Having my gastric sleeve done by Dr. Cabrera April 23rd, 2016 in Tijuana Mexico! I'm super excited & also very nervous. Anyone else going to be there around this time???

I'm setting up my gastric sleeve appointment somewhere between late April- early May 2016 through alighterme.

Hi. My surgery is scheduled withDr. Ponce d Leon on April 13. Feeling apprehensive

Hi ryannryann! How do you like the coordinators at alighterme? I booked through Mexicobariatriccenter and my main coordinator has been quite disappointing.

Hi Ckcslvur!

Congratulations! I hear dr. Ponce de leon is a very experienced surgeon! It's normal to feel apprehensive, I feel the same way, but if you've researched Dr. Ponce you'll know your in good hands! Are you taking a support person with you?

So far so good. As soon as I signed up I got an immediate phone call and email with all the needed information in detail.

I am not taking anyone with me. I am a single mom so need my mother to stay home with my daughter and I don't want to ask anyone to pay airfare and such. ...so going alone.

Totally understand. Even though you don't have a support person to come with you a good percentage of people who have gone through the same experience have left really great reviews of how helpful people were. I'll be pretty much alone as well since my husband will be staying with our children, but I think about how I'll be in good hands and how this is going to be better in the long run! Think happy thought! God bless!

Great! Would you please let me know how everything went? I've read good things about Dr. Cabrera but to actually talk to someone who just went through it would be nice! Good luck & God bless!

Yup! But are you also part of Mexico Bariatric support group on Facebook? There are tons of people on there who've already had the surgery and had Dr. Cabrera.

My sleeve surgery is March 24 with Dr. Rodriquez in Tijuana. This will be my second surgery with Dr. R and coordinators from "Beliteweight". I trust Dr. R and have had no issues with them. Excited and nervous! The sleeve is a big deal.

I will be having surgery on 4/22. I chose A Lighter Me. My doctor will be Dr. Ortiz.

Hey April peeps....I got this idea from one of the vlogs I follow, but I'm wondering if you would be interested in doing an April facebook support group. Since we're doing our surgery around the same time, we'll be experiencing similar things and we can check in with each other about the different stages. What do you think?

Having Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Tijuana with Dr. Lopez-Corvala @ Hospital Angeles March 15th. Anyone else?

Hi! First-time poster here. I have an appointment with the bank tomorrow. If my loan gets approved, I'm getting a VSG with Dr. Ariel Ortiz, from the Obesity Control Center. Spoke with him on the phone yesterday, seems like a great guy; his credentials are very impressive too.

I really hope I get approved. I'm terrified!
