One week and one day after surgery and down 9 pounds 3 before surgery and 6 from surgery day. Started protein early feeling a little slow but am doing good so far.

I still can't believe my surgery is done. I get to the hospital almost 11am and they start working on me right away. My lab work, my height, my weight, chest ex ray. Then we take a minute to meet the Dr on the floor and get some medical history and tell me what to expect. Omar (the coordinator) was right when he said they have done so many surgeries. He was their to meet me when I got to the hospital and helped fill out the paperwork. I ended up upgrading to hospital Florence that is very nice. Well after I saw the cardiologist and got my EKG and some more medical history I meet Dr Illan (that is very young by the way) I didn't have that many questions for him but he was able to go over the process that will be taken. Next thing you know I get wheeled off to surgery and before you know it I am being wheeled back to my room with a mild soreness in my stomach. I know I have to walk and I have been doing the best I can but at first they would not let me walk until the anesthesia was completely worn off. So I am in my room resting and happy as can be to be on the losers bench.

No I did not have a drain but I did have gas. They made it bearable though.

Well wishes coming your way.

I just got back from surgery with Dr Illan and I can Highly recommend him and his team. The price was right and I GOT an excellent service better that any US surgeons.

I am back home now and enjoyed my hole experience. I stayed busy at the Hotel (which is beautiful by the way) I had to see the dentist and got plenty of shopping and they have some excellent broth across from the hotel. Omar will take you and I can't thank him and Dr Illan for making this hole experience so wonderful.

Today is 85% and getting better. Still can't believe I am doing so well. All of a sudden in the middle of the night and during one of my walks threw the halls I started feeling myself again. Thank you to everyone for your well wishes.

I also had to do one week but honestly I was getting some headaches from not eating like normal. i just had my surgery and I was starving when I got here but now I'm not even hungry. I can't believe only ice chips for two more days but they are going down fine.

Glad to hear you are well. God Bless You

I am also having surgery with Dr Illan the 20th of this month and will let everyone know how it turners out.

So I have made my decision to have surgery in Tijuana and came across Baja Bariatrics. I Have not heard any negative posts on them so far and would love to get some further info. Questions have been answered like experience and facility but would like first hand experience. Any info would be highly appreciated.

I spoke to Omar and got a quote for $5000 in December at (619)395-5347.

Thanks for the info. I have also been lurking for quite some time as was wondering the same thing.

Thanks
