Lab Band In Mexico Information



Recommended Posts

I have been researching going to Dr. Rod at the Angeles hospital in JUAREZ, but I am interested in finding out if you have to use Belite, which I think is just a scheduler for them? Can anyone tell me what the service is they offer and if you can infact get it done there with that doctor and not use that service. Thanks

Are you talking about Dr. Arturo Rodriguez? If so, no, you do not have to go through Belite. He has a website you can access for information and phone numbers. :biggrin:

No, sadly if you want to go to Dr. Rodriguez you are stuck with Belite. Same with a few other docs.

Just remember, Belite isn't going to do your surgery, Dr. Rod is. He is very good.

If you're interested in Dr. Jose Rodriguez, you can get in touch with them by contaacting Barbara Lozier. She is basically his persaanal asst. She is a marvalous person. Call her at 2107891434. She has been through all of it and will talk and walk you through it all. I went to Dr. Rod on 10-31-07. VERY VERY happy with everythhing. Good luck.

:thumbup:Actually you don't have to go through Belite in dealing with Dr. (Jose) Rod. I called him personally at his office and am going directly through him. Now when I first called the lady didn't speak great english..but enough to get my name and call Dr. Calderon to the phone and he spoke VERY good english. He took my name and number and asked me some questions and said that he would have Dr. Rod call me personally that evening....and sure enough about 7pm yesterday-Fri- Dr. Rod called me and talked to me about the band. His english wasn't as good as Dr. Calderon but still very good. He is having his assistant Lupita contact me today or sometime Monday to go ever the paticulars and surgery date. So you can do directly to them as long as you haven't already started your process through another agency...coordinator or so forth. Have a Happy Mothers day out there to all of us moms.

People get easily confused because there are two different Dr. Rodriguez' in Mexico.

Dr. Arturo Rodriguez is in Monterrey and has never used Belite.

You can contact his office directly if you are interested in the surgery or need anything.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
