hello! im having the gastric sleeve done in oct 2014 with DR Hidalgo in puerto vallarta... can anyone tell me anything about their experience with him???? experience having gastric sleeve in puerto vallarta?? thank you!

No I don't believe he did unless it was internal an they would've been self dissolving I only had at most 2 staples per wound. I had 5 incisions all very very small my surgery was laparoscopic

Oh the hospital was very clean. My floor only had a few rooms so I assumed it was very specialized an only did my type of surgery. They encourage u to walk an I used to walk around my floor. My room was large but not big enough for me to walk. I used to walk an talk to nurses at main desk. Very nice very professional

Everything went well!! A few of my night nurses didn't speak English but my day nurses all spoke English I had a little more pain then dr hidalgo expected in first 24 hrs so they kept me an extra day n hospital at no extra charge - instead of releasing me n morning they kept me till late that evening. My fault on that I forgot to mention I have very low pain tolerance for anything! Surgery went very well post op went very well an I've lost 60lbs dr also came to hotel to ck on me an remove staples before I went home. My hubby stayed with me in hospital room which was comforting
