Paid cash in Mexico



Recommended Posts

My sister and I went to Mexico and had surgery together. She paid $4100, I paid $5100 ( different drs., different prices). That was for hotel, and total hospital stay, supplies and surgeon. Our flights for both less than $350. Excellent service!!! So many Americans and Canadians are doing it. Didn't have to go through the hoops like you do in U.S.

My surgery is scheduled for 1/11/17, so I haven't been yet, but through MUCH research I chose Dr. Fernando Garcia at Tijuana Bariatrics. He has done 8000+ sleeves, great reviews, and does the procedure in a hospital that is new, and has an accredited ICU just in case there is complications. $4490 includes transportation to and from airport, 3 nights at Tijuana Marriot (1 is night before surgery), 2 nights hospital, and a dietician we will always have access to. I have been super impressed with Lanelle, his patient coordinator. Answered a ton of questions, a sleeve patient herself losing 116, and made it easy to complete scheduling. Hope that helps!

I chose Dr. Cabrera at Mexico Bariatric Center. He was awesome, new Hosp, cost includes to and from airport Transportation, dietician, hotel 3 nights stay and 2 days post surgery shopping excursion. Yep you go shopping downtown Tiajuana, they will help you haggle prices too! Oh also cost includes post surgery Dr. Visit at hotel! Check out their website, they sometimes run monthly specials and buddy discounts. The nurses were awesome as well. While shopping 2 day post surgery I met 3 other Americans who were post op from other hospitals. This is common.

Do your research. Each doctor has different charge, mostly due to experience. If you choose Mexico Bariatric Center,you'll meet wonderful staff that have had surgery with pics to prove it.

Good luck and God bless.

Also their ARE webinars from dietician on you tube. Let me know if you choose this group. I would like you to say I refered you. I get bonus for this. Msg me if you do. ( not trying to be tacky)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
