Hello all. I've been a member on here for a few months, mostly reading others posts and gathering more information about the sleeve. I'm finally scheduled with Dr Jaime Ponce de Leon in early September. Has anyone on here ever used him or maybe know of someone who has? I found some info on lapband talk. His patient Coordinator is very friendly and has assured me that he's done over 3000 successful bariatric procedures.

Anyway, many of your stories have been very inspirational to me and have help me make te decision to go through with this procedure. I can honestly say this will be the most extreme thing I've ever done. I'm a bit nervous :biggrin0:, yet quite excited:thumbup:. I would love to hear any feedback, tips, or suggestions from others especially those that may have used this Dr or went to Tijuana, MX for their sleeve.

Thanks

I used a dr in TX but welcome and best of luck.

I am having surgery with him on December 10th, 2010. Good luck and I will definately watch your progress! Please keep posting. :-)

I had a surgeon here in the States, but Welcome! You'll find the Loser's Bench a GREAT place to be!

I'm scheduled with him for October 11th!

I am scheduled with him October 18th at VIDA hospital. I am very excited. Please keep in touch!:thumbup:
