Help Finding Loved One In Mexico Who Went For Gastric Sleeve Surgery



Recommended Posts

Please help me find my family. Two family members went to have the vertical sleeve surgery with Dr. Ponce DeLeon. They arrived yesterday and we have not heard a single word from them or the patient cordinator. Who can we contact to find out what is going on??

Thank you both very much for your help! 28 hours after arrival in Mexico, their patient cordinator FINALLY called us back after numerous phone calls and emails to her. She stated she had phone issues. Really?? Does the hospital not have phones?? Or how about the hotel she was staying in?? UGH! This ordeal was very nerve racking!! So scared for my family members for awhile.

FYI~ I did some research on here before posting this issue and came across Trish's information and that she also worked with Dr. Ponce DeLeon. I did try to contact her at the number and it went to a message stating that the voicemail for this number has not been set up yet.

Trish was not my family's patient cordinator. I am also going to have the vertical sleeve surgery in a few months, and I will never again use our patient cordinator due to her lack of communication skills!

Hi,

I NEVER had any of these problems because I went to Dr. Aceves. I highly suggest you look into seeing Dr. Aceves. Nina is his patient coordinator and she ALWAYS has great communiction.

I am so sorry you had this kind of stress. That is unthinkable!

Hugs,

Suzanne

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
