Dr. Jose Rodriguez-Villareal & Dr. Elmo Aramburo Surgery 02/14

I am taking a leap of faith and going to Mexico for a band to sleeve revision. I have a infection in my port and slipped band. I have gained about 50 pounds back. My BMI is 36. I have been watching this forum for a while, first time to post. I would love any information about the doctors and what to bring or expect. Thanks for all your help!!

Betterplace2013,

I went to Dr. Lopez at Mi hospital in Tijuana. He and his wife, Dr. Osuana sometimes operate together, they have 3 different locations. I have nothing but excellent things to say about my entire experience. I used A Lighter Me as my coordinator. Feel free to message me with any questions or concerns you might have. I am more than happy to share my experience with you. Good luck!!

I had my surgery in Juarez on January 9, 2015 by DR. JOSE RODRIGUEZ-VILLARREAL AND DR. ELMO ARAMBURO. They were amazing and the hospital staff were great. I had no problems and as of today I am down 68 pounds. I would go back to Mexico without hesitation.
