Where to start!!!
Hello and thanks to all that are good to answer all my questions on here. I have another one. I was wondering what do you do to get started, if you go to Mexico. Do you have to get a phsy evaluation and all blood work done here first? Do they do anything like that there. Also how long till you call and get things going, till you can have a date? Again thanks for all your help. I hope I am a loser by spring!

Depending on who you see, you could be a loser by next week if you wanted to! All you have to do is call the surgeon, make a date for surgery, and there ya go! Some surgeons, depending on what type of surgery, will ask you to do a two or three week pre-op diet, but most don't have any pre-op stuff you have to do prior to going there. They do blood tests and all that when you get there.
I wish you all the best!
Cheers!

they are really flexible there. they do the pre op the night before your surgery. all other paper work you do is usually on line. you really don't need a psych eval unless you are trying to get approval from insurance. most docs down there will work with your schedule and do it when you say you want. i wish you the best of luck. i have lost almost 90 lb since june and i went to dr aguirre it cost me 9400.00. i would have paid 10 times that much for these results. to think of all the money is pent on weigh****chers and diet pill.
good luck!
