Dr Rodolfo Wilhelmy in Mexicali, Mexico

I want to share my experience with Dr. Wilhelmy in Mexico, Mexico. I had my sleeve surgery almost a month and a half ago and since have gotten a number of people contacting me with questions and my surgery experience which I am happy to share!

I have to say that I had already been to Almater Hospital in Mexicali last year when my mom had her sleeve done. I was her companion and we were pretty nervous that time but her surgeon came highly recommended so we went. Everything that time was really exceptional, we were met at the airport in San Diego by Ernesto the driver and we were taken to the hospital to meet with the doctors and haver her tests done. I was immediately impressed with the hospital and with the staff taking care of us. We met the surgeon and other doctors the morning of surgery. The hospital is spotless and house keeping cleans all day long. The doctors visited her 2-3 times a day and she was checked on, had tests daily and really kept her moving to help her recovery along. A really wonderful experience.

My mom had already lost close to 100 lbs when I decided I wanted to have surgery too. I had my surgery August of this year and Dr. Wilhemly was my surgeon.

I am very very pleased with the entire experience once again, the level of care is outstanding. I already knew all the staff but was the first time meeting my surgeon. He is a very nice and caring man, his bed side manner is wonderful. He also visited me daily, all post op tests were done by Dr. Campos just like when my mom was there earlier and I got to meet Dr. Beltran who I had not met on the first trip there. I can recommend Dr. wilhelmy and the entire staff at Mexicali Bariatric Center without hesitation.

I am 40 lbs less since my pre op diet and 34.5 since my surgery. I have not had any problems and am very happy to have had my sleeve done. I have already recommended Dr Wilhelmy to several friends and they are looking into it. I rate this surgeon and hospital with 5 stars !
