I just wanted to share the wonderful experience I had going through bajabariatrics.com for my vertical sleeve 2 weeks ago - Dr. Jalil Illan is top notch and the care and treatment I received, both before and after surgery, was more than I expected. I truly feel a greater connection to Dr. Illan and his team then I do with my PCP here in the States - and I love my doctor here - but the care and time was incomparable - the hospital was clean and private (with a great view), the doctor was thorough, knowledgable and friendly (much more approachable than many doctors I have seen in the US), and his coordinator, Omar, is someone I now truly consider a friend - he was with me every step of the way and was much needed support and source of comfort! I work in a hospital in the US and STRONGLY recommend that if you are traveling south for your procedure---choose no one but Dr. Illan and Baja Bariatrics - there is no one better and you will not be disappointed.... Please feel free to message me or ask anything I may have left out that you are interested in by the way, I am 15 pounds closer to a healthier me and couldn't feel better!

Dr. Jalil Illan and his team at Florence/Oasis of Hope Hospital is absolutely the only way to go for bariatric surgery in TJ.....hands down the best experience from beginning to end - I am 2 weeks post-op and down 15 pounds - I was comfortable and felt like family the ENTIRE time - I was in constant contact during the pre-op portion of my journey and all the way through to my first step back in San Ysidro - and they have checked on me several times since my surgery as well (what American doctor does that??) I felt safe and secure and now am on a pathway to a healthier life ahead of me - Dr. Illan was so assuring and kind - I am a very talkative and inquisitive person and he answered all my questions and made me feel at ease - I work in a hospital in the States and I know what to look for - the hospital staff was courteous, attentive and took wonderful care of me - I had a friend with me but when I woke up from surgery, my coordinator, Omar, was the one just reading in the chair in my room until I was awake - he notified my husband when I was out of surgery and kept my family "in the loop" - which of course made it moved smoothly at home. The private, clean rooms at Oasis are definitely a bonus and I even had a beautiful window view! Please feel free to message me if you have any questions - I am happy to help!
