This spring Im heading to Mexico for a lap band, and am still researching the Doctors down there... can anyone tell me if they have used Dr. Alverez? if so did you like him, or not? pros/cons please. Also I take medication for diabetes...will be go on the two week clear liquid diet, if so, this is going to really affect me alot as if I dont eat regularly I get very sick...  thanks all of you for all the previous advice..

Hi, Kathy - Check out the user jtaynton.  She lives in Vancouver, WA and had surgery the end of November in Mexico.  She used Dr. Salvador Valencia in Ensenada/Tijuana.  She seems extremely happy with him and his reputation.  Read her blog as she mentions her experience there.  Some dr's require a 2 week liquid diet pre-op and others don't.  Mine did...  I wish you all the best on your journey to WLS.  This is a great site for advice and support!!  Take care... ~Nancy~
