So glad you are doing well melshell, keep us posted on your progress Hope everyone is doing well. Tab2012, there aren't a lot of posts on Cancun surgeons here but you may be able to find more info on you tube. dr. verboonen & Dr. Perez actually work together I heard.

Yes, definitely one of my biggest concerns so that would be great!! Thanks maybe we can chat on the phone prior to going. Let me know. Thanks again

Looking forward to a lot of great things in 2013 for all of us. I'm sure we will run into each other in January and melshell1, please let us know how it goes for you next month.

Hi, I was originally scheduled in September but changed my mind last minute (regret that, LOL) and wanted to go in December but my work load is too much right now and I would definitely have to get right back to work if I go in December as my work is very strenuous so I can't go in December but will be going in January or Feb for sure!! abetterme, that is great you are going to Dr. Perez also. I am hoping I can schedule it for Jan 11th also. Are you in Florida also?

If anyone is planning on going to Cancun next year please let me know. Most of the posts are to surgeons in Tijuana but I hardly ever see Cancun. I am hoping to go in January or February I am in Florida so would rather fly closer than all the way to San Diego. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving

Do you mind telling me who the surgeon is in Cancun that you found negative review on? I am scheduled to go to Cancun with Dr. Perez and obviously nervous so if there is anything that I need to know, I would appreciate the info. Thanks

I was supposed to have my surgery in Cancun at the end of September, I cancelled the night before because I was very scared. I was going alone which was more reasons why I cancelled, if someone was going with me I probably would be sleeved right now. Long story short, I am contemplating rescheduling for December in Cancun and although I will still be going alone, I will need to push myself through it (as hard as it may be). My comfort zone is my house and going away, I get a lot of anxiety so will need to work on that for sure!! Good luck.

Hi, I also go through Ready 4A Change and Alma is my coordinator and has been exceptional. I plan on going December 14/15th as well to have my surgery in Cancun so keep me posted if you are doing the same

I haven't had the surgery yet but planning on going with Dr. Perez in Cancun, there are 2 others who had their surgery with him that I know of and had great results.

Thanks Who is your surgeon?

Thank you Neese, one thing you mentioned was take the steps the surgeon/insurance companies gives and I do think that is important but for me, I am self pay and going to Mexico for the surgery and there isn't any pre-stuff that prepares and assists with my decision. I wish my insurance covered weight loss surgery so I can stay in the USA. I know this will be the best thing for me although a scary process to go through out of the country but once I get home and recover I know I will be able to live a much more happier & healthier life. Thanks again!!

If so, please let me know. Since I cancelled my last surgery due to being scared sh*tless (sorry, LOL) Anyway, if anyone is planning on going to Cancun, please let me know I really need a change (an improvement rather) but mentally has totally hindered this entire process. A friend of mine said she can go with me in March but really don't want to wait that long so am hopeful to be able to go in December. I turn 43 in December so I would like to make my birthday one where I take back my life. I know a lot of people go to Tijuana but since I am in Florida, Cancun is a lot closer. Thanks

Thanks for posting this as I am in the undecided position at this time. I want to lose the weight but not enjoying food (even healthy food) and not being able to enjoy social outings. I look forward to everyone's response

I am an emotional wreck today, I have never been to Cancun and going alone for surgery sounded great months ago when I was preparing for this but now that the time has come I am scared. For those who went to Mexico alone, can you please give me some reassurance? Thank u

My surgery is on Sept 28th w/Dr. Perez, if anyone else is going around this time please let me know. Thanks!
