Lorilee - I just returned from TJ in which Dr Ortiz performed my sleeve on 11/19. He is excellent! And so is his team! I think I may even have a crush! Lol...he has a great bedside manner (as well as his co-surgeon Dr Martinez). I had a great experience! No complications and I feel great!

It's going well! My stats...256 lbs prior to preop diet...date of surgery 240 lbs...as if today 233.8 lbs. I'm so pleased! By the way, I was 271 lbs in August 2012, so I've been on this journey for a few months...

I used Dr. Alberto Aceves in Mexicali and was thrilled with my experience. He is at the upper end of the spectrum on cost' date=' but I personally think it was worth it. He operates in a modern hospital and you stay 3 nights after surgery in that hospital. I have had pretty good follow-up also.[/quote']

I just finished reading the news abt the drug war in Mexico, how were things in mexacali? I'm using this same doc. I'm kinda freaked out now.

Personally speaking.. I went with Dr. Garcia in Tijuana and I felt very safe. Like others in this forum have posted... use your common sense while there. Even here in almost every town in the US there are "bad or shady" parts. So just use your best judgement while there. Not once did I feel unsafe at all. I was just there on Oct. 30th through 11/2.
