eccampbe reacted to DeFl1976 in Looking for a great doctor in Tijuana. I'm torn between three
I just had my surgery for a gastric sleeve with Dr. Illan on Wednesday, December 14th. Everything went wonderful. I was up the next morning. Dr. Illan was so nice. Inwas lucky and didn't have really bad gas pains(thankfully). The hospital, nurses and vallet guys were amazing. I traveled alone but was never actually alone they have amazing and kept me good company. I went to the hotel Friday morning and get to go home today. The hotel was beautiful it was Hotel Pueblo Amigo and yesterday one of the vallets took me out shopping and to an amazing restaurant for some broth. My experience has went above and beyond. I researched so much and then researched my research Dr. Illan has given me a new life journey and I am so happy. I go home today in a few hours and can't wait. I have 2 friends that are going to be coming to Tijuana in February or March to have surgery with Dr. Illan.

eccampbe got a reaction from Bon Appetit in Looking for a great doctor in Tijuana. I'm torn between three
I've been researching constantly for the last three months trying to decide between three doctors in Tijuana. I haven't been able to find anything negative about any of them so I'm not sure what my deciding factor should be. My decision is between Dr. Ramos Kelly,
Dr Alejandro López Ortega, and Dr. Jalil Illan with Bariatricpal team. -

My pcp is working with me. I also have set up appointments with local weight management doctors, nutritionists, and exercise specialists. They don't know I am getting the surgery in a week, but they do have my blood work and physical. After surgery and meeting them, I will let them know. This should be interesting.

I went to my surgeons office every two weeks after surgery until 6 weeks out.. then we go every 3 months. Until 1 year out. I have also visited my PCP twice since my surgery (3 months ago)for follow up. Your PCP knows you best and should be able to assist you with most things, but I also believe Bariatric offices around you should be willing to see you. It's no different than someone moving after surgery..

I can't say anything to help you but I can say that I believe in Medical Tourism in Mexico. I had mine done there with a different surgeon than the ones that you are interested in and I don't think that we (my wife was my travel companion) could have been treated better.
