So many Dr's in Mexico!…help!

[Ms.AntiBand 2,984]

My recommendation would be to check out dr. Ponce de leon. He operates out of the INT hospital in TJ Mexico.

I will be the first to admit, I am a bit partial to him & Trish. They took great care of me. There are many highly qualified surgeons in Mexico, & I don't regularly give recommendations, but with what you said you wanted, I believe Dr. ponce de leon best fits what you want. Granted, he is not the lowest priced surgeon in Mexico, but his rate is more than fair.

One thing you need to consider is your coordinator. Trish is the only one I know that is actually there when you arrive, helps you get settled in, makes sure you are well served while you are in Mexico, and even checks on you after you get home (I still hear from her after 11 months).

With Dr. Ponce de Leon, you can expect, a highly competent surgeon, 2nights in the INT Hospital, 1 night in the Lucerna hotel (2nd nights are available if requested), the nicest resort hotel in TJ. And don't forget, Trish, she makes this whole thing so much easier. Last I checked his rate was still $5500.

Yep, have to agree 100% on this. Trish can't be beat when it comes to cordinators. Dr Ponce n staff are excellent. Good luck!

When you narrow it down be sure to talk personally with several patients from the docs you're considering.

Also in the Self Pay/Mexico forum there are many of us who shared our very detailed experiences with our respective surgeons.

I felt overwhelmed with all the choices when I began my research as well. I wound up going with dr. Ponce de leon and have not regretted it. Considering it was surgery (yuck) it was a great experience. Trish was awesome like everyone says.

Loved Dr. Valenzuela and Dr. Cabrera! The staff was amazing!
