magazine article

I am a journalist who is writing a story on weight-loss surgery abroad for a national women's magazine. (I was banded in Mexico two years ago.)

I am writing this article to inform readers about the things they should consider when choosing a surgeon. I'm looking to talk to patients who provide such information on:

--Difficulty in find follow-up care in the U.S.

--Opportunity to get surgery with low BMI

--Stories of mistakes/ bad hospitals/ unskilled surgeons (I know these aren’t the majority but want to provide information on how patients should avoid them and find the good ones – I don’t need to name doctors)

I can protect your privacy. Please contact me directly at serichards332000@yahoo.com.

Thanks,

Sarah Richards
