    My Mexicalli Experience!

    Both my best friend and I said it did feel like a vacation instead if a surgery!! I was so well taken care of!! Every detail attended to! I like that Dr Aceves has his own floor of the hospital so all the nurses know what they are doing! I like that they keep you in the hospital for three days and make sure every thing is as it should be... Then dc us on day 4 ! It was a wonderful experience!! dr Aceves is warm and kind... Dr Campos works with him and has had the VSG... So he is a fabulous resource !!
