Many of you on here know me well, I have been a part of these message boards for years. I love our members and I want only the best for them. Therefore, I can not in good conscience keep this to myself any longer.

Dr. Illan is a wonderful surgeon. In fact, when I used to coordinate, for a while I actually referred patients to him. His coordinator, Omar, has a very, very faithful following. So much so, I fully expect and am prepared for the "verbal beating" I am going to get for going public with what I know. But, if I prevent just one woman from experiencing what I am about to share with you, then it will all be worth it.

As I said, Omar is very well loved among the patients, especially the ladies. He goes out of his way to ensure everyone has a great experience while there. He provides for the patient's every need, transports them around town, runs errands for them, sits by their bedside and so much more. He is very charming and charismatic. There will be many, many members who will respond to this thread stating just that. In fact, when the first patient, one that I had referred to them, approached me about what happened to her, I did her a horrible disservice by not really believing what she told me, because Omar did such a good job of convincing me otherwise. But now, after six woman, some of whom I referred to Dr. Illan, some not, have contacted me regarding what happened to them, I know now that first patient was telling me the truth, she did not misinterpret anything and I must speak out.

So, what is it that I am speaking off? I am talking about taking advantage of woman who have traveled to a foreign country by themselves, most likely have low self-esteem due to their weight issues, they are scared and they are lonely. Then, along comes Omar. He is by their side throughout their stay. He is, as I said before, charming and charismatic. They very quickly find themselves falling victim to him, and he takes advantage of them in several different ways. He either is sexually suggestive to them, sexually inappropriate, or convinces these woman he truly cares for/loves them and begins a romantic relationship with them. Because of how vulnerable they are, they believe he really does care about them, and they allow themselves to be wooed by him and have a romantic and/or sexual relationship with him. Then, shortly after, he basically dumps them. He quits responding to their calls, texts, etc. He leaves these woman feeling broken and foolish for falling for him. They feel like they have done something wrong, when in fact, they are merely the victim of a heartless man taking extreme advantage of his position and their vulnerability. Understand, I am not saying this happens with every patient, but it does happen and it shows an extreme lack of professionalism and moral character.

I have attempted to contact Dr. Illan to speak with him personally about this. Unfortunately, Omar makes that nearly impossible. All calls, emails, etc. are intercepted by him. And, here is the saddest part of all, Dr. Illan already knows what is going on. So, I am doubtful my talking to him would make a difference. Dr. Illan knows Omar has a strong fan base, and therefore, brings him a great deal of business. So, he turns a blind eye to what is happening. Which, is why I have no guilt in publicly coming out and sharing what I know. I will be honest, my goal here is to have Omar removed from his position as coordinator with Baja Bariatrics and Dr. Illan, and to see that he does not work in this field or any other field where he can take advantage of woman again. And, if Dr. Illan goes down as a result, well, shame on him for allowing it to happen in the first place.

I don't know who you're mumbling to madame - but I just asked a questions since you seemed to be in the business of sleuthing.

 

I see no gang related tattoos that Mxtransformed mentioned previously or photos of a wife that you seem to have had a vision of.

You can try as much as you like, love. You're gonna have to get up bloody early in the morning to have a crack at me. Be warned.

I'm off to bed now. Which, on balance, is infinitely better than entertaining a breathtakingly dull 'debate' (which would not, actually, be a debate), with you.

Have fun trying to pick an argument with yourself, you sad, sad, lady... if you're a lady

TTFN x

I assume this wasn't directed at me but if it was, I'm not attempting debate. I just want to see what you are seeing on the FB page.

As above, Heather. Not to you... What was for you, was addressed to you...

I'll address questions that are relevant to me. Questions in relation to Mxtransformed? You'll have to address to her.

We cross-posted. 

Funny when you ask a question on this particular thread, you are all the sudden part of Omar's posse. You're a newbie, so you must be someone other than who you are. Transparent, on a mission, perhaps not even a "lady". If you want to suggest something about someone then at least provide a link or help someone find the info you are alluding to. I'm asking questions on my quest to find a surgeon and their coordinator is a big part of it. This ridiculous behaviour is sad! Madam R you are a piece of work! <eyeroll>

And all of a sudden you newbies appear and seem to know more than I know in many many months here?  I just worry about a predator with God know what STDs who preys on vulnerable women who go to MX to save a few bucks.  The ranters for Omar are either related to him, involved with him, or have something to gain.

Linda we joined the same month - not that it makes a bit of difference.

 

I think everyone has been sufficiently warned, I just want clarification on whether or not he has gang tattoos and a wife.  So I can keep the story straight.

What the hell does it matter if he has a tattoo or a wife?  Good grief.

 

Madame Reverie is on target here like no one else.  Newbies are obvious plants.

Well for ME, I have been on these boards for months. I'm no plant.. I just recently signed up to post because I wanted to find out more about this thread as Dr. Illan is one of my choices. I asked Madam R about a comment she made about Omar having a wife. I looked on his fb page and read all the comments and didn't see anything. So, I asked and then somehow I'm on a mission with someone else on this thread. I mean seriously?? Then followed by some silly rant.....not that it really matters, but I just want a clear picture of this person. If Madam R is soooo sure she's read that on his page then why not share it...why be so bitchy about it...SHE is the one who brought out this revelation...

Now you're on to something - it just added to the sensationalism.

Where there is this much smoke there is a forest fire.  Relax and wait.  Make sure you are safe.  Make sure you make the right decision.  Read and be informed.  

Pots meet kettles X 10

How old are you right now? Reminds me of my 7 year olds.... Pots meet kettles x infinity + 1 = you all are insane. That's my math and I'm sticking to it!

Susan, can you take this to a private forum for discussion?  I am nauseated by stupidity.  The same thing can be accomplished by weeding out the Jim Jones Koolaid mentality/Omar love groupies.

I have been reading this thread from the beginning .. I'm not new , I didn't have surgery in Mexico.. All this fighting is crazy... All that matters is that people know to be careful of Omar's advances and not to fall into a relationship with him either .. I don't believe Susan or anyone ever said "dont go to dr illan" ?? If you want to go then go. He seems like a good surgeon.. Just go with the knowledge of Omar's antics. Simple as that .. That's what this post is for .. A warning about Omar. Yes if Dr Illan knows this information it's kind of sad on his part , but that doesn't affect his operating skills!!!
