Dr. Hector Perez in. Cancun?

[FABby40 38]

Hi all, I am interested in scheduling surgery with Dr. Perez in Cancun, but have not been able to find many reviews on him. Have any of you used him? How was your experience?

Dr. Perez did not do my VSG, but he removed my drain, did the barrium check, and released me from the center. I found him well spoken, and I was very comfortable with him. I would have definitely use him!

That's great to hear! Thank you Territravel!

I used him and have absolutely no complaints. January 11. A little over a couple of weeks ago.

I started a thread "my experience in Mexico" and gave details of my experience.

Hope this helps.

After giving it much thought, and driving myself nuts with so many Doctor's to choose from in Mexico. I finally choose to have my surgery with Dr. Perez in Cancun. My surgery will be on March 9th.

That's great, 2boys@home! I will be following you to see how it goes! I am thinking of scheduling mine for April 19. I would love to have it sooner, but I have a cruise scheduled for March 30-April 6, and even though it is very tempting to try to get a quick 30 pounds or so off before my cruise, I know it would be a mistake to go so soon after surgery. So, I've decided to wait until I get back. I know what you mean about driving yourself nuts. I keep thinking I made up my mind, and then I start second guessing myself.

I wish you the best!

I also kept second guessing myself! But I was able to great feedback from the people here, and on different forums who had surgery with him. I definitely think your making the right choice of going on your Cruise first then have your surgery. I plan on giving details of my journey so please do follow me.

You'll be glad that you waited until after your cruise. I've been on a few, and the food is so good. No fun watching everyone else enjoy it!

I was sleeved by Dr. Perez on January 25. I recommend him without hesitation. Keep in mind that the entire hospital procedure in Mexico is different than in the States. It is a little more old fashioned (except for the actual surgery which is completely modern). Everything was smooth sailing - from airport pickup to drop off things couldn't have been easier. I do recommend learning a couple of words of Spanish for hospital use if you don't know anything. Words like cold/hot, pain, please/thank you, etc. will benefit you and will probably make the staff laugh. All of the surgical staff speaks English - I am talking about the nurses, of which there are many.

Good luck!
