Beginning My Journey To Mexico



Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled to have my VSG on February 2 with Dr. Lopez in Tijuana. I've read success stories on the research I've done n I was just wondering if there were anyone on here who has done it.

I'm pretty excited and can't wait for this long life change!!

I did mine in Tijuana, too, with a different doctor and was VERY pleased. The hospital was very clean, the people super nice, and the city is lovely. I know it has some bad parts, but I didn't see those. The beach is just lovely. I hope you have a very successful surgery and a wonderful trip. If you're like most of the Mexico cases, it won't be long before you are feeling fantastic! If you go out to eat after surgery, Cafe Mole (?name) restaurant (located near the circle and Lucerna hotel) has WONDERFUL chicken broth! Good luck. It'll be here before you know it.

You need to check out the forum Self Pay & Mexico.. there are tons of people on there, lots of experience with all the different Doctors in Mexico :D

I had surgery with a different dr but in Tijuana and May and had a great experience. I second that Cafe Mole broth. A couple sips of that and a couple sips of pineapple juice and your new sleeve will be very happy!
