Congrats! Prayers and well wishes have been sent your way. Let us know how you are doing...God bless! Rose

I have been looking into WLS for years now and was under the impression that the lapband would be right for me. However, after further research I have really come to like the VSG. So now it's a matter of gathering more info (can you ever have enough? lol). I plan to be a self-pay patient because our wonderful insurance companies would rather treat all the comorbidities that come with obesity rather than to treat the actual problem . So my questions are: 1) Has anyone used Global Surgery Center? 2) Has anyone had VSG surgery with Dr. Edgar Leino in the Dominican Republic? 3) What was the cost? Look forward to any and all replys!
