  1. I also used Dr De LA GAza and thought the whole experience was great. for the price of 8,000 you get an awful lot. the surgery ,anesthesia, nite in hospital and 2 in hotel(which is part of hospital) Meals, meds to take home and the airfare. Plus free Dr for life and fluoro for 2 years. I am going back in 2 weeks by myself for my first fill and dont feel nervous about being alone. Nina takes good care of you.

  2. YES HE IS 15,000 PLUS YOU NEED AND UPPER GI,EKG AND BLOOD WORK. HE PROVIDES 1 YEAR FREE FILLS. i JUST GOT BACK FROM MONTERREY AND HAD MINE DONE BY dR DE la gaRZA. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED BY HIM AND THE HOSPITAL. HE CHARGED ME 8300 AND IT INCLUDED AIRFARE,TESTS,1 NIGHT IN HOSPITAL AND 2 IN HOTEL. HE ALSO GIVES 2 YEARS FEE FILLS INCLUDING OVERNIGHT IN HOTEL. DR AVERA DOES HIS AS AN OUTPATIENT SO U GO HOME THE NEXT DAY. i WAS GLAD TO BE IN A HOSPITAL. i AM ALSO A NURSE SO i WAS QUITE HAPPY.


  3. I went to one of Dr Avera's lectures and he seemed real nice . and his place is nice also. But he also charges alot of money and I am self pay. I will be going on thursday to monterrey to have mine done. I have checked out the hospital and its real nice. the price is 8300 dollars which I can afford plus 2 years free fills w/fluoro. If I could afford to have it done closer I would but this is all I can afford. I will let u k now how it turns out. PS. I am also a nurse.


  4. There is a big center in ocean springs on the coast that is supposed to be good. I plan to have my surgery done in monterrey so I will be looking for a fill Md near gulfport, if anyone knows one It would reallly help. the ocean springs doc will do fills but charges $450 which is way too much for this self pay girl My doc in Monterrey does free fills for 2 years with floroscopy but u have to pay to get there. Oh yeah the Ms clinic is the obesity center for south Mississippi.


  5. I still have 2 weeks till I get banded and I think I will have eaten the whole state of Mississippi by then:) Thanks for giving me he heads up so I can warn my husband about the mood changes. POOR BABY just finished goin thru the changes with me and he thought the worst was done. I think he is getting tired of hearing"well this is the last time I eat this" I wish you luck and dont forget there is a reason for prozac and I think this life change qualifies
