You can try Alberto Aceves, Ponce de leon, Dr. Joya and Liza Maria Pompa.

I am sure Almanza probably does also.

I have BMI of 30. I'm going to Dr. Aceves in Mexicali. A friend of mine with a BMI of 28 went to Dr. Almanza-Reyes in TJ.

Anyone know a doctor that will do the gastric sleeve on someone with a bmi of 30 ?

Hi Susan

I don't think that any Dr in US will do that surgery with BMI less than 40 except those Patient with BMI 35-39 with majors health problem, I'm in that case my BMI is 34.5 and I looking the posibility to do it in other place with that BMI and some health problems like Hypertension, gastric acid reflux, arthritis, and high risk of diabetes I'm in the need of a final result to my weight, as all of us I has been dieting all my life with the result of gaining back and more the weight lossed in the diet, do more research and ask don't stop and continue looking for your goal.

Good luck

I have a "low" BMI as well. I will be operated in Arhens in 9 days.

My surgeon told me, that

http://www.ifso.com/

does not have the same retrictions on a VSG as a bypass operation.

There fore many surgeons outside USA will operate at a BMI of 30 - Sweden and Greece in Europe, and a lot of other places.

Cross m fingers for you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
