Don't be silly, Dr. Acheves is one of the top bariactric surgeons in the world, selected by his own peers. Dr. Kelly is a cut-rate Tiajuana surgeon with a recent death and several horror stories about complications and lying about them. Do more research if you can or email me. That five thousand isn't much if you have to pay for lots of pain and hospital bills afterwards.

Who are you telling not to be silly? That's rather condescending, because people are here to do research on a very serious surgery. I don't think it's silly at all, but a seriously legitimate question. What recent death are you referring to?

I try not to point out deaths and complications of other Surgeons when people ask questions, and try to focus on my actual experience with my surgeon. But we both know both of the surgeons in this discussion topic have had a death and complications because they BOTH have done thousands of procedures. And it is quite normal to have a few complications when doing a high number of surgeries, but they BOTH are considered to have a low complication rate despite this. Dr Kelly has never lied to me, has he personally lied to you? It would be nice if we could keep the hearsay and rumors to a minimum, and unless it's happened to you personally, you really don't know these things as fact.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
