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

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
