But wont this be totally skewed because this is primarily an American board? The results wont mean a lot surely.

I'm Having Mine Done In Mexico By Dr. Zapata On August 10,2007.. Can't Wait I've Heard Nothing But Wonderful Things About Him And His Staff. I'm A Member Of 4 Different Lap-band Support Groups And I Can't Find Anything Bad About Him Or Is Staff Anywhere. Thank God!

I did a poll on here a year ago with the same thing and more than half were banded in Mexico. I had Dr. Zapata/Sanchez and he is wonderful. I would do it over again in a heartbeat and the hosptial was much better than the 4 here in the states I'd had surgery in. Not a clinic a huge full trauma unit hospital, Santa Agracias. I'll try to find that thread for you.

I had mine done at Roger Williams Hospital in Providence, RI with Dr. Dieter Pohl
