT is Wasa and my ID here is MWG. Any idiot knows that. Considering my profile is absolutely identical to Wasa... it's not hard to figure out. Surely even YOU could figure out the same??
It is also common knowledge that Pompa's sleeves are big enough to feed a heifer. I suppose you did not know that either?
Dumbass.
Wow..your a real *****I am just trying to sort information out...Your a real angry person!! Get professional help, honey you need more than WLS!!!

I wouldn't go to her. Not because of skill issues but because she's with Betancourt Medical. The patient coordinator pushing her right now claims she is a Mayo doctor. Patti, the coordinator, told a friend of mine that she did her residency at Mayo. This is not true, she was an unpaid visiting physician for a month at Mayo, that is not the same thing.
Dr. Pompa was just Inamed certified in December, nowhere near long enough to get experienced. I know she did one band and it took her three hours to place. That procedure should take about 30 minutes. There was no hernia involved, just placing the band. That is concerning to me.
I would do a search for the following terms here on OH and on www.lapbandtalk.com:
Betancourt
Huacuz (used to work for Betancourt)
Molding Clinic (used to be where Betancourt worked)
You'll find a wealth of information there.
Be very careful, don't believe what coordinators tell you, they lie all the time. Well, obviously Wasa and I have a great deal in common since it is COMMON knowledge we are one in the same.
