Dr. Illan and Omar are awesome! They took excellent care of my daughter and me as her guest. Omar caters to you. He made sure I had Breakfast, dinner and lunch. He even took care of a patients husband of Dr. Venezuala who had been at the hospital without food for days...Omar took him to get something to eat. I think though...i had surgery with Dr. Garcia which was an awesome experience...I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Illan first!

I'm curious. Did Baja Bariatrics set you up with drivers, hotel etc?

Yep, they sure do. Everything is handled from drivers to hospital to hotel to guest accommodations and back again... the only downside is that food isn't easily available in the hospital for guests, but Omar is so wonderful and makes sure that everyone is fed and taken care of. :) Everything was covered under the price and they sure have it streamlined.

Omar did everything thing from picking us up at our location in San Diego, getting my hubby feed while I ate ice chips after surgery and day before, getting us to hotel (super nice!!!) taking us to get meals that we would never have found on our own. They are such great people inside and out. Call him and ask him anything. I already feel like a brand new person :) Wish I had done this sooner. I won't lie- first day hurts but once the gas is out you are feeling good. I went through mysurgery.com but you can also go straight to BajaBariatrics.com You will love the Dr. Illan and his team! 619-623-5368 is Omar's cell. Leave a message and he'll call you back.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
