I used Dr. Alvarez for my surgeon...he is wonderful!

I wouldn't necessarily say a "bad choice" but continue to do your research. I haven't heard of him either. Where did you find out about this Dr? What made you decide to go with him? Also, did you have to make a deposit with him?

I had my surgery done by Dr Cabrera through Medical Tourism. My surgery went smoothly, the Dr & staff at Hospital Nova were very warm & friendly & I would easily recommend him for this procedure !According to MT he has done 2500 of these surgeries and I felt confident the whole time I was there. He came & introduced himself and answered my questions prior to surgery.

Thanks for the review Cinders. I am leaning toward Dr Alvarez, but still researching other doctors. Dr. Ismael Cabrera Garcia seems very appealing to me. He has done enough surgeries to really know what he's doing but is still young and new enough to not be complacent. It's funny because as I've been comparing a lot of the doctors, I'm trying to leave Price out of the mix but I keep thinking that there MUST be something wrong with him if his price is so low... but the more research I do the less this seems to be the case! I've been talking to Christy and she has been fabulous so far. I hope to have my decision made in the next week or so and book surgery for March.

Check ObesityHelp too. They have reviews of surgeons as well as a Mexico forum.
