Donna34 Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 I was on a message board talking to other patients who had gone to MX for surgery, I could have SWORE it was this one! Anyway, it was right before Christmas, and whoever I was talking to sent me information, and it was about having the surgery in MX, and they had different packages, depending on the hospital you chose, and there were like 4-5 different hospitals. Lowest pkg was 7,000. Someone even called me about it. Anyway, hubby talked me out of it, but NOW I'm desperate, I'm so tired of being fat! I "thought" it was in Monterey, MX but that may be wrong too??? Any help, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pamela Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 My opinion is that Dr. Ortiz is the best for the Lapband procedure. He has performed over 4000 surgerys and wrote a book called "Lap Band For Life". The website is www.obesitycontrolcenter.com The facility is very clean and nice and the people are great. I do not have one regret! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbflorida Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 I was banded by Dr. Ortiz Nov. 30. Going there was the best decision I ever made, the facility is awesome and cleaner than any hospital I've ever been in here - Not that I have a lot of experience, but PA, NJ and FL - none of them came close to OCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't WAIT to get this surgery behind me though. I'm a BIG CHICKEN, and the thought of surgery is S-C-A-R-Y. PLUS, I've never been on a plane!!!! Can you imagine that? And I'm terrified to fly!! SO, I'll be conquering many fears on this trip! LOL Looks like the time spent there will be like a mini vacation with a surgery thrown in! Anybody got any advice on what to do while in the area?? Me and hubby don't drink, so bars are not something we would be interested in. Would love to see the ocean though. ANy nice beaches close? And how do you get around there, cabs? Thanks for any replies, I know i have a LOT of questions! LOL Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
