Pompeii Surgical (Dr Quinones)

Has anyone previously used Dr Q at Pompeii Surgical? I was approved for the surgery and their In-House financing program and it seems like my only option due to low credit history and No gastric coverage on my insurance. But I'd like to find some reviews that's aren't on their website first.

I was sleaved by Dr. Q on 1/18/17 along with my friend that had a band to sleave revision. Everyone was really nice. Dr. Q is great. I would do it again. Good luck in your journey.

That's awesome to hear! I was approved for the surgery yesterday and just got the contract for the financing. Medical Tourism Scares me but not as much as dying from being so overweight.

I went to Dr Quinones at Pompeii Surgical. He did a great job and the staff was great. The surgery Center was kinda small though. The rooms are not very private and you can hear evervything going on. No private bathroom in the rooms which was the biggest surprise for me. If youb want the place to look like a surgical center in US then this isn't the place for you. It's was very clean though and I can't say enough about the great staff.

MaconMommy, did you end up having the surgery with Dr. Quinones in Tijuana? I'm scheduling mine now. To those of you responded, thank you! How are you currently doing?

I am now 6 months Post-surgery and I am doing great. I have never regretted it once. I am currently down 80 lbs. better than I thought I would do. Never a complication with Dr Q

That's so great! Thank you for responding. I'm doing pre-op diet now. It's rough. 11 days till surgery. Excitement has now joined the nervousness!
