Dr. Jalil Illan with Baja Bariatrics and Omar Acosta - A Warning



Recommended Posts

She has actually reached out to me. However, it is her story to tell, not mine. If and when she is ready, I hope she does share it to prevent what happened to her from happening to others. Truly, with Omar, nothing surprises me anymore.

This means that he is continuing to prey upon women even .after. this thread started. You would think he would have reigned himself

In for a couple of weeks! I'm horrified. And I'm so so so sorry for all his victims.

Nothing happened to me. I had the best time. However when I went with my dad for his surgery everything was different.

Misogynist.  Does anyone relate to this?  I became an expert from personal experience.  

 

    "You all may ask, what is a misogynist?  This is a person who hates, mistrusts or mistreats women.  In my opinion, some misogynists don't think they understand what they are doing.  Some may think they are doing this out of love and protection over their loved one, however it is wrong.  I think it is important for all people out there to know about a misogynists brain.  

    In most cases misogynists do not know they hate women.  Most of the time this derives from a female figure in their life who abandoned or neglected them.  This could be anyone from a mother, grandmother, aunt or girl.  These traumas are planted in the subcortical brain and as time goes on the pain for the male gets worst and worst.  This grows to parts of the brain such as the fear processing and memory areas which effects emotional and rational decision making.  
    Most of the time, you never know the person you are falling for is a misogynist.  There are many signs of this time of man.  First off, in the beginning he acts all enthusiastic, charming, flirtatious and fun.  This will make a woman fall for him because her natural defenses are down because she is more willing than ever to fall for him.  Then as the relationship progresses, he goes from an irresistible personality to a rude personality and then quickly back to irresistible.  This is known as the Jekyl & Hyde personality.  The misogynist also tends to be self-centered and very competitive.  If someone else is having more fun than him, he can't stand it.  
    Sadly, some men enjoy displeasing women with this.  It produces dopamine in their brain and it gives them pleasure, making them want to mistreat women this way over and over again.  Some misogynists do not even realize they are mistreating a woman unfairly.  They think they are just protecting the one they love by preventing them from doing certain things because they do not trust their woman enough.  However, when it comes down to the woman telling him not to do something, he feels he can do it anyway.  
   These misogynists bring in their target with their extreme charm and romance.  They wait for the person to fall in love with everything good about them and then their true colors come out.  However, it is too late now.  The victim has become so infatuated with everything about him that he now has complete control.  Now obviously no one should be scared to get out there and date, however be careful when falling in love and make sure you do not let anyone take control of what you do and of your life.

From all the posts I have read about wonderful Omar, this struck a chord and reminded me of a charming, wonderful, nice looking, smooth talking, charismatic, lying, paranoid, thief, abuser, Jekyll & Hyde,  who lived under the guise of church choir member, prosecutor's office volunteer, ex police officer, .......blast from the past (1980s) who nearly destroyed me.     Omar obviously loves his role of being everything to all women, and who in the world needs or wants attention more than us women who feel unattractive/unloved/lonely because of our weight problems?  Move in, move out, the women never meet, compare notes, and he keeps on giving.  But someone found him out.

In my uneducated opinion this doctor will never ever ever let you get through to him.  Much like any doctor, but even more so because he is in Mexico and no repercussions other than financial.

I was thinking the same thing. And even if she does get through...it seems unlikely that he would tell the truth, given that he keeps this guy on his staff. I wish there was legal recourse for all these women. It sickens me that first people have to be put in the situation of going to another country for surgery and then when they do go they get taken advantage of. Grrrrr....

My 2 cents for what it's worth.

I had a lap band done several yrs ago by Dr Ariel Ortiz, he's an excellent doctor and I had an excellent experience. 4 months ago I had Dr Illan do my Sleeve & Omar was the coordinator. I could only afford to spend 5k for my procedure & was one reason I chose Dr. Illan & Omar. I traveled alone & felt safe the entire time and all the doctors were attentive, as well as Omar. If you are traveling alone then I would recommend Omar as your coordinator because I wasn't alone at the hospital during recovery time & I knew he would translate anything that I needed to the nurses and that was important to the overall experience. Dr. Illan was also professional and I'm happy with the results. Starting weight 212lbs and now it's 175lbs.

I've received some new and very disturbing info about Omar from multiple members over the last 24 hours. Does anyone know how we can reach Dr. Ilian directly ? It seems that Omar controls everything from his private email to cell phone. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Alex.

Just a thought.. If you're asking people for ways to contact the 'main man', rather than always being firewalled by Omar, you may need to ask people to do it off this thread.

I suspect everything that's posted is being read by you know who and contingencies are devised accordingly..

I have a good idea with regards to your query. I shall PM you that idea...

I think he's based at the IMSS Regional Hospital in Tijuana, so maybe that's an avenue.

      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.
