Hi! Im in Delta and I went to Mexico on June 26th. 2 months out and 44 Pounds down! Best choice ever. No waiting in Mexico but insurance wouldn't pay here so self pay and couldn't afford it in Grand Junction. Husband did it too and he is down 45.

I am having my surgery on the 17th of this month with Dr. Snyder. I have visited with other docs in the area, and Dr. Snyder was the one for me! I have not heard one single negative comment anywhere about him. All glowing and positive reviews. He trains other doctors in the field. Good luck!

Dr. Snyder is amazing. The best surgeon IMHO. The thing that makes him so great is he doesn't just do surgery and then set you afloat on a crazy and confusing sea of post-op madness. He has classes. He has seminars (NOT just the ones you have to attend in order to see him personally, but seminars that are designed for post-ops.) He has grocery store trips, and tons and tons of support groups. Sadly with you being in GJ some of that might get lost on you, however they do have a phone support group that you can take part in. Love him, love his staff. Nothing but excellent IMO!

Congrats on being approved!!!!!!! That's so exciting! I'm in Denver and I met Dr. Snyder. I like him very much and I know several people who had their surgeries through him at Rose Medical Center. He would've done mine but he wanted $17,500 to do it. So off to Mexico I went for $4650! My insurance wouldn't cover it here. But you'll be in good hands with a great team.

I really need to get info on your support groups, I have had a tough time getting to mine in Parker and really miss them. It would be great to meet a few of you from Denver area. I'm in Aurora, surgery over 1 year ago.

I went to Dr. Elias Ortiz and Dr. Lopez also cared for me as well. I had a terrific time in TJ, MX! Everything about it was awesome and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. However, the flights were insane. Both of my flights were delayed by HOURS! Weather issues mostly and then one passenger had a medical issue. Other than that, it was fantastic! TY for asking!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
