I found a doc!!!

I am not bashing any docs here but for me reputation, money and location are big factors. I went from Dr. A in Mexico to Dr. Pleatman in Michigan.  This cost is about 1 thousand more but it is much closer to where I live! YAY ME!!!!! I wish everyone has good luck in finding their doc

Hurrraaayyyy.............. I'm happy for you. I have done some research on Dr. Pleatman. He's a new doc to bariatrics, but I'm sure knows his stuff. His credentials are on www.alighterme.com .  We'll be welcoming you soon to the loser's bench. It's quite a ride! Jen

Thats great. I actually looked into Dr. Pleatman as well..but the drive was too much for me - with having to make more than one visit.. good luck!

^ for me the drive is just around the lake (Lake MIchigan) and I think I can take a ferry. But I am sure that Puerto Vallarta will be awesome!! I would take a few days before surgery just to relax on the beach if I was you.  Thanks for all the lovely comments ya'll
