    Emerald07 got a reaction from svancisenicky in Dr. Ariel Ortiz at the OCC   
    Hello Everyone and thanks in advance for your help.
     
    I have been researching plication surgery for months now and is seriously considering having the procedure done with Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana. I love the fact that OCC is a Center for Excellence ,that  the team is highly experienced, and that Dr. Ortiz  holds a certification from the American Society of Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery. With all of that being said I am still very nervous about having surgery in TJ. I have read research studies on plication surgery and found that this is a favorable procedure and  is close to being approve here in the States by the FDA.  I would love to hear from current and former patients about their experience with plication with Dr. Ortiz and his team. I would like to know about any complications, follow up care, pre & post dieting and your overall thought and feeling about deciding to have this procedure done with Dr. Ortiz and his team. I have been turned down my insurance 3 times and feel that going south of the border is my last option since out of pocket expenses for this surgery here in the States is sooooo high and I cant afford it.
     
    Thanks again
