Very happy with him and super happy with the staff at OCA Hospital in Monterrey. OCA is a state of the art facility and all of the staff there treated me like I was a guest in a five star hotel. highly recommended.

I used www.litenfree.com as well. The staff were wonderful. I had a blast and I made some really good friends especially with the patient coordinator Stephanie. She is the patient coordinator that sets up everything at Lite 'n Free. They can get you in super quick and the doctor was great as well. It is a good price and the hospital is so clean and the staff is always smiling. If you have any questions please email me, I will tell you my story. My email is molliebeth.smith@yahoo.com.

I had my band placed by Dr De La Garza 4 years ago. He was wonderful and I have done very well since.

My only issue is that he placed my port was higher than normal, it sits directly below my ribcage. Now that I have lost my weight, it protrudes quite far. I have tried to contact the Dr. via websites but haven't been able to contact him about a solution. Other than that everything else was great.

Hello There,

I don't mean to be rude, but I thought that assistants and doctors were not aloud to go online and solicit themselves like this. I know you are trying to help but this can be discouraging to people as well to know that the assitants and doctors are roaming around reading all of our stuff.

This is a site for banded people, or people looking to get banded. You are not supposed to be writing stuff like this, plus it is kind of confusing, what is obesityoff.com? We are all talking about Lite 'n Free, are you something different?

Anyways, I just wanted to put my point of view out there. I know that Dr. De la Garza is a really nice surgeon and I know that he works for www.litenfree.com as well. That is who I went through like I said above and I had an amazing time. I would have done nothing different.

If you have any questions feel free to email me molliebeth.smith@yahoo.com.

Dr. De La Gaza placed my band and I went directly through his office rather than using the hospital's program (LitenFree. I know Veronica very well and I can assure you she was simply trying to help. Since my surgery I have complete email and phone contact with her.

I had my surgery 7/17/07 and am down 56 lbs today. I also had my gall bladder removed at the same time and have had 0 complications. I like Dr. De La Garza so well that I fly back to him for my fills.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
