i had it done in philadelphia at lankenau hospital. the doc. is not there anymore but he is now in maryland. i lost a lot of weight close to 100 lbs. i can eat anything – in small portions,–lay off the sweets- and take your damn vitamins–is what i keep hearing. when you get the flu or intestinal flu get a marriage liscense for the bathroom cause it hits twice as bad. ive had no problems but the two month period after they cut me from chest to stomach was complete and utter hell. it hurt so bad i was stuck on roxicet and vicodin and on top of that? i have severe fibromyalgia{asked a q. about it} so it was not all good. but now im ok, still big but feel better.

Gastric Bypass Surgery/gastrectomy/lapband (all types of weight loss surgery) is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges obesity surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.
I have also read that they arrange financing for american and canadian patients as obesity surgery is not covered by insurance.They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your lobesity surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
My cousin got her obesity surgery in India throught the forerunners healthcare .SHe is more than very happy with the results.She has lost 65lbs in 5 months.She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company.hope this helps
