Can anyone recommend a surgeon in Mexico?



Recommended Posts

I have TriWest & it looks like their not going to be covering the sleeve anytime soon. :(

So now I'm thinking Mexico. My husband thinks I'm nuts but, I'm totally serious.

So far I've researched Dr. Guillermo Alvarez. Any recommendations would be great.

Thank you so much!

Thank you everyone! Can I ask...Were you guys nervous about the slightest complication? Also, will your insurance company cover any expenses due to complications that may occur when you're home? My primary insurance doesn't cover anything Bariatric & my secondary doesn't cover the sleeve.

Thank you so much!

Hi Superstartover,

My primary doc is willing to take care of me but, what about an ER visit? Will you be covered if you have a leak or an infection?

I used Dr jaime Ponce de leon (through his coordinator Trish) and it was a great experience, Trish was fantastic and the care at the hospital was top notch. I have zero regrets!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
