I was pretty much set on dr Garcia, but now after reading more on Dr Illan I am questioning going with him? Please anyone that has had either of these Drs, let me know!

Hi vicki, it's a pleasure to say hi. I will be more than happy to schedule a phone, Skype or facetime consultation to answer all your questions.

Hello Dr. Illan! Ok, that would be great! I am in contact with Henry now, and can set something up with him I am guessing? Also, I watched the video on you tube of you performing the sleeve surgery, was great to watch and learn!

Hi Vicki, Dr. Illan did my mini gastric surgery and has provide support since surgery. He is so nice and caring you could not find a finer surgeon. He will answer any questions or concerns

you have and follow up when he needs. I would not trust my surgery to anyone except Dr. Illan.

Hi Vicki, I had mini gastric bypass with Dr. Illan. Before my surgery, he came in and let me know that I am family and he and the surgical staff will take care of me. He has answered any and all questions I have had and I know he will continue to check up on me. He is definitely the best choice I could have made. He definitely cares and he does a fantastic job. I have seen the video of my surgery. He operates with great attention to detail. I couldn't be happier with my surgery or my recovery.

I just returned from having my VSG with Dr. Illan. He Is AMAZING! I have tiny little incisions and I have had no pain.

You can't go wrong by choosing the BariatricPal MX Team to coordinate for you. They took such great care of us.

I am going to Dr. Illan because I have 3 co-workers who have had surgery via Dr. Illan and had wonderful things to say about him. The 7th can't get here fast enough!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
