I am just about 4 months postop from having surgery at BariatricPal with Dr Illan. It was a totally positive experience. I was so well looked after and had no complications. I am down 70lbs so far and would do this again in a heart beat. The hospital is new, well equipped and very clean. I would recommend Dr Illan 100%.

@Angie’s_Ocean. Thanks so much for the info! I will take the water and compression stockings advice serious 😊 I’m fortunate that my flight is direct and only 3.5 hours.

I agree with being concerned about only staying one night post op in the hotel and when I asked Bill about this he assured me it was long enough. I am flying 3.5 hrs from Canada so wanted to make sure I was good to travel. I am heading there a day before surgery (November 30th) and have booked a room through Bill at Pueblo Amigo hotel for approx $73 US a night. Bill just had his vsg surgery last week but is back to work now and has usually answered any of my emails quite promptly. There also is a ton of info on the fb group if you want to reconsider joining that.

I am booked for vsg surgery on November 30/17 with BariatricPal team MX. I did quite a bit of research and i am looking forward for Dr Illan to preform my surgery. I am flying down from Alberta Canada on November 29. Very excited!!
