Has anyone here used ALO Bariatrics with Dr. Alejandro Lopez in Tijuana? I'm scheduled for August 5th

I haven't been able to find a lot of reviews about them

Just wanted to check in with you. I had surgery in TJ on 6/23/16 so I'm heading into my 3rd week post-op. I can't say enough about how well we were treated (there were 5 of us) throughout our stay. From the driver to Sandra the patient coordinator on that side to all the staff including Dr. Lopez. Even the staff at the Marriott were wonderful. Day after surgery, my roommate and I walked from the recovery boutique (2nd floor of the hospital) to the Wal-mart which is about a block and half from there. Only pain I personally felt was from the dang drain. Once that was pulled on Saturday the 25th, I felt instant relief. Sandra took us shopping on Saturday at Revolution St. which was fun.

There is a book in the recovery boutique...don't forget to sign it! We did. :(

If you haven't already joined his FB support page do so. He and Sandra are very active especially when we have questions and tag them:

Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm very excited that my surgery is only 4 weeks away

I had the sleeve with him on 6/23/16, you're in excellent hands. You can search for bariatric surgeries on FB. Those of us who've had surgery with him post there too. He and Sandra are active on the page, you just have to tag them if you have a question directly for them.

Good luck! :)

Did you have to pre-pay the whole surgery before it was scheduled or do they finance you or do they give you financing options? I'm waiting on a call back from them for a consult.
