Dr. Jalil Illan with Baja Bariatrics and Omar Acosta - A Warning



Recommended Posts

Since most of the people posting on this site are grown women .... I wonder if we were all in a room would you be "acting" in the same way. What I read in all these posts is the venom and hate coming across. True anger no matter what side. Once again I say - please shut this post down from further commentary. I think we have enough drama in here for folks to make a decision. All new posts have been just garbage and attacks. As grown women we should be pumping each other up not destroying each other.

This post will remain open until I request that it be closed. That will happen once appropriate resolution has taken place.

If we close it down now, it will disappear and that is what the Omar Worshippers want. And, we would be doing a disservice to potential patients of Dr. Illan if we do not warn them about Omar as long as he is still in the employment of Dr. Illan and Baja Bariatrics. In the meantime, you can unsubscribe and refrain from opening it if it disturbs you.

Isn't there a way to keep it viewable without allowing new venom to spew? That way people can still search on it?

I agree I want people who are new to read and make their own decisions. It's just that no new posts have been in a debate forum so to speak.

We still have victims considering posting their experiences. If they decide to face the bullying, they deserve the opportunity to do so.

There is a finding checked by the federal court judge in his order concerning Omar which states "the defendant has a significant prior criminal record."   These documents are public record.   In the US, we are lucky to have diligent employers who do background checks.

Is it "wrong" of "me" to "giggle" when I see "quotation mark" used "incorrectly"? Unless she "really" meant it "that" way. Hmmmm.... Brings an entirely "new" "twist to the "story".

I am not a newbie

I am not an Omar lover

I am not a Susan basher/supporter

And you can giggle all you like. You're proving my point

Goodness. Please show me where I said you were anything. I don't think I've addressed you at all. :D

Your "" actually made sense, so no, my dear, wasn't you. ;)

It was posted right after my quotation mark usage so just thought you were referring to me ;)

Nope.  Not even a little bit.  :D

Would you please PM me a link for this information?  I am collecting data to turn over to the proper authorities in Mexico and this would help a great deal.  I am not good at researching legal issues.

 

Thanks!

Chelsey. You need not do this. I can assure you, this is already being done. I have more information than what has been shared on here.

This is weird - the Baja Bariatrics website has this blurb under "our coordinator" :

 

"Omar is a certified, experienced Facilitator, based in EU. Omar has many experience as a health facilitator, he is dedicated to helping you safely travel for medical services, he will be happy to help and support you in your weight loss journey in Tijuana Mexico."

 

 

Isn't EU universally accepted as an abbreviation for European Union? And what is this certification? Perhaps it's all just poor English and auto-correct. Still weird though...

One thing I would like to add.  I do not hang out with criminals in the US or anywhere else.  I want to know who I am dealing with is not a gigolo or criminal.  A one night stand might be fun.  But know who you are sleeping with.  I can google and research anyone in the US, but Mexico, haha!.  All these women go to Mexico, have no idea they are hanging  with a felon/criminal/unknown but for sure has a criminal history but suave front man for the doctor who wines and dines them and keeps his employer happy with rave reviews.

Dr. Illan is apparently too busy from just coming back from vacation to talk about the Omar situation right now, but states he is very interested. I'm sorry, what is more important than the safety of your patients? I don't care how busy you are, this should be your top priority.

He is probably sweating at the thought of loss of income and is speechless.

If this were the US, I'd say he is lawyering up. Have no idea how it works in Mexico or with out of country clients.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
