I have to self pay for my gastric surgery and I have been researching alternative doctors and would like to know if anyone will recommend any doctors in Mexico. I am tired of this life and want my life back.

I am going to dr Elias Ortiz from alighterme.com on November 7th. My good friend used him and had a great experience. So far it's been an easy process!

I reallly recommend Dr. Aceves. He is more expensive but I felt safer staying 3 days in a hosptial and having 3 leak tests.

I made my decision, contacted them, we faxed paperwork back and forth for 1-2 business days, then I told them the date I wanted to have surgery. I made my deposit, the date I wanted was confirmed, I booked my flight and it was a final deal! It took less than 5 days total to arrange EVERYTHING.

Dr. Illan at mysurgeryoptions.com. I had a wonderful experience. I would recommend him to anyone.

I has sleeve done Sept 13 with Dr Quinones! I absolutely would recommend him to anyone. I paid 4,500 and it basically included everything besides Meds $80 and my airfare. I was treated like a queen.

Dr Fernando Garcia is an amazingly skilled surgeon and the best. He performed my revision and he was a superstar. Great price, 3 leak tests excellent aftercare.

I used Dr Corvala in Tijuana.< /p>

No problems, excellent care. Flew into San Diego, they picked me up and brought me right to hospital. No hotel stay, all the nights were in the hospital.

Paid 6000.00

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
