As anyone heard of ponce de Leon?

I am having my surgery with him on March 20. I have heard nothing but good about Dr. Ponce.

Hi there,

I had surgery with Dr Ponce on Feb 14, I was amazed how smoothly everything went. My total time for surgery ended up less than an hour for the gastric sleeve. From the information I was able to gather he's been a surgeon for the last 19 years. I worked with Trish his coordinator and everything was great. You can contact me anytime if you want more information, I was so glad I choose him, everything went as expected not tooo much pain (oh there is going to be pain) I didn't use INT hospital but I was given a tour and they have great faculties- only difference I could tell was the bed for your partner/husband etc is smaller at INT but that's really no big deal. Trish held my hand from the moment I got to TJ until I left, she took me shopping visited everyday at the hospital and hotel. She even brought my aunt coffee every morning!! and offered to take me the beach- I declined I didn't want to be in the car that long yet.

Make sure to contact me if you would like to talk or have any questions I'll be happy to answer anything!!

on a happy note I'm down 25 lbs as of today (including pre-op diet)

Wow! Good for you!! Thanks for the info. Keep up the great work.

I had my surgery Oct.14 with Dr. Ponce and he and his whole team are great! I was at the INT hospital and it was great as well. I just got back yesterday from going with a friend who just had the surgery with Dr. Ponce. She went thru Trish and the level of care Trish gives is beyond wonderful!! I wish Trish had been coordinating for Dr. Ponce when I had my surgery. She even brought me dinner to the hospital. Her assistant called my friend today to check on her and to answer any questions and will be calling weekly!! She also got a video of her surgery! I would not even consider another doctor. There are several bariatric doctors in Mexico who had the surgery. Guess who they chose?? Dr. Ponce!!! I would also be happy to answer any questions! Oknev@Aol.com

Thanks. That's pretty impressive !! Sounds like it was a good experience!

Yes, great! I can give you Trish's cell number if you want. Give my name so she knows. I don't get anything just trying to spread the word!

From my understanding Dr Ponce has just as much if not more experience as the main surgeons in Tijuana. The only difference is that his english is not as great but his team and Trish are there for you at all times. If you want your experience to be smooth sailing and a quik recovery I would choose Dr Ponce all over again and again and again. Good luck and God Bless your decision.
