Hi, i have a fear of flying and want the Vertical Sleeve. I'm looking at Mexico because of affordability. I live in Louisiana, and would like to drive there because I don't want to deal with the anxiety of flying before and after surgery. Does anyone know of a good surgeon that's near the Texas border closer to the Louisiana side? I would like to keep the driving around 8 to 10 hours if possible. Thanks everybody in advance.

Dr. Alvarez has a great reputation. I know people personally who have used him and I have also read good things about him here on OH. I believe he offers transportation to his clinic from San Antonio. Here is his website: https://www.endobariatric.com

There is a forum for surgery in Mexico, I'd suggest taking a look there for suggestions.
