Got My Surgery Date For Dr. Aceves!
I agree with Jen. I had surgery with dr aceves on June 30th and he also repaired a hiatal hernia I had no pain it was more discomfort from drain but I was up walking 2 hrs after surgery I had to go to bathroom lol you walk very slow but I pushed myself I went alone and felt very safe and I'm going back for him to do my follow up. Its cheaper for me to fly to Mexicali than pay my copayment in California I even found out Almater hospital is blue shield approved.. But for $150 I get all my labs and upper gi and barium swallow. It just gives my piece of mind to see everything working good. Oh and if you want something stronger for pain ask the dr because all the nurse gives you is a dissolvable pill for pain but if dr orders you something stronger they have to follow his orders. The pain pills are Supradol 30 mg there is only 4 pills in a box when you go home. I bought 6 boxes. And the ppi is pantozol 20 mg I also bought 6 boxes plus I bought my husband thyroid medicine is so much cheaper I think I spent $60 total.

Surgery In Mexico...3 Month Follow Up?
Mine is an upper Gi and barium swallow test and labs it's only $150 for this. for me it's cheaper to fly and get test done than going to my PCP and go to get labs done I still haven't meet my $5000 decuctible And it's just piece of mind don't want to wait to long if there was a problem I cant see or feel.

Dr Aceves Mexicali
I'm 5 days out of surgery with Dr. Aceves in Mexicali at Almater hospital, I had a great experience I would do it again in a heart beat and for those worried about having surgery in MEXICO I was so excited to find out Almater is on blue shields preferred provider list. As well as Zurich and MetLife and Allianz. I thought I would share this info. Any dr you choose is personal preference and I know many in Tijuana have great success also.
