Dr. Garcia - Gall Bladder - Just Fyi

I called Alma and asked if Dr. Garcia takes out gall bladders. She said I will have to discuss it with Dr. Garcia when I get to mexico for my sleeve. If he agrees, based on health, it will be $500 extra.

I don't have any issues right now, but I would like to get it out now, before they start.

    I thought Dr. Garcia was great about going the extra mile. He did my surgery with only 2 incisions because my liver was small enough he didn't need more! I was worried about needing my gallbladder out and have heard horror stories about inflamed gallbladders, but I guess it didn't warrant removal! You are going to be in very capable hands when you go!

    Did you ever get your gallbladder removed?
