Dr. Sergio Quinones vs Dr. Alejandro Lopez
happyhabit replied to verticallatitude's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I saw Dr Q back in May 2013. I have lost 100 pounds and still losing inches. I went alone so I was really scared but as soon as I met Dr Q and his staff I was completely at ease. They were so warm and caring. Before I chose him I had taken a list of 4 surgeons to my regular Dr and asked her to do some research and she told me that Dr Q was the best from my list and that he was highly educated in gastric surgeries. I highly recommend him. If you have any questions please feel free to PM me Michelle -

Surgeons in the 4,500 dollar range?
happyhabit replied to Travelmego's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I saw Dr Q in May of 2013. Best decision I ever made! Had one of my local Doctors do research on a few surgeons and she told me, from my list, that he was the best and had also taught the surgery to other Surgeons in Mexico. If you have any questions I am happy to answer them! -

I had one of my regular Doctors do some research on 4 Doctors in Mexico and she came back and said that Dr Q had the best success rate and was highly recommended in the medical field. Im happy to answer any questions. Michelle -

I had surgery with Dr Q last May. I have lost 108 pound and thrilled with the surgery he did on me. His staff was amazing as well. Before I picked him I have a list of doctors to my regular doc and she said that he had the best reputation for doing quality work. If you have any questions I am happy to answer them! Michelle -

happyhabit replied to Kindle's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Im definately not a Doctor, I am a single Mom with a disabled child and I work as a teacher. Like many others I was scared to have surgery cuz of the "what if's" as a single Mom to a severely disabled daughter. This is why I did so much research and why I highly recommend the Doctor I went to (Dr Quinones) -
Looking For The Right Surgeon!
happyhabit replied to BubblyBritt's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I had surgery in Mexico with Dr Quinones almost a year ago. I have lost 108 pounds and love my sleeve. I had a list of Doctos I took to my regular Doctor (my insurnace doesn't cover the sleeve) and she did research for me and said from my list Dr Quinones had the best reputation and she was truly excited for me. I loved Dr Q, he is funny, great to talk with and doesn't treat you like a number. I had a perfect surgery with no complications, his staff was wonderful and helpful. The hospital was super clean. I highly recommend Dr Quinones. If you have questions feel free to PM me but here is his site as well... http://santafemedicalgroup.com/page/santa-fe-medical-center Michelle -

happyhabit replied to Kindle's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I had surgery in Mexico with Dr Quinones. Best decision I have EVER made! He has his own private hospital and recovery house. If you take someone with you they are included in the price (except for food). Staff was soooo helpful. I had one of my doctors here do research on a list of Doctors I had considered and even she recommended Dr Quinones from his reputation (My local insurance wouldn't cover my sleeve). It has been almost a year and I am down 108 pounds! I had zero problems and love my sleeve life. http://santafemedicalgroup.com/page/santa-fe-medical-center If you have questions feel free to message me! Michelle -
I had surgery with DR Quinones last May. He is an amazing surgeon! If I had to do it again I would definately pick him. One of my regular Doctors even looked into him before my surgery and told me he was the way to go. (My insurance wouldn't cover the surgery but my Dr was all for me doing it). I paid $4500 for the surgery, I am down 108 pounds and loving my sleeve

best options for mexico
happyhabit replied to mgolden1984's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I saw Dr Quinones. I didn't have a revision but I know he does them. I was thrilled with my sleeve and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking surgery. I did a lot of research and even had my local Doctor look at the Doctors down there (My insurance wouldn't cover the sleeve) she told me that the Quinones was the best that she could find down in Tijuana and was thrilled when I signed up with him. My surgery was last May, best decision I've made! -
Well known vs. unknown Dr.'s in Mexico
happyhabit replied to Speeder's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I went to Dr Quinones last May. I had thought about one that I saw advertised all over the place until I saw how many surgeries he did in a day and I felt like I would be on a production line and felt that if I was last in line and he was tired from so many surgeries that I would end up at a high risk of not having a proper surgery. I think word of mouth from previous patients speaks louder than advertisements. Best of luck! -
