700 sleeves and no leaks



Recommended Posts

For the record, there is not one person on this board who feels they did not get great care at the hospital in Mexicali and by Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos. More than half the people on this board have gone there, and I think that speaks volumes. Every single one of us keeps recommending them over and over.

for whomever asked about price, there is an 800# on the side of this board with Dr. Aceves' number on it. I do know they charge a little bit less in the summer because it's so hot in Mexicali so they run a special.

If you have a band, it's a little bit more expensive to have the band removed and have sleeve surgery done.

I too am another satisifed patient of Dr. Aceves. I had my surgery the same time as CYates. My fiance, Beardeditalian had his one month after me, he was so impressed with Dr. Aceves, his staff and the care and testing I received. We would go back to him in a heartbeat - in fact, I may have to have my gallbladder out and have tossed the idea around of having Dr. Aceves do it ... only thing is, my insurance will cover it here in the US so it wouldn't be cost effective to travel to Mexicali; however, if that weren't the issue, I'd go to Dr. Aceves without hestitation - I know I won't get the same great care here in the US as I got in Mexico. I have worked in a law firm doing med mal insurance - both defense and plaintiff and I see all the things that can go wrong, along with the carelessness and lack of caring of the hospital staff.

I had my sleeve sugery with Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos on March 1 and would recommend them most certainly. My hospital experience was wonderful, much better than anything I've ever had in Canada or the US. Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos were both just fantastic as was all the staff, and the hospital Almater is super-clean.

You can't put a price on your safety and when you have surgery you are so vulnerable. I think people who go to lesser facilities and less qualified physicians to save money over look this fact, unfortunately often to their detriment.

Dr. Aceves has now done over 900 surgeries with no leaks!! I paid $8750 for my sleeve and it was worth every dollar! He is such a great surgeon and a great guy as well. He told me that when he is not in surgery and away from the practice he feels "lost" This is definetly his calling and he says over and over I stand on my own two feet and that his reputation may be great but if you want to hear his faults just ask his wife. lol I cracked up when he said that because no one person is perfect but he is an amazing surgeon. I had my surgery on March 18th, I had great care, the facility was beautiful and I came home with energy and no need for pain meds. I love Dr. Aceves!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
