Dr. Huacuz in Mexico?



Recommended Posts

I was just wondering if anyone has been banded in Mexico with Dr. Huacuz? I received several emails from his office explaining package prices with/without airfare and it sounds to me to be a great deal. I was originally going to go with Dr. Ortiz, but they both sound wonderful with care and all. :tired

Thanks,

Judy

I was banded on Nov 28. I would recommend him. I'm down 43 lbs, no complications and feeling great.

Where is his clinic located? I had mine done in Monterrey, I wonder if it is close to him. I chose a hospital though, I was afraid of something happening and I didn't want to be in just a clinic when it happened. Even though nothing happened =)

He is about 10 minutes from the border going into Tijuana. He has got a nice practice and his team is great as I mentioned before. You can also check huacuz.com. I believe that's his website. If not send me a message and I will send the info. good luck!

Hi Judy,

I am scheduled to get banded by Dr. Haucuz on the 6th of February and can't wait! Just took my "before" pics and want to reschudule for tomorrow!! :omg: I have done a lot of research and after having been denied by insurance 2 times now I have given up. Not worth the brain freeze. Keep me posted and I'll do the same for you!

I am curious to know how much it actually does cost in Mexico?

Hi Champagne Sally,

With 2 nights of hospital stay and all the pre-op tests and an Inamed band I am paying $7,000 with Dr. Haucuz. I am totally excited and raring to go!

That is really good. It is double that in Canada and I have a friend who wants to do it, but doesn't have all the funds. So I am going to tell her to look into Mexico...

Thanks and good luck!

I was banded by Dr. Huacuz on 8/30/2005 and I don't have one bad thing to say about him. He was absolutely wonderful! I trusted him the moment I met him, he made me feel instantly at ease. I would 100% recommend him to anybody.

Now, that being said......make sure you have local aftercare, this is very very important. I underestimated the importance of that big time. My local aftercare is over 4 hours away, making it very difficult for me to make the trip to get necessary adjustments, therefore, I haven't lost any weight. There are other factors as well, but that is the main one. So be sure to have aftercare lined up!!!

Dr. Huacuz is THE BEST!!!

He did my band on 4/15/05, I lost great until my band slipped, and he won't contact me, so maybe more research would be better

Dear rere50, You may want to try to email Dr. Huacuz on his contact tab at his web site or go thru info@huacuz.com It always works for me when I set up visits. The best of luck CJay

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
