So iam thinking about getting Lap RNY with Dr. Aceves and I just wanted to know what you all think of him? Also I went through Med financial to get financing but was only approved for 5,500. I was wondering if I had my mother apply (didn't work as a co-signer) and get her own amoutn of mnoney if she would be able to use that money for my surgery? Anyone have any exprience with this?

I don't know how financing works but I know someone who does. She had a bankruptcy and was able to get a decent loan for her band at a decent rate. If you go to lapbandtalk (dot) com and look for a member by the ID of Coltonwade, she knows all about financing. I think she had her surgery in the states by Rincon but she did the whole financing part. She seems to know a great deal about it. I don't know if she posts over here or not, if she does I don't know her ID. Might be Coltenwade. Dr. Aceves is great. He did my band, he's a very good, quality, skilled surgeon with excellent stats. Just saw him last week for a fill.

I am a patient of Dr. Aceves. I had the lapband placed in March 2005. I love Dr. Aceves! He is truly a caring doctor and I consider him a great surgeon. You can read more about my story on my website www.tracyslapband.com . I am not trying to promote my web site, just felt if you wanted to learn more about Dr. Aceves and my experience, that might be the place to start.

Lapband 3/1/05
Lost 120 lbs-gained 50lbs back
Sleeved 6/2/09-Lost 20lbs gained it back after hysterectomy on 1/15/10

As of 11/7/2015 I have gained all my weight plus some. I weigh 313lbs. I blame it on steroid injections I received for my back, the cymbalta i am on for fibromyalgia, I was on Lyrica for 3 months and gained 30lbs, and I found out I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis as well as Pcos. I had back surgery and had to lay flat for three months which didn't help either only to find out a year later the surgery was a failure. I now have a spinal cord injury and I am in a wheelchair! So much has happened since I last visited this site. The only thing I can do is swim. I am going to try and do this at least 2 times a week and work up to more!
