My reply was for Alex not you, but I personally don't care what you want to believe. Dr. A is a fantastic doctor and I'm glad I have him. Good day Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App

Thank you very much for your input. I'm very conflicted with all this because I have read/watched so many reviews of Dr A that talk about how attentive he was, how his staff was always checking on them making sure they got what they needed etc. I don't know, I'm just having a hard time seeing just ONE bad case and so many good ones. If I could see other "horror" stories maybe that would make it easier for me to decide. Price is def not an issue, I am ok with paying more if it means better care. Well thanks again for your reply I do appreciate it! There wasn't just one incident. He's left surgical sponges and needles inside patients. He's also lost operating privelages in most of the hospitals in Tijuana. It's your life we are talking about. Don't take a chance and regret it later.I've watched his surgeries live. Where do y'all get your sources? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App

Honestly Alex I can't believe you would sit there and write such a comment. I was with BP when all this went down with Dr. A. No there hasn't been many complications, horror stories, nor fatalities by the hand of Dr. A. Dr. A has a huge amount of followers and patients. He is one of the best Dr.'s in the world. Keep spewing your hate and you will continue to loose support. And to be honest heart attacks happen. You go into surgery knowing that anything can happen and this didn't even happen during surgery it happened after surgery! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using the BariatricPal App

I've been putting this question off for the longest, but here goes... Last year I took a flight out of state... I was having a hard time fastening my seat belt... It took me a long time and I was trying hard to make sure no one noticed... My question is what did you do for your travel to and from TJ Mexico? That was the first time that has happened to me and now I'm afraid of that happening again

Ah Thank the both of you. I can fit in a seat fine.

No lol I didn't know such a thing exist. I thought I would have to buy another seat. Southwest have them?

Yes thank you! I'm using Bariatricpal. Dr. A is awesome. I've been researching for a long time and the quality of care is the same as that of the US. Thanks again

I've heard good things about their bariatrics. I live near but doing self pay in Mexico. If I had the money I'd do it at Centennial

Hey! I'm 26 soon to be 27. I'm around 344 and plan on getting sleeved this summer. My mom is semi supportive and I have a couple of out of state friends that are supportive. My boyfriend on the other hand isn't really. But I plan to get my surgery in Mexico... I didn't meet my insurance requirements to have surgery here.

I'm 26(27 in February) I have two kids as well. Thinking I'm getting sleeved sometime this summer

I've told my mom and my closest friends that live miles away. They seem supportive. But I'm not telling anyone else. I'm creeping up on my 10 year reunion. I wanna walk in like wahhhhh
