Oh okay, good. Nina is very responsive to email. The first time I emailed for information, she got back to me in 45 minutes and it was a Sunday evening! Good luck with your search. In about 19 days, I'll be able to give you a first-hand account. Yikes! :-)

My bad. They didn't pay for my hotel in San Diego' date=' though I see why you read it that way. I just went down a day before Ernesto's pick-up because I didn't like my flight options Monday morning.

I booked directly with Nina. I don't think I ever called, I did everything via email. I emailed from his website, which I believe is www.mexicalibariatric.com .

I think he does charge more for a high BMI. I think there was an extra 500 charge but is have to look at my paperwork. I was a 50.1 BMI when I first inquired but lost 35 pounds before surgery.[/quote']

I had a high bmi with no extra charge. I think. I financed it so my overall expense is more.

Thanks BellaItaliana & Congrats on getting closer to your surgery. Yes, Please keep us/me updated. Would love to hear your experince :D

 

Amanda,
