Dr Ramos Kelly has his certificates up on a website, so you can check them out. Of course they are in Spanish though.

I believe all the doctors have the certifications up on their website or they would provide them for u if u asked. This is cmeless's wife posting as he is sleeping after sleeve surgery yesterday- we r here I'n Mexicali with dr aceeves and I really cannot say enough about the quality of care or the hospital we r in. I personally had a lap band with the Lopez corvalla in tj @ hospital Angeles approx 6 years ago ( it slipped and I had it removed at the same place with same surgeon approx 2 years later) quality of care and hospital were outstanding there as well- I also had the sleeve in Jan of 2010 with dr almanza at the hospital Jerusalem - ( I would not recommend going there however) I guess my point is that even if the credentials are there it's best to speak with several previous patients as to the quality of care and overall experience with each surgeon.

Best of luck in ur decision!

cmeless - Why do you say that you do not recommend going to Hospital Jerusalem?

      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.
