my experience with Dr ponce de leon was fantastic. I was there almost 3 weeks ago. I was at the INT hospital which has fantastic staff and is very clean. Dr Ponce himself is fantastic, he doesn't speak english very well so he always has an interpreter with him. He was there before and several times after surgery to check on me and to make sure that everything was ok. I stayed at the Lucerna Hotel and it was really nice as well. The hotel staff is aware of your needs after surgery and you get broth and popsicles at no charge. Feel free to ask any questions.

Hi there! I had my surgery with Dr Ponce on May 10th, and everything went wonderful! Even though like it was mentioned, he doesn't speak much English, he was still very kind and patient. I was a bundle of nerves on the morning I had my surgery, and both he and Trish reassured me that everything was going to be fine. They were absolutely right on :) Some of the nurses don't speak a whole lot of English either, but they understand when you are in pain or feeling nauseated, and are very quick to respond to anything that you may need. I'd reccommend him to anyone! :D

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Ponce and his staff. I did a lot of research before choosing him and I am glad I did! I have my journey including surgery on YouTube if you want to watch it, it might help you seeing him in action. My coordinator was Trish and she was wonderful also. If you go with him you won't regret it, people I talked to there said he is the best in Tijuana!

      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! 😞
