I has surgery with Dr Aceves in Monterrey. I can't say enought good things about my experience. The night prior to surgery in a beautful hotel and 3 nights after surgery in a cleaner-than-clean hospital. Cost was $8750 and worth every penny. Feel free to ask any questions about my experience here or by PM.

I was self pay mine has a clause no bariatric surgery. I went to Valley Baptist and Dr Hilmy because they have a better price on the sleeve. $8500 . Another MD had the band at 14,000.

I've heard really good things about them but apparently I am not a candidate for it because my BMI is not over 40....do you know if your Dr does sleeves for patients like me? i really want to leave going to Mexico as my very last option :S

[alliecat1095 128]

Idk remember my BMI and my start weight with Dr Hilmy was 223. I had already started my own diet. I have about 57 more lbs to go. My goal wgt is 140 to 145. Just in case some one is checking I DO NOT WORK WITH VBMC WGT LOSS PROGRAM OR DR HILMY. I can give you their phone number and an e-mail if you have questions.
