Physicians abroad are likely more experienced in the balloon procedure because it has only been FDA approved in the US since august of 2015. Therefore, American physicians just haven't had the opportunity to do a lot of these. Having said that, who would provide your follow-ups, med refills or modifications if the surgeon was out of the country. Think twice.

YIKES!!!! So she didn't like what we said so she changed her user name to "byehoes"?????

Eeee gads, if she were my kid...never mind. Sorry I wasted so much time on that long post to her.

Worry not my friends! If "byehoes" does get the money, she'll never pass the psych eval..

I hate it when people delete their OPs. @@Alex Brecher Can we do something to stop that from happening??

And can you fix the Op's name, too? She left us an ugly little insult on her way out. THANKS!

Since inception, we've allowed members the ability to edit their posts for 28 days. I've changed this to 5 minutes.

Also, updated the OP's name.

Even a hour would be great, but when you don't like the responses? Nope.

Here another idea, @@Alex Brecher. FB allows you to edit your posts indefinitely. It also allows readers to read post edit history. Can you do that?

Read again, @@Alex Brecher. I edited it. . . Thank you!

LOL LOL....that's a great idea. We don't have that ability at the moment but we will very shortly. We're updating/upgrading the site in the next few weeks and I'll add this feature to the list once that goes live. Thanks for the idea, I like!!

Unless she lies - which seems to be happening a lot based on some of the threads on here!

One person has gone to a different practice to start over because they didn't "pass" her on the initial psych eval. She indicated she now knows how to answer the questions so it won't be an issue. Another said her psychiatrist and psychologist wouldn't do the eval because it was a conflict so she went to someone else - and didn't bother mention she'd been suicidal in the past (not to mention bat shit crazy based on her posts) because "they didn't need to know".

I don't really know who they think they're hurting besides themselves. I'm somewhat "normal" and asked for additional therapy/counseling for emotional eating.

@krstenle your applying logical and rational thinking to those who are kray kray....

The surgeons have MORE experience??

Hi allyrenee11,

Have you considered surgery in Tijuana Mexico?

The cost is lower and the surgeons have more experience.

Please contact me if you are interested.

Just because one reads a statement on the internet does NOT mean that it is true or factual.

PLEASE research, research and then research if considering going outside the USA for bariatric surgery--or any surgery.

More experienced???? REALLY????? SMH, SMH, SHM.

PRAYERS GOING UP FOR---ALL OF US.

Well he would know as he is a coordinator for BP Mexico. And yes the number of surgeries they have performed is often time much greater than surgeons elsewhere. So yes HIS statement is true and factual!

Wow
