I've asked this before but can't find old posts.

I had VS in MX Jan 2012.  Gained all the weight back.  Am interested in finding out what would be the best revision surgery for me and which MX surgeon most prefer.  I think Dr. Ugnson (sp) was recommended.

Thanks in advance.

I would only use Dr. Ungson for a revision. He has been around a long time and has lots of experience.

Which type of revision did you have?

I was given the SADI by Dr. Ponce de Leon although I had paid Pomce for a DS. I was having bile reflux from the SADI and revised from the SADI to a true DS.

Just filled out the online paperwork for medicaltourismco.com.  We'll see what their suggestion(s) are.

I would recommend Dr. Jorge Maytorena.  I know of a lady who just had it done and he did wonderful on her.  I myself had the sleeve with great results.  

His price is great and he has a lot of experience in bariatric surgery.  This is the company that I used.....http://longtermvsg.com/

Anyone know anything about Dr. Camelo Ramos?  Lady from medicaltourism.co just called with a quote of $5500 or so and the doctor's suggestion of being resleeved.  Does it at Florence Hospital.

 

She said Ungson takes a while to get back to her and his rates are going WAY up due to newly added administrative fees.  Plus the procedure is not done at a hospital (???) so that costs more as well.
