please no DR HAUCUZ

[mattintosh 0]

I hada my band in dec 19 in Tijuana with dr. Haucuz he put in a wrong place now i had to do all again. Painfull, a lot money and he keep saying comeback here and I do for you for 7000 again. I am not that crazy, my life is more than money.:biggrin:

Well I rest my case. You get what you are paying for most of the time. About Pompa and 6500.00 banding??

Oh hell this is getting old. How many times are people going to shop for a band like they are looking for a new pair of shoes??? I have a friend that got banded for over 38,000.00. Now here is a person getting banded for 6500.00 and complaining about the surgery and blaiming the Dr. I am so sorry you were injured, really. I am.

WATCH OUT for flashy ads promoting low fee's!! Just because someone advertises on this board does not mean you should use them. JMHO.

Dr. Daniel Huacuz also messed up on my friend`s band. She had her surgery on December 2007 and since then was having extremelly strong pains. Since I have the band as well I kept on telling her that sometimes we do have pain but she needed to check with her doctor. Before surgery Dr. Huacuz called her many times and answered each and every question she had, however this picture changed after surgery, she could not get a hold of him often and every time she talked to him he was very rude to her. Once I called him and while he talked to me I could hear a beeping sound on the background, sounded like he was in the surgery center at the same time - hopefully not performing a surgery.!

Last week, my friend passed out and was taken to the ER with her nails and lips turning purple... when the bariatric surgeon got inside he found an inamed band that was place in the wrong portion of her stomach and on top of that it was an old type of band, one that is not even produced by inamed any longer. My friend said that the day before surgery, Dr. Huacuz showed her small, new band and said that was the style she was getting.... All I know is that my friend is now doing well after the nightmare... she is glad to have that band removed and to be receiving the care of a new doctor.

When I was in my research phase I came across his web site and it says he'll do breast augmentation too. Whatta deal, lol.

You are below your goal weight. That's awesome! I love to see that! There's hope for me, too. To what do you attribute your amazing success in losing the weight? Thank you!

Thank you.

I worked really hard, busted my butt w/cardio, and cut out all white carbs. It really works! Good luck to you!

ANOTHER IMPOSTER...BUSTED?

[tricia1105 0]

Just wondering how these people actually managed to weigh less than their goal weight. That seems like a major accomplishment to me. I want to find out how they did it. Do you have any good advice for me? I'm scheduled for sugery on Apr 22.

That's my hunch.

I'm ALL for telling the truth about doctors (good and bad) but to do this is wrong. I sent it to a moderator, we'll see what happens.

A lot of people don't know what goal weight they want to be. They set it for between 18-24.9... a healthy weight average for their body build. Then when they get to the upper limits of "healthy" they (like me) realize that's not enough. I got to where I want to be. In my case I am still losing slowly and I really don't want to so I need to fix that. My plastic surgeon said he'll remove about 10# in my tt & Lipo. That will put me at a BMI of 21.3 and that is a little lower than I prefer for my body build.

I added a ticker to my sig to shame me into doing things right. ;o) It worked for me when I wanted to lose, maybe it will work for me now that I don't want to lose.

the givaway seems to be the "american citizen" crap with broken english ~~urging us to use Dr Ortiz and not Dr

Huacuz....it just doesn t ring true.

Is there something I am missing, or am I looking at the wrong post? I don't see any reference to Ortiz in the post I thought we were questioning here.

Nevermind, I found it in an earlier post.

I'm getting curious about this. Utahband has posted quite a bit over the last three months and even gave her full name and email address in an earlier post. It's interesting, because one time she relates the story word for word, but puts it forth as a friend's experience. The other time it is the same story, but the pronouns have been changed to "I" and "me." The story is written in decent English like the writer is a fluent English speaker. The shorter messages are not. I suppose the administrators can tell us if all these posts are coming from the same computer. Oh, what tangled webs we weave . . .

What in the world does English have to do with it? Your "friend" is copying your posts word for word and posting them as her own.

Looks a lot like multiple IDs to me.
