Experiences with other surgeon/hospitals in Mexico

I know BP sends a lot of patients to TJ, and I hear the doctors there are great. But has anyone had any experiences with some of the doctors in other citys in Mexico? I'm leaning more and more to the self-pay route and going way down Mexico way. I live in south Texas, and as it is, I'm only several hours from the border. It seems silly for me to travel all the way to San Diego just to go across the border there. I'd like to keep my travel expenses to a minimum. Has anyone been to any surgeons in Monterrey or along the Rio Grande Valley? I would also consider cancun. I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

I'm sorry I can't help you with your question, as I only researched TJ docs, but I just wanted to congratulate you on getting one step closer to your surgery by beginning your research. I am glad you are open to surgery in Mexico, because it genuinely is a great self-pay option and there are many excellent surgeons. Hopefully someone can help you with the specifics of your question.

I had my surgery in Egypt! My sister lives there now and i was visiting her on a vacation gor 2 weeks. so I thought why not. I am very happy with my doctor and hospital. Zero complications and minimum pain.

I'm having my surgery in Juarez, Mexico March 26th

Best wishes to you on your surgery.

Hi Dimka I'm also considering Egypt for my Bariatric surgery. Who was your doctor and what hospital?

How was your experience please kindly share. Thanks.
