Debra, You won't go wrong if you go with Dr. A. Aceves he was also my surgeon and am very pleased with his work and his after care too. Ruben

You can find more information by reading the surgeon profiles on this website and also just googling them. I did look at this clinic but ultimately went with Dr. Ariel Ortiz and I could not be happier.

Debra, I don't know that clinic personally but I saw a negative post on this message board about a doctor there, it was along time ago though it was about Dr. Verboonen ( I think this is how it is spelled), I wouldn't know how to look up past posts . Anyway I went to mexico too but went to see Dr. Aceves, you can also find him here and read his patient forum or go to his web site, you will be very happy with what people have to say about him. About the fills, his assitant helps you find a doctor near you so you don't have to go back. I can totally recommend him, he is very professional and nice too! Sandy lap band-dr aceves

I have been talking to Nina and she is just great, I have choosen Dr. A. Aceves. Just doing some of the pre talk with Nina now. And waiting to set a date. Thank you for the advice Sandy, I went and read back thur many forums and I found that topic you were talking about on Dr Verboonen, he was arrested it seems for insurance fraud! I guess he is out now, but still that doesnt sound like the kind of Dr. I would want! Dr. Aceves sounds great ... Sandy where do you go in Ga for your fills? I live in South Carolina and there are no Doctors here to go to for those. And how much is your doctor charging if you do not mind me asking. Thankyou

Yep, I have seen that it will be cheaper to just fly back to Mexico to get my fills and pretty sure I will do that. I got my date Sept 30th! I am so excited! Thank you for the information... hey maybe some month a bunch of us can fly down to Mexico and get fills and have a little reunion hahah!

Debra, I went back to Dr. Aceves for my fill, I have a back up plan in TN who charges 500 dlls. If you can have the time you will find that flights are cheaper than what some doctors charge here! Unbelievable huh? You will be so happy with your band and with your doctor. I agree Nina is really great you'll love her, she was a ton of help. Good luck and let us know when you are having surgery.
