Dr. Manuel Garcia Garza in Monterrey



Recommended Posts

Has anyone had surgery with him before? I found him on the Bariatric Center of Excellence website, and he's one of 4 "surgeon of excellence" in Mexico. I was hoping to get some feedback.

Thanks!

Where does he do his Surgeries at? Altho it is best to find a Surgeon with The BARIATRIC CENTER OF EXCELLENCE, it doesn't always mean they are the best!! My hubby and I had the same surgeon, he did my RNY first and then tried to do a revision for my hubby which failed terribly. He ended up with abscesses and was sick for 9 months and 3 of them he doesn't remember. He was a great surgeon, but not so good with the follow-up. He kind of dropped my hubby in the middle of his illness and because I had problems with strictures he repeatedly referred to us both as "PROBLEM CHILDREN". If the Dr isn't doing the surgery at STARMED HOSPITAL in JUAREZ, Mexico he might be alright. Now the surgeon that did my hubby's Sleeve Surgery in JUAREZ MEXICO was an excellent surgeon. The Hospital NOT SO MUCH!!! They are nothing like the US hospitals. I wouldn't go thru BeLiteWeight either. The coordinator talked to us about other cases and couldn't keep things straight. Kind of scary. But now I will shut up because I don't know anything about your surgeon. i have heard that they do really great in Tijuana, MEXICO.

Hi, I had my gastric sleeve with him 3 months ago, and all i can say its that HE IS THE BEST DOCTOR, and the team he has its wonderful, you should do an appointment and verify what im saying.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
