Hello everyone, If you have had the gastric sleeve plication in Mexico can you tell me who your doctor was and what the experience was like for you? I am having a very hard time choosing. Thanks.

There is a total gastric plication board on this site, check it out. I am writing from my hospital bed in Mexicali where Dr. Abril and his team just performed the plication surgery on me. I have only need the equivilant to Motrin for my pain. I was a HUGE worry wort and they call me the FBI patient because I dug and dug and never stopped asked questions about EVERYTHING. I highly recommend using Dr. Abril and his team. They are young, in their mid thirties, they are fresh and on the cutting edge of this surgery. He uses a man named Omar as a patient coordinator, if you contact him you will immidiatly know what being treated right feels like. I am so happy I got this done and I am not suffering any major pain or discomfort. This is day 2 after surgery and I want to go out shopping!! I jokingly accused my doctor of faking the surgery, because I feel no pain and so little discomfort. Come to Mexicali, you will be so pleased.

Hi,

I did my sleeve in Tijuana with Dr. Ariel Ortiz at Obesity Control Center. I had a gastric band and converted to a sleeve March of 2009. I am very happy with my sleeve and the facility is awesome it beats any hospital in the US. The staff is incredible and the doctors I just cant explain what they have done for me. They have completely changed my life, I also went back in Nov. 2010 to get my plastic surgery done.

TJ border was completely safe. Anything can happen anywhere. I seen nothing out of the ordinary and I felt very safe. That's saying alot coming from a scardy cat like myself.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
