Hey there! I am not the risk taking type, but when I found about the policy excluding any type of weight loss surgery, I thought I was out of options. I got on the internet, YouTube actually and saw a girl, Jo is her name, talking about surgery in Mexico. The rest is history, after a lot of research, I went to Dr. Garcia in TJ and loved him and his team. My husband was a little nervous, but just because I chose to go alone for him to stay behind and care for the little ones. Tell your wife to try not to worry. A lot if these surgerons are EXTREMLY qualified and the care was fantastic. There are lots of posts on here where we share our experiences in detail. People are so willing to answer your questions and you can be assured you are talking to real people. I sit and type this on the floor in my room listening to my kids laugh at my husband Best of luck to you!!!
