There is an entire section on VSG in Mexico as well as do a search "Dr. Aceves" and you can read many people's experiences.

I Luv dr Aceves, I had surgery June 30, 2012 with him and I'm at my goal now, it was a great experience, great drs, great hospital & great nurses and I would recommend him to everyone. I'm in Northern California and after surgery he gave me all my X-ray OR reports to bring home for my PCP it was great.

I had my sleeve done by Aceves on 12/20/12 (down 50lbs!) and it was an amazing experience. PM if you want more info!

I had my sleeve done by Dr Aceves. I am 8 weeks post op today and down 63.5 pounds. The experience was fabulous and I would do it again with him as my surgeon if I had to. The hospital was clean, communication was easy and the care was very attentive. Pm me if you want any advice or info. I'm actually going back to him end of April to accompany my aunt for her sleeve. She came with me in January when I got mine and she liked the whole process so much she booked her own! Good luck with making your decision

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
