  1. I was banded by Dr. B's clinic on 7/30/2007. Starting weight 397. Would a US doctor touch me....._ell no, because of other medical issues (ie.Huge mesh isertion abdominally). After talking with Dr. B and discussing all options and possbilities, and he was brutally honest with me, I went to Mexico and had the surgery. To date I have been back for two fills, and have lost 119.5 lbs.:smile2::tt2: I was perfectly comfortable in his care and recieved great care. He told me not to come unless someone came with me to stay at the hotel with. He also offered us the hospitality of his home. His nurse came every day. Like most medical procedures though, you have to follow the directions that the doctor gives you. Most people don't. Would I recommend them? Yes, in a heartbeat. When I went back for my fills I met at least twenty to thirty of his patients who were getting the surgery, getting a fill, or had reached goal and came back for cosmetic surgery. Think about both sides of the coin olks and instead of asking for bad news on a doctor, try asking for good news.:smile::tt2:
