Dr. Ponce De Leon & Trish

Where do I start... I am still in Tijuana at the hotel, i was sleeved monday night. Trish is my coordinator and I don't think there are enough words to express how sweet & caring she is. I went alone so having Trish there with me was a godsend.

Dr. Ponce is an excellent doctor with an awesome bedside manner. He doesn't speak english but Trish is there to translate and I had no problems with asking questions. I got a dvd of my surgery and my swallow test/xray. There should be more talk on these boards about Dr. Ponce, most people talk about Aceves, Garcia, & Kelly but I think Dr.Ponce should be right up there.

I was nervous of this journey but as soon as i met Trish in person and Dr. Ponce I knew I was in good hands. I write this as I sit in the beautiful Lucerna hotel in a king size bed with just a little pain, not much gas and am drinking liquids like a champ.

If someone I love or even just know casually asks me about my surgery there are in for an earful about how great Dr. Ponce and his team are.

Thank you Dr. Ponce and Trish for helping me change my life and being fantastic people who, when they are with you, you are there focus. I don't think I could have done this without Trish.

It's good to hear everything went well Dr. Ponce and you are able to get a lot of liquids in so early out. Hopefully more of Dr. Ponce patients will post there experience. More options the better.

Have speedy recovery, also can you tell me how much Dr Ponce de leon charges?

I am getting sleeved by him tomorrow. He runs about $5500. I hear he has promotionals sometimes.

Eylish, I may run into you!

Congrats on getting surgery! I have heard good things about Dr Ponce de Leon. I am happy to hear you feel pretty good overall. Best wishes!

Congratulations! I don't have experience with Dr. Ponce, but Trish is awesome!
