I’ve heard through the grapevine that BP is doing plastics now.

How do I get more info. I’m just about ready to take the plunge!

Hello AmandaRaeLeo
We have partnered with Dr. Alejandro Galvez and are now offering plastic surgery at BariatricPal Hospital MX.
Dr. Galvez is has two surgical specialties in both plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgery as in general, digestive and endocrine surgery.
Please join our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/DrAlejandroGalvezandBariatricPalMX/

I have so many friends who've had plastic surgery after weight loss, they have a long recovery and several check ups. How is that handled if we go to Mexico?

I sent a request to join the FB group, however, answering the questions here in this thread would be great too. So to allow for transparency and consistency.

Ex. Are they board certified?

I follow several people on IG who had surgery from him **recently** and everyone of them have a wound that came open.. no others that have had surgery in the last few months on my followers list, with other surgeons, have had the same issue. Is that coincidence?

Hi Everyone ! Yes, I am board Certified, certification number 1882. And like Bill and Stacy already said, for any info you can write to plastics@bariatricpal.com or join my group, I try to be as useful as I can to help everyone make more informed decisions on Plastic surgery after weight loss . I liked that someone used the word transparency ! I'm all for it , you can talk to all or most of My patients also on the FB group, and you can even see some of the surgeries on my Instagram live when some patients allow us to show it.

I'm still about a year away, but was trying to get a feel for pricing for planning purposes.

What do I need to do to be accepted to the Facebook for? I've tried to join a few times over the past couple days come off but apparently I'm not being accepted to the group.

      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!!
