New To This Site, Getting Sleeved In Mexico Sept 26Th With Dr Sergio Quinones



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone

I am having gastric sleeve surgery in a couple weeks, this will be my first time traveling to the west coast as well as it will be my very first flight. I am traveling from Detroit to San Diego and it is a 3hr flight I am a little nervous but more so anxious to get it over with. I am also traveling alone so this should be interesting. I would love to stay in the San Diego/Tijuana area for a few extra days but Im not sure if I will be feeling well enough to do so post op. I think I am going to go a day early instead but I really want to enjoy myself while Im there and do some shopping. Anywho I am ready to be sleeved and start this journey to a new me.... Thanks so much to those who have shared stories it has been very inspirational. I will keep you guys updated as to how everything is going. TTYL :)

Wow! So many firsts at one time and starting a fantastic journey! Take a camera with you! I had my surgery in the US but I have heard some amazing stories from people who were so thrilled with their Doctor in Mexico. Can't wait to hear yours!

Good luck on your surgery. I have heard some not so great things about this doctor and his team. I don't want to scare you--just want you to be okay. One of his recent patients had to have two surgeries as a result of internal bleeding. I pray that all will go well for you.

      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.
