This yahoo group has been created for those that have traveled to Bogota, Colombia to have their Gastric Bypass surgery with Dr. Valencia; AND those who are planning to visit Bogota, Colombia to have their Gastric Bypass Surgery. This group is designed for before AND after surgery support including but not limited to nutrition, emotional support, help in finding physcians in the United States for aftercare. Also you will find a database of members that have had their surgery in Bogota with Dr. Valenica, their own personal stories, and a FAQ section. Those that have questions about GBS in Bogota will be able to find all of their answers here. Membership must be approved by the moderator. There will also be a place to post your before, during and after photos. Here, you will be able to find members that are willing to give a telephone number for those that are pre-op so that you may call and hear their own personal stories. Thank you!

The following will not be tolerated: criticism for those that are choosing to go out of the states for their surgery, criticism of any kind, and
drama.

CURRENTLY ALL MEMBERS ARE SUBJECT TO THE MODERATOR'S APPROVAL DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF SPAM WE ARE RECIEVING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.
