Other - Melbourne, Australia.
But wont this be totally skewed because this is primarily an American board? The results wont mean a lot surely.

I did a poll on here a year ago with the same thing and more than half were banded in Mexico. I had Dr. Zapata/Sanchez and he is wonderful. I would do it over again in a heartbeat and the hosptial was much better than the 4 here in the states I'd had surgery in. Not a clinic a huge full trauma unit hospital, Santa Agracias. I'll try to find that thread for you.
