Suits & Scrubs: Retire Early | Gut, Hormone & Weight Management

Have you considered Bariatric Surgery?
In today's episode, we're diving into the world of bariatric surgery, comparing costs and options in the US and Mexico. Did you know the average cost of a gastric sleeve in the US is $19,000, while in Mexico it's just $4,500? We'll explore why gastric sleeve is now the most popular option, its benefits like reduced hunger hormone production, and its lower risks for morbidly obese patients. We'll also cover the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, which offers faster weight loss and better diabetes reversal. Learn about the risks, including ulcers and malabsorption, and the life-changing benefits, such as significant weight loss and improved quality of life. Discover the factors doctors consider before recommending surgery, the complexities of insurance coverage, and the potential dangers of seeking surgery abroad. Finally, we'll discuss alternatives to bariatric surgery like Tirzepatide (Mounjaro and Zepbound).
