WOW, you did go a long way to have surgery.  I hope you have good support in your home town.  Good luck on your journey!

Clueless about weight loss and weight loss surgery of any kind.

Did you have the MGB? How much did it cost you? I'm looking between Dr. Ruthledge and Mexico. Glad all went well.

yes i had the mgb i worked with them over time to get the right price for me. but it was almost half of dr. r.  but keep in mind it being done in mexico you will not have alot of pre op test that dr. r. will do. you will have blood work ,ekg and have a dr. check you out before suregery. dr, r. will use diffrent knock out drugs etc... but in my case i fought my insurance  for 8 years and spent more than the surgery was going to cost me. so my only option was to get it done for the best price.  but over all limarp was a good choice for me and it was a good facility. to date 3 weeks post op and im down right @ 50 lbs. no problems so far. good luck .

Im appreciate your response. I am going for a  RNY  bypass.My question is why didnt Dr Pompa  head the surgery?

Also I am so confused ,can anyone share any  real experiences about Bentencourt/Emmanuel Medical Center?  They have a good price,but is it to good to be true? I am going crazy trying to decide.
