Central Florida Lapbandsters?

HarleyNana · 02-04-2008, 09:13 AM

Not to steal this thread, but does anyone live in Reunion? We're thinking of buying a winter home there. Any suggestions?

My niece lives in Orlando and I was trying to find a way she could get banded, her ins. does not cover the surgery, tell me how was it going to mexico for the banding. Is it scary or is it in a big hospital and what about price. Any input will be helpful.

Thanks
Maria
I was banded 12/05/07

Dr. Lopez uses a large hospital.

I live in Jacksonville and I know my physician does lap band at an outpatient clinic here and is considerably less. Why don't you try him. It would save you the cost of an air plane and also he is here if she gets in any trouble. His name is Dr. Cywes. Go to Home for more info. Good luck Sharon

I had a great experience in Mexico.

I was banded in December and have lost only about 20 pounds, the only good thing is I have not gained it back. So if I really tried hard I would probably be able to loose slowly and with the Lap Band it's hard to gain it back.
