I am thinking about getting the super sleeve and have Dr. Jose Rodriguez do it. How did it go? What was the process like? Who did you use to book with Dr. Rod? Has anyone heard anything about the super sleeve also known as Laparoscopic total gastric vertical plication (TGVP)?

I am thinking about having a Super Sleeve done in at Star Medica Hospital, 15 mins across the border from El Paso, Texas in Juarez, Mexico by Dr. Jose Rodriguez. The cost is $6200 for everything. Has anyone gotten the super sleeve done or know of anyone that has. OR Has anyone worked with this company or Doctor or even hospital? Can I trust them with my money and more importantly my life? Here is the Info they gave me on the super sleeve: What is super sleeve? Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is not as simple as any other gastrectomy. Gastric tube size influences both the degree of weight loss and weight stability. A large sleeve predisposes to gastric dilatation (stretching) and weight regain. Inexperienced surgeons tend to create large tubes (:thumbup: or to leave back large remnants of the gastric fundus. A standardized technique with a gastric capacity less than 100 ml (A) is mandatory in order to get the patient to achieve a durable weight loss. The sleeve should be super which means a small gastric sleeve diameter and a higher degree of restriction. With the gastric capacity being restricted to 60-80gr and Ghrelin (the appetite hormone) totally suppressed, the resultant weight loss is predictable and comparable to those achieved with gastric by-pass (60-70% EWL), without any serious complication or side effects (e.g. Vitamin mal-absorption). We believe the Super Sleeve to be a very effective and safe bariatric solution even for super-obese patients.

I am talking with BeLiteWeight.com right now about getting the “Super Sleevectomy” at a Mexico facilities (Star Medica Hospital, 15 mins across the border from El Paso, Texas in Juarez, Mexico at the cost of $6,200. Has anyone already gotten this done or heard anything about it? Has anyone had Dr. Jose Rodriguez before? HERE IS THE INFO THEY SENT ME: What is super sleeve?
