My friend and I both went for Surgery in December of last year. It was an AMAZING experience. I even went back for my first fill because the team there made me feel very well supported. Do you have any specific questions I can answer for you?

I was banded in Mexico by Dr. Ortiz and it was a wonderful experience..my insurance did not cover it and would not cover me in the states...it was $8000 and that includes everything...everyone was super nice and supportive..everything was clean and sterile and I felt safe..Any questions let me know..:cool:

How much is Dr. Rumbaut?

I was banded by Dr. Kuri in Mexico. It was a great experience. They take care of everything, including picking you up at the air port or the border. The hospital was beautiful and very clean. The staff was excellent. I feel like I was treated better there, than I have ever been treated here in the states.

My surgery package was around $7500 but I am not sure what the current rate is. Let me know if you need more info.

My insurance would not cover surgery either. My scheduled was scheduled and set up through Med to Go International and my surgery was performed by Dr. Lopez Corvala at Hospital Angeles in Tijuana. Everything went very well. They picked me up from the airport in San Diego and took us to Tijuana. The hospital was new and modern. Very clean!!! The staff was nice and friendly and everyone was extremely helpful. Let me know if you have any questions. Send me a PM.

I too visited Dr Corvala in TJ, & was absolutely satisfied 10/3/09!

Who does your fills?

I loved the Hospital, it was so clean.

I am scheduled to be banded by Dr. Corvala on 6/29/10 at Hospital Angeles in Tijuana. I know that his current price is $5995.00, however mine is more expensive ($7,000) because I am having revisional surgery (lapband over previous gastric bypass). Both prices include pickup at the San Diego Airport, 2 nights in the hospital, drop off back at the aiport and all doctors fees. The only thing not included is your prescription for pain meds/anti-biotics which you pick up at the pharmacy before you leave. Hopefully I can give you more insight after the surgery. Good Luck on your search!
