    heajon got a reaction from ANewMe16 in VSG In Tijuana, Mexico ANYONE?!   
    I went Nov28 last year. It was seamless! I am down 40lbs. They picked me up at the airport and provided all transportation. I went alone and while that made me a little nervous I didn't mind it at all once I got there. I slept a lot after surgery when I wasn't up walking the halls. If I had someone with me They would have been bored! I work in a hospital and their methods and handoff procedures are what we do here. The "hospital" was more of a dedicated surgery center but the care was great. The after stay in the hotel was fine too. Room service would bring bottled Water, Popsicles, and broth when I called. It was all included in the surgery charges. I did tip them a dollar for delivery. The hotel was very nice. Everyone spoke good English. We went to an outpatient radiology clinic the day after surgery for an upper GI to check for leaks. They took you there and back as well. There were 3 ladies that all had surgery the same day as I did. We got to chat a bit when walking the halls and going to the tests so I didn't feel alone. They sent me home with starter meds, Water and antacids. The TSA just scanned my larger liquids on the plane ride home. I felt safe and comfortable the whole time.
    Take ear plugs. Tijuana is a big loud city And they like to party! Lots of loud music everywhere at night it seemed!
