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,

I would suggest you get on the MGB pre-op list and ask.  There are alot of folks going through the same packet prep you are.  Good Luck!

Hi all,

  We will be having our first support group meetings on March 10 at 5:30pm and March 14 at 10am in the Charles Cole Hospital conference room.  These two meetings will be identical.  They will be informational meetings to meet and greet and  get valuable feedback from all who attend.  We want to know what you want in future support group meetings.  Hope to see you there.

Hi,

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

Topic: change docter's name
Does anyone know how to change the surgeons name ? I am using Dr. Pompa not Dr. Aguirre.
I couldn't find a topic for this in the help section.

Topic: MGB reversal

Hi, fellow MGBers!

Has anyone here had their MGB reversed?  If so, I'd love to talk to you about it.

Thanks,
