I agree with OTR. I too narrowed it down, and came to the same selections of surgeons. I went with DrAceves because I did want my hand held. :D I travelled alone and really wanted to feel that I was safe and secure. Not to say that the others aren't safe, I just felt Dr Aceves was the best for me. Also, sine I live in Vegas, Dr Aceves was a one-hour flight compared to Dr Alvarez, who is closer to the Texas border.

I chose Aceves and had a wonderful experience. I'd recommend him, his hospital, and his staff to anyone who is considering surgery in MX but is nervous. You'll feel safe & as comfortable as you can be.

I used Dr. Alvarez in Piedras Negras. He is located just across the border from Eagle Pass, TX. He is a really great surgeon. Endobariatrics.com is where you find his info. He is in a hospital, does only 3 surgeries max each day and has a really good staff.

I'm with Dr Rodriguez in Mexico 11/23. He's 6800. Beliteweight.com arranges it. I chose him because he's done over 10,000 surgeries and quite well know in the field. I spoke with recent patient , who is also a nurse.

I'm excited. He is more than otters but you cannot put a price on this.

Dr. Jaime Ponce de Leon, in Tijuana, Mexico!

His Patient Coordinator is Trish. She and he are the super team :-). Dr. Ponce is renowned in Mexico, and taught a lot of the other doctors mentioned. Trish was the main factor to build the trust. You won't regret this choice.

Dr. Ponce is $5500. ($500 more for very high BMI or Lapland revision.)

I'm Day 4 Post OP, feel great! I posted more detail at www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/57620-looking-to-do-the-sleeve-in-Mexico/page__gopid__550636#entry550636

I had surgery in Tijuana Mexico and my doctor was Dr. Fernando Garcia. I paid $4700. It was cheap, he was good, the place was clean. If that's all that matters than this is the place.

However: I was sent home with NO pain meds which would have saved me from the following four days of absolute torture. By the time I found out I should have been prescribed pain meds I was already over it.

I was also sent home with NO Vitamins or even SUGGESTIONS of which ones I should or shouldn't buy.

Maybe asking your Mexican doctor if he/she provides these VERY NEEDFUL things will prevent you going thru what I had to go thru.

Dr Almanza in TJ Mexico on May 15, down 98lbs since surgery. 102 since preop.

My surgery was 4500 and I also had my gall ladder removed as a precaution (which I suggest to EVERY one having wls) and it was only 800 more.

I will be back at Jerusalem Clinic for my mommy makeover as soon as I lose the last 30 lbs!

I had my sleeve done on Oct. 30th with Dr. Garcia in Tijuana, MX. alma, Rosie and Melissa (the care coorindators) were amazing and so friendly and compassionate! I paid $4700 for everything. 2 nights in hospital and 3 nights in the Lovely Mariott Hotel. Samuel who was our driver that picked us up in San Diego was hilarious and so friendly!

I would highly reccomend Dr. Garcia... he definitely knows what he is doing!

Dr Garcia is amazing. I had my surgery done yesterday (nov 5th) and he saw me and my best friend walking in the hallway and hugged us. What an amazing surgeon and he has a wonderful bedside manner. Very pleased and impressed

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
