Hi, I am going to Dr. Ortiz on April 3rd for Lap Band. I am excited and nervous about the sugery.I was wondering if anyone out there is going around the same time. I would love to meet other people from the US or canada that will be there in the first day's of April. Look forward to hearing from you.

I am also being banded in April by Dr. Ortiz- what is your date?

My decision has been made. I will go to Dr. Ortiz on April 3rd for my lapband. I can't wait!!!

Appointment made with Dr. Ortiz for April 3rd!!!!!! I am so excited. 1month 4 weeks and one day to go!!!

I am hopefully going to be banded by Dr. Ortiz in Mexico on April 3rd!!! I am self pay so income taxes have alot to do with it, but I also have to wait for spring break . I would love to know anyone else who maybe takeing a trip to him. To make it even sweeter my birthday is in April and I will be turning 30 and starting a new life at the same time.

Yes it is defiantly the price. The cheepest I found in Louisiana is 13000. I would love to find a doctor within driveing distance that is reasonably priced. Dallas is about 6 hours from here. Give me more info, Please.

I need help decideing between Dr. Huacuz, Dr. Guillermo Alvarez or the Doctors at Obesity Goodbye in Mexico. I have insurace here in the US but it doesn't cover weightloss sugery. I have been doing research since October of 09 and can't decide between the 3. I would love to know if you have used any of these doctors and the results. Or any suggestions you may have will be greatly appreciated.

I am wondering if there is anyone else from the central Louisiana area. I am from Alexandria. I am considering going to Mexico to have Lapband- my insurance won't cover any weight loss surgery- thank you state of Louisiana. I would love to hear from anyone around here!!!

Hi, I am from Louisiana. I am considering having Lapband in Mexico. My insurance won't cover it here. I will have to pay for it out of pocket. The lowest quote I got was 13,000. How much is it in Mexico?

I am so glad that there are other people that are just as unsure as I am. I attended a seminar last week and would really like to have the procedure done. I will find out this week if insurace will cover it. The thing that worries me the most is the post op diet. I really love food and here in Louisiana- food is a huge part of our life. Will I still get to eat some of the foods that I love- like rice and bread?
