Narrowing down doctors in Mexico



Recommended Posts

My husband is ready to go to Mexico for surgery. We are trying to finalize what doctor he is going to use. We have it narrowed down to 3- Dr. Kelly, Dr. Rodriguez and Dr. Aceves. They all have very good reputations. Dr. Kelly is the most affordable, but we are not looking for the cheapest.

Looks loike there are a few websites you can book Dr. Kelly through. Can anyone give me direct contact info. Also, it says you can stay in a recovery house after surgery for the last night. My husband would rather stay in the hotel or hospital.

Please send me any infor on these doctors.

Thanks,

Vicki

I worked directly with Dr Kellys assistant Trish.. call her at (619) 955-6771 and (619) 395-5347. Tell her Kim referred you to her - so she knows how you got her phone number.

Dr Kelly is amazing and changed my life!

I went to Dr Kelly also. I had such an easy surgery and recovery it still amazes me. No pain, no nausea, up and walking around almost immediately. Dr Kelly is very skilled and experienced. Trish is great. I keep in touch with them now too. My sister went with me and cannot believe how well i did. We may be going back later so she can be sleeved by Dr Kelly too. I had a wonderful experience!!

I'll be seeing Dr. Kelly on July 29. After I leave the hospital I'll be staying at the Lucerna Hotel, which is a $22 per night upgrade. I wouldn't want to stay in a house either, you never really know what that means.

You can search Dr. Aceves' name on this site and read lots of info. He is who I used and I could not be happier. Looks like you are doing your research for hubby and that is the smartest thing you can do. Read, read, read!

Good luck!smile.gif

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
