Mexicali surgeons: Arellano or Aceves?

Hello -

I know that Dr. Arellano and Dr. Aceves were once a team. I see a lot of comments on Dr. Aceves but not Dr. Arellano.

Can anyone tell me if they looked into each of these surgeons, and why you chose one over the other for gastric sleeve?

They both practice in Mexicali.

Thank you. :)

I once look at them too but after a deep deep research I found Dr. Ramos Kelly and I did my gastric sleeve with him I am grateful I found him you should look for him too. I can give you the information of my contact if you are interested!! Good luck!!

I have friends who used Dr.Kelly with success.

I'm am very excited to go to Dr Aceves next Friday! I did a lot of research not only on number of surgeries, but on complications, after care and real results. Dr Aceves does a lot of sleeve revisions from doctors who don't quite do it right and peoples stomachs stretch a lot. I was he very encouraged by the number of people who not only got down to their moderate goal weight but even below it and had to learn how to stop losing weight because it was done so well. I'm very excited and feel totally comfortable. The fee is $8750 and includes a night in the hotel and 3 nights in the hospital and transportation to and from the San Diego airport.

I would love Dr. Ramos Kelly's info.  I have submitted the information request form on wlsclinic.com and sent an email to wlsclinic@outlook.co but no one has gotten back to me.

Came back from surgery. Was a great experience. Dr Aceves spent an hour talking with us the day before the surgery. He did 3 leak tests of different kinds which I really like, and sent me home with the barium x-rays of my new tummy! If you want a good sleeve, I highly recommend him.

Teetering between Ortiz or Ponce De Leon/Dr. Verboonen. Anyone had sleeve surgery with any of these 3 surgeons?, good outcomes?

I am in Orlando and I bet the flight will be a killer coming back!!  my band slipped last year. I had great results with Labband for 10 years but band slipped mid last year, and I started packing on the pounds rapidly. Had band taken out . now ready for sleeve... contemplating sleeve in Tijuana!

Best advice??
