U.S. Bariatrics and Dr. Perez

In December of 2008 I flew to Mexico and had my surgery done. I had to say that was a great experience. But living in Florida posed the challenge of finding a doctor who would take me and give me the aftercare I needed.

After some search I found U.S.Bariatrics and Dr. Perez. I scheduled my first follow up back in January of '09. The staff there was great and Dr. Perez was excellent. Since I am a self pay patient the prices were reasonable and I have since been back for additional follow up appointments. I would recommend Dr. Perez if you are thinking about any bariatric surgery.

Please contact me I wanted to discuss this with you.

How many cc's did he give you for your first fill???

Hiya! He gave me 2CC's for my first fill because we were not sure exactly how much might have already had in my band. The intent is to get up to 5cc's very quickly with the capacity band I have. I most recently did get another CC but that was because I could tell I needed another large fill. He has been very good in listening to me and working with me. I am at 6cc's now in my band and have room to tighten as needed. It's still a lot of work and control on my own but trust me I can certainly tell a difference to what wasn't even a year ago yet.
