| Surgery presents risks regardless of where it is performed. The question to ask is "will the benefits of this surgery outweigh the risks?" There are plenty of options for weight loss surgery in Mexico; you need to make an informed decision. 1) Make sure price alone is not your determining factor. It is important that you choose surgical facilities equal to or better than you would use at home. Is the procedure performed in an accredited hospital with an equipped ICU? Many weight loss surgery facilities offer low cost surgeries by using substandard facilities or same day surgery centers. While lap band surgery in Mexico is a fairly low risk procedure, obese patients present risks normal bmi patients simply don’t face and need the safety of a fully equipped hospital. There are unscrupulous doctors that cut costs by re-using surgical tools meant to be disposable or inserting used ports when doing repairs. If the weight loss surgeon you chose is lower than all the others that should be a red flag. 2) Does this surgeon/facility accommodate a support person? You should be free to travel with a support person and the hospital should provide accommodations for that person to stay with you. 3) Does your surgeon have people you can call for references? Please always check the references provided! 4) Lap banding in Mexico is still the least expensive, least invasive method of weight loss surgery but it does require maintenance, and a low percentage occasionally fail for a variety of reasons. When choosing a surgeon, it is important to select a lap band surgeon that is experienced in several weight loss surgeries so you have options if a problem occurs. Lap band surgery has been performed in Mexico since the mid 1990’s, and many of the Mexican surgeons have many years experience over the US surgeons with both the surgery and lap band diagnostics. Mexico can be a viable solution for those whom have minimal or no insurance coverage for weight loss surgery and simply can’t afford to pay the price of U.S. medical care. There are many options, so do your research and never be afraid to ask questions! | ||
