Lap Band to Bypass in Mexico?

My doctors here in Maine are just dragging me along for almost a year now I have been trying to get a revision done as my band is no longer functional and they keep telling me to do more dietitian appointments (already have over 15 done) they just say I am to anxious to have the revision done but gosh who wouldn't be.

I have started looking into going to Mexico to have this done instead of waiting for who knows how long from my current doctors. Has anyone had a revision done in Mexico? If so where did you have it done and what was your experience like?

I am super nervous about going to a different country to have surgery.

I would find another dr in your area. I'm sure it is very frustrating having to wait but personally I would not have surgery done in Mexico. Their hospital standards don't come anywhere close to what we have here in the states.
