I went to Dr. Sanchez and the entire procedure was $7,999. He is a wonderful surgeon and the Santa Engracia hospital is American owned and super nice, clean, state of the art modern. It rivals any care I could have gotten in the states. Be very sure you have aftercare arranged before you go the Mexico route. I live in the very south tip of Texas so it has been very easy for me to meet Dr Sanchez when he is in Matamoros, and he also referred me to a doctor 45 min away for fills. He gave me his personal cell number, I called several times and he is very glad to answer any questions and very compassionate. I will gladly talk to you if have any questions. Message me if you want my phone number!

I was banded by Dr. Sanchez - wow, what a great experience. Everything is first rate from the driver who picks you up at the airport, to the hospital and its wonderful staff, to the guest house which is so much better than staying in a hotel.

I would recomend Dr. Sanchez to anyone looking into getting banded.

BUT DO BE SURE THAT YOU HAVE AFTERCARE AND A FILL DOCTOR LINED UP BEFORE BANDING.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
