Baja Bariatrics is the only way to go in Tijuana

I just wanted to share the wonderful experience I had going through bajabariatrics.com for my vertical sleeve 2 weeks ago - Dr. Jalil Illan is top notch and the care and treatment I received, both before and after surgery, was more than I expected.

I truly feel a greater connection to Dr. Illan and his team then I do with my PCP here in the States - and I love my doctor here - but the care and time was incomparable - the hospital was clean and private (with a great view), the doctor was thorough, knowledgable and friendly (much more approachable than many doctors I have seen in the US), and his coordinator, Omar, is someone I now truly consider a friend - he was with me every step of the way and was much needed support and source of comfort!

I work in a hospital in the US and STRONGLY recommend that if you are traveling south for your procedure---choose no one but Dr. Illan and Baja Bariatrics - there is no one better and you will not be disappointed....

Please feel free to message me or ask anything I may have left out that you are interested in :) by the way, I am 15 pounds closer to a healthier me and couldn't feel better!

I'm thrilled that you had such a wonderful experience. There are MANY competent and caring doctors, top notch coordinators, and clean facilities in Mexico but we don't hear a lot about Dr. Illan or Baja Bariatrics so thanks for the review.

Thank you for sharing your experience with Dr. Illan, he is definitely a top notch doctor, and the one MSO has chosen to work with as well.

Quite the, ummm.. Poster patient!

So are you saying baja bariatrics and dr. Illan is not reputable?

No, not at all. I'm saying to rely solely on what a member posts in their one and only post should most likely be taken lightly. If you do your research properly you will fine the best surgeon for yourself.

I've had surgery with dr. Illan in july 2013. I had a wonderful experience and have many posts on here. You can alps message me if you have more questions.
