Awesome! Thanx!!!! Amanda RaeJust so you know, my thread heading was not an invitation for drama but a facetious vent about drama. Amanda RaeJust the rumor mill acting up and supposedly coordinators engaging in trash talk against other surgeons. Sigh... Amanda RaeJust another thread stating Dr Garcia has had several fatalities per coordinators, I think? I chose Dr. Lopez, but I am not okay with all this drama. It is discouraging. Who knows what is fact and what are lies to redirect business?Just gotta say... All this A Lighter Me and Ready for a Change coordinator drama is very off putting. It makes it hard for those of us who are putting our money, and more importantly, our lives in the hands of these surgeons to make the right decision, and trust in it. Dr. Garcia. Dr. Kelly. Dr. Lopez. What is true? What is crap? I think I may go back to my original choice. Dr. Ponce. There doesn't seem to be a drama factor and he is well reviewed by people on here. Amanda RaeMexico ranges from $4500 - $10k. Research. Research. Research. I'm doing Mexico myself b/c my insurance excludes it and the sleeve is $20k here in my area. Amanda RaeMy insurance excludes WLS and I cannot afford to self pay here in the States. I'm going South of the border to Mexico... Amanda RaeI'm about 10lbs heavier and shoot for 3/11/13 with Dr. Lopez. Financials pending of course! Amanda RaeEt tu Brute? You're replacing me already! Lol! Just kidding... Amanda RaeI'm accepting cash donations! Just kidding! Lol! Amanda RaeThanks all! Keep me in mind if you win the lottery! Amanda RaeWell hopefully I get this promotion at work!! If I do, then I should be back on track. I'm still going to try and save and hope for the best... Amanda RaeSuper bummed today! I have to postpone my surgery indefinately due to unexpected expenses. Overwhelming unexpected expenses. Not to mention, worry and anxiety. I feel like I will be stuck in this unhealthy shell forever.... Amanda RaeYou have definitely presented one side, Fishy. Don't forget to research Mexican surgeons. Let's not paint all surgeons with one brush? Amanda RaeSending you my prayers! Amanda RaeDr alejandro lopez as well does both. Amanda RaeI'm going over Spring Break to TJ. I am lucky to have my mom and found a Sleeve Buddy too! Things will fall into place... Amanda Rae
