Dr. Aceves For A Vgs On A Lower Bmi



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone!

I am a 28 year old 32 BMI in So Cal. I have been considering going to Dr. Aceves, based on the many excellent reviews I've read about his experience.

I have several concerns (I'm sure they are very common) regarding surg in MX. I understand that Dr. Aceves is one of the best, but I'm concerned about the concept of getting surg in MexiCali and post-op.

I would love to speak to someone who has maybe had a VGS with Dr. Aceves? I see great reviews, but I'd love to speak to someone who could tell me a bit more about their experience, post-op. If I could have a chat with you, on the phone, I'd be soooo grateful!

One of my major concerns is that i can't seem to find many long-term patients of Dr. Aceves, or VGS patients in general. I know that the procedure is somewhat new, but I am very concerned about the lack of long-term studies done on VGS in general.

Appreciate any help! thank you!!!

Just to correct you it is VSG - vertical sleeve gastrectomy. I had my surgery with Dr Garcia: an amazingly skilled surgeon on Tijuana. You may want to check him out a bit: he has a great following.

LC, I'm not a long-time sleever (8/31) but I'd be happy to talk to you and answer any questions I can. I'll PM you my number.

There are a lot of happy Aceves patients here. Try
