I was just wondering if anyone has had surgery by this Dr. and would be willing to give me information on him and his Clinic. His site says he is Cert. by INAMED, but I am making sure I am doing all my homework before I decide what Dr. to use. I know there are a lot of good ones in Mexico, so I am trying to decide, and any help would be appre:confused: ciated.

Thanks,

Shelley

I just had my surgery done by Dr. Huacuz. He is just great.

Had my Band install by Dr. Huacuz on Oct 21st ,2005. Have lost 100 lbs. My experience was excellent and would recommend him to anyone.

The Molding Clinic and Dr. Huacuz have disolved that practice. He can is not authorized to put on the American Lap Band due to a problem with a patient. Andres Betancourt has opened Betancourt Medical who have a great surgeon and staff. Andres has 13 years of experience and is also banded. If you need any more information go to Betancourtmedical.comhttp://home.comcast.net/~terryrohr/Pics/beforeafterShirley.jpg

Here are my befor and during pictures

I dont know where you are getting your information but for what I know Dr. Huacuz is authorised to work with the INAMED company.

I call the Inamed and call them to get all copy of documents and make sure that he is a Inamed approve Surgeon, I did all this research before my surgery that has been 1 year ago by now.

all the patients that I had spoke from his Hospital, have Inamed brands o.k....

YOYO

I don't know where they got their information either. I was banded in a hospital in Tijuana by Dr. Huacuz in November 2005 and have an IMAMED band. I also did my research ahead of time.

dr. huacuz put in my band and it is INAMED, i saw it before he did my surgery. they let you open the box and it comes with a card that has the id number and certification, so you know you are gettin the correct band. you carry the small card in your wallet in case you ever need to replace your band. it has the seriel number and all that stuff. good luck. i lost over 90 lbs and am doing great.

YOYO,

I'm with you. I'm not sure where that info is coming from.....

Dr Huacuz has his own clinic & he is indeed authorized to put in Inamed band. He did mine in March 12, 2007. I also checked with Inamed, & in fact have my band serial number.

I had follow up here in the U. S. & everything is exactly where it should be. In fact the Dr. that did my fill said the placement was perfect.

Hey I didn´t know he had his own support group!!!

WHAT A GREAT IDEA!!!!

I will see you there....

:clap2: YOYO

I Had a Lap Band 7 months ago with Dr. Huacuz

and I had the best experience ever, know my husband is thinking about getting the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy with Dr. Huacuz, is anyone familiar with this procedure?

I´m really sorry about the bad experience that you and your wife had.

Dr. Huacuz and Betancourt are no longer together since 3 years by now, and he was his own clinic. I had the best of the experiences on his clinic he ask me two stay 2 day on his facility, and the nurses were so carrying all the time that I has there. if I had the chance to do this one more time, I´m positive that I will go to his surgical center again.
