Hi iam new to the group. I am wondering if anyone has gone to Mexico for gastric sleeve surgery? If so recommendations on surgeon's also how much you paid and if you used financing. Anything would help I am just doing some research. Thanks in advance

I went to Juarez, Mexico through beliteweight.com.  Dr. Elmo was my surgeon, he was soooo amazing!!!  I had a wonderful experience through beliteweight.com  .  They can give you all the information on cost.  Everything is setup for you all you need to do is get your plane ticket.  They will explain it to you.

As this is the Ontario, Canada forum I think it's safe to say that most of us had our surgeries and went through the process here in Ontario, Canada. Where the surgery is free.

Personally, I wouldn't trust anything else. The program we have is fantastic, and the "hoops" that we have to jump through to move forward just make sense. They monitor your health and well-being. They have nutritionists and social workers to see that you are on the right track and that you *stay there*. They don't just cut you open, take your money and send you on your way. The before and after care, in my opinion, is vital. I couldn't imagine going to some other country and trusting them with my health and my life.

That said, you can find more info on going to Mexico here - http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/mexico/

I actually live in B.C. and here surgery is not free. I am not sure how you got yours paid for but i would sure like to hear about it. The reason i want to go to mexico is that its cheaper I've heard mixed reviews but i actually met a Dr who's patient went there and she said they did an amazing job.
