    There are some really good surgeons and hospitals in Tijuana, Mexico. It's a real shame that a few bad apples are ruining it for all.

    According to the CDC, the surgeons, companies, and hospitals that are all linked to this superbug are:

    • Grandview Hospital (owned by Dr. Mario Almanza)
    • Dr. Mario Almanza
    • Weight Loss Agents
    • Obesity Goodbye Center
