Can I use my FSA card (Visa symbol) to pay for my surgery in Mexico? It's really my only option to paying cash. I am at the limit and really think that my insurance may deny me because I'm otherwise healthy (BMI fluctuating 39.0-40.0).
That is a hard one. Have you talked to you Primary Care Doctor? I found a Primary Care Doctor who knew about weight loss surgery, but it took a little hunting. I posted on the boards and FB groups and really did not have much luck, but then, I went to some of the local Baritaic groups and talked to people at the groups and found a local doctor. Good luck.
Hi,
I'd like to get surgery in Mexico, but am concerned about coming back to the USA and not finding anyone to help me if I have a complication. Did anyone experience this?

I found researching Drs in Mexico really hard. I don't know much about either one of them. Have you looked at the Duodenal Switch? Is more effective for high BMI's.
Kathy, would you please pm me as well with any info on Dr Quinones??
Just got an approval and what insight before I schedule. Thanks in advance...

Follow up - I went with United, all end seats. I'll get there nice and early for each flight so that I can ask for an extender early on.
Flights are booked and surgery is scheduled!
