Topic: RE: Help finding Dr. in Mexico for Mini Gastric Bypass
Hi,
Have you considered the gastric sleeve? That's what I ended up having and it went great. It was perfomed by Dr. Ponce de Leon and Dr. Verboonen. Recovery is rather quick (about 2 days in the hospital) and you can expect to pay a little over $7,000.
Good luck.

Topic: RE: financing for mgb
I had my MGB surgery done in Tijuana, Mexico with Dr. Ponce de Leon and Dr. Verboonen for a fraction of what I would have paid inthe US. I paid $8,000 and they also offer financing through different institutions. Great doctors, caring staff, nice facilities...Good luck! Paty

Hi,
There are a handful of folks who have had that done due to health reasons. It can be done quite easily.

Does anyone know how to change the surgeons name ? I am using Dr. Pompa not Dr. Aguirre.
