:tt1: Hi! I am looking for a good surgeon in Mexico. I am interested in the "medical tourism" program. Anyone have their procedure done with Dr. Arturo Rodriguez from Monterrey, Mexico. Thanks

Hey there!! I had my surgery in Tijuana w/ Dr. Gabriel Gutierrez. I have been extremely happy with him and his staff. My mother had LB with him as well about 5 years ago and she has referred about 6 others, whom have all been successful! I have heard of Dr. Rodriguez and nothing has come back negative. Definitely check into it! Once you make the decision to be banded, your life will change forever!!! GOOD LUCK! :tt1:

Hi,

I had my surgery done in August at the Obesity Control Center in Tiajuana, Mx with Dr. Ariel Ortiz. It was an amazing experience and Dr. Ortiz is a pioneer in the field of lapband surgery. He teaches doctors in the US how to do it and has performed thousands of lapband surgeries. I go back for fills too because they do them under flouroscopy. Also, if you want more info on Dr. Ortiz, he wrote a book "Lapband for Life" that I got for about $10 on amazon. Good Luck!
