A+ for Dr. Alberto Aceves and his staff in Calexico, Mexico. I had my surgery with Dr. Aceves on August the 30th and everything was wonderful. When I arrived the patient coordinator Yolonda had all of my pre-op test lined up and ready. Then after all of my test were complete I met with Dr. Aceves and he explained everything about the surgery the before and after and answered any question I had. Then from there it was to the "Lucerna" the hotel where I stayed the night before the surgery. The hotel was very nice and had 3 restaurants there I had my "last supper", so to speak. Later on Dr. Campos came in and showed the band and went into detail about the band and the surgery. The next day I went for surgery, I was the first patient that day. I went in about 10:00am and I was up and walking around a little after 12:00pm. I don't remember anything from the surgery and Dr. Aceves also fixed a Hiatal Hernia that I didn't even know I had. The nursing staff was so helpful and right on time with my meds 24/7. Everyone was so nice and the hospital was clean and well maintained. Dr. Campos also recommended a Dentist for me on Sunday, Dr. Roberto and Dr.Laura. They too did a wonderful job on my teeth for a inexpensive price. I was so pleased by everything and if you have any doubts about Dr. Aceves I'm here to tell you, you don't have to worry about a thing. One more thing I went by myself to Mexico and everything was well....I cant say enough about how good the care was, the surgery and the Denistry.....A++.

He is a great doctor! I have heard nothing but good things about his hospital too. My friend got the sleeve on Friday the 5th and she said all the same things you did. I may have him remove my band some day and get the sleeve.

Yes he is the best. Just curious why are you getting the band removed.

I am not at this point having my band removed. If I were to have trouble, I would get a sleeve. There are a lot of people having trouble with reflux

or all of a sudden, they have no restriction and can't find restriction again. These are signs of problems with the band. Thank goodness, I don't have these problems.
