  1. Hello! I am new to this and am considering getting the surgery. I have looked into the cost for the sleeve in Los Angeles and they want $19k, Dallas, TX $12.5k and recently Obesity Help.com and was contacted by a clinic in Mexicali, MX. The doctor's name is Dr. Acevedes at Almater Hospital. Since he is in Mexico the surgery is much more affordable at $9.5k. I have read the patient testimonials and googled him but I am wondering if you have heard of him or know of anyone who has had surgery at the center or if you know what additional precautions or steps to take before considering a surgery at his facility. PLS HELP!
