I’m looking for any feedback on ALO Dr.Alejandro Lopez and the DS. The only thing I can find is the good. And some people think he’s good looking is there anything bad that I need to know about?

DS with Dr. Alejandro Lopez in Mexico. I have seen many positive comments about him in regards to VSG but have had a hard time finding patient references for DS.

I believe he does the RNY and the single anastomosis DS. If you're looking for a full DS, Dr. Esquerra is probably your best bet.

I wish I could afford Dr. Esquerra I am Canadian so with exchange roughly 14k. Which is just out of range for me I may have to settle for VSG.

Maybe you could go with the single anastomosis with Dr. Lopez? You'd get some malabsorption with that.

I had my surgery on 12/8/18 with Dr. Lopez I flew into San Diego in the morning, picked up at the airport and drive across the border. I had surgery that same afternoon. He did the Sleeve, DS, hernia repair and gallbladder removal. His surgical staff was friendly and made me very comfortable. I stayed in recovery for one night then moved to a different floor for another night. Then to the hotel for three nights. I’m so glad that I went with Dr Lopez. I’ve lost 30lbs in two months. I had zero complications. I was very sore post op in my abdomen and felt like it took forever to heal from the hernia repair and took 8 weeks off from work. Airfare, surgery, spending money and passports for two people was less than $9000.
