I'm thinking of either going to Mexico to have surgery or have surgery done locally with Abington Hospital since they have a self pay program.  I'm interested in the Vertical Sleeve.  Anyone have surgery with Dr Fernando Bonanni that would like to relate there experience?
Thanks!

I have my VSG with Dr. B almost 4 years ago.  I had a great experience with Dr B and Maggie.

I had surgury with dr fernando bonanni in 2009 he was in abbington pa I live in nj my insurance recommended a few but I choose dr bonanni with all his tests that he performend I new I was in good hands because some of my friends had surgury by other surgeouns and some should have never had the surgury they had done. I would recomend dr bonanni to anyone who wants or needs weight loss surgury. My goal 5 years ago was to get to my high school weight of 225 and today I am 205 because of the surgury he performend and check ups with maggy it was a success. Now I no everyone wants to no my pre surgury weight 320lbs going in for check up in march 2013 I hope this will help anyone interrested. Thanks dr b.

I had surgery with Dr. B 4 years ago. He is great He is very considerate and understanding. I would go back to him in a heart beat.

Hi there!  I had posted that a long time ago.  Guess what I did have Dr Bonnani and I got the VSG.  I'm 7 weeks post op now.  No major complications just very minor ones like a little nausea and constipation. etc.   I've lost 51 pounds since my highest weight.  And in the last 9 weeks (including the preop diet) I lost 41 lbs.  I've very happy even though my weight loss is a little slower than average.  :-) 

We should meet sometime.  Do you go to the support groups.  If so send me a private message on here with your number and I'll call you.  My name is Tammy b****ake care.
