MORE forums for MGB?

I am a loyal bariatric pal reader/writer, but there just aren't enough MGB patients on here for me to find enough information.

Does anyone else have any other favorite forums for MGB? I am interested having my operation in India or Mexico, maybe even Italy. There is even a doctor in India (i think) that is doing robotic MGBs. I'm off to google now.


Thanks in advance,

      Great question! I'm having Mini Gastric Bypass in Mexico in March. I would be very interested in talking with others who have had the procedure or who are planning to have it.

    What exactly is the mini gastric bypass? Is it for people that need to loose less weight? Never heard of this. Is it new?

    MGB is also know as single-anastomosis gastric bypass. IIRC it was developed by Dr. Rutledge about 20 years ago.

    EWL is about the same as with RNY bypass.
