PLEASE HELP ME .....I had the lap-band done in the US and now I am having problems with it . I now want to get the Sleeve in Mexico because I cant afford it here in the US. I dont know what doctor to choose , who is the best , what Mexico city is the best to travel to ? Can someone please help me ! I need some advice .....which doctor to choose, which doctor works out of hospitals . Also there are price differences 5000- 9000 , if I choose the one that cost more do I get better service?

All I want is to pick a good doctor for the best price in a clean hospital. PLEASE HELP ME

Mine was 6200 and I can send you info about my dr if you would like.

Dr Alvarez in Piedras Negras. Great surgeon, great staff and I have had no complications. Www.endobariatric.com. Message me if you have any questions.

I went to Dr Aceves in Mexicali. I was extremely pleased with the care I received. The hospital was extemely clean and was continuously being cleaned to keep it that way. The area of Mexico seemed safe. My husband and I went on a walk the night before the surgery. My mother in law and a friend have also had surgery with Dr Aceves. My surgery was this past December, my friend's was last summer and my mother in law's was in October of 2009. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have. Hope this info helps!

I wish you the best. I am so happy after getting rid of my band and getting the sleeve. I did the opposite. I had my band In Mexico and then had my sleeve here since my insurance took off the exclusion. You will do fine in Mexico. The sleeve is so worth it. A friend of mine used Dr. Alvarez and had a great experience. He even wrote a sleeve book so you might want to look into him as well. He has a Youtube sight with lots of his patient's stories.

There is a reason Dr. Aceves is the surgeon who gave over half the board a sleeve. He is an excellent surgeon and practices out of a clean modern hospital. You will not find one unhappy dr. Aceves patients.
