I've read alot about Dr. Aceves and was just wondering if anyone had any information about him. I was looking at Mt. Zion and they gave a price and pick u up from the airport and had a place for family to stay and all. I was just wondering if anyone could tell me a price range and what it all includes. Thank you!

I am having surgery with Dr. Aceves on Jan 5th. I paid $8775 for my sleeve. This included my pre-op tests (EKG, Xrays and blood work), 1 night in hotel, 3 nights in hospital, surgery and transporation to and from the airport. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you! That answered alot! Does that also include a place for family members to stay or would they need to find their own motel or something?

If you search for 'Aceves' in the search bar on this website, you will get alot more information than you can even think to ask here.

I had a great experience, and during my research I could not find anything negative about him. Yes, you will find stories of negative experiences but when you really read thru them, they are that person's experience and not actually a negative act by the doctor himself. Like reactions to anesthesia or other meds, or pain issues etc. These things were not caused by Dr. Aceves and the person would have easily experienced the problems with any doctor.

I paid $8750, special price. I think regular is $9500. You stay in the hospital 4days/3nights and the doctors see you every day 2-3 times a day. Every room is private with a comfy couch, so if you bring someone they can stay there with you.

Do the search in the forum, the wealth of information is there.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
