An emergency room cannot deny you care, it's not a code it's a law. If your life is in danger they have to treat you.
If your life is in danger they have to keep looking until they find someone to treat you. It's getting easier now, in the beginning it was hard to find anyone for after care issues but the tide is turning and more doctors are taking patients banded in Mexico. They see it as advertising. If you were banded in Mexico but your friend has insurance in the US and wants a band, you are likely to refer to your aftercare doctor vs. someone else. So they are seeing the advantages of seeing Mexican banded patients.
All the more reason to get a
sleeve instead of a band if you can't find aftercare before surgery. There is no routine aftercare for sleeves. No fills, untills, restriction issues, etc.
