Can anyone offer input on Dr. Jose Rodriguez &/or BeLiteWeight?
vsgblond replied to Okiebon's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery

amen. all i care about is how much weight these former patients lost...was their sleeve surgery successful??? did their incisions heal up the way they should? i'm not here for the other stuff. i don't care if omar broke their hearts, or if they stalk him. good grief. -

i am new here, but have been reading posts constantly for the last 2 months...to choose a surgeon. 1st choice, unfortunately passed away. i read some kind of ranting from the original poster about not going to him because she found a complication (years later?). i disregarded that information. now i am looking at dr. ilan. this is not helpful. this sounds like a bunch of high school girls fighting over who got dumped. i'm not looking for my coordinator to be my best friend. unless something inappropriate happened while under anesthesia, i don't think any of this is relevant to his medical practice. was necessary medicine withheld for sexual favors? did they refuse to take them to the border unless they had sex? who is thinking about hooking up in mexico after bariatric surgery????? i have spoken with omar, and frankly he sounds pretty balanced compared to a couple of other coordinators in this price point i am not looking to go to tijuana for a vacation, or to party like i am 18. i am looking for the most competent surgeon to do the job. i don't care so much about their romantic lives, as much as....how much weight have they lost? did they have any complications?
