:help:I was planing on using dr kuri in tj Mexico in early jan.

I emailed the planet hosiptal which was on an old site though google. anyway they phoned me today "amy" and said he no longer does surgery there and not to go with him. That this is not us certified.

does anyone know anything about this, its really upsetting. is this just sour grapes, and a recruiter?

any info would be very much appreciated.

I had surgery wth Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana- just type his name on google and the website is there. He is highly recommended and has a lot of experience. He did 900 lap bands last yr alone. I do think there are reps from USA doctors who monitor these blogs and try and scare people away from Mexico. Check out Dr. Ortiz. I was pleased with the surgery.

Hello! Here's Dr. Pedo Kuri's new website:

Lap Band Surgery - Dr. Kuri & Associates

I've heard a lot of great things about him. However, you might want to seriously consider using a surgeon within the United States. The surgeon I used was Trace Curry from Cincinnati, Ohio and he is outstanding. If you are a self-pay, he only charges $14,900. He has an excellent staff! His website is lapbanddoctor.com

Good Luck with your surgery! =-)

The reason I state you might want to go to a U.S. Surgeon is I found out I had a hiatal hernia AFTER my lap band. I was fortunate enough that my surgeon repaired the hernia. It is my understanding some surgeons will not repair the hernia while placing the band and this can cause slippage and erosion. Something to seriously consider.

      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?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
