Granddaddy 45 Posted March 12, 2015 Just wanted to give some information on Dr. Zavalza for anyone looking to go to Mexico for surgery. I chose him after doing months of research but still had my reservations considering I was going out of country to have my sleeve done. Working with Bariatric Pals and David Lopez I could not have made a better decision. Dr. Z is the most accommodating people I have ever met and is willing to go the distance to make sure of your comfort as well as no problems after surgery. His follow up is done by Skype and will go on for 2 years. He has become a friend to my family as well as seeing the results I have nothing but great things to say about him. If you would like to see others that have seen Dr Zavalza you can go to Facebook and look for https://www.facebook.com/groups/856770857736807/?fref=nf Dr Zavalza and Dr Luna Mexico Support Group. Please if you are considering having surgery or just doing research check these men out you cannot go wrong. They are a blessing to those they come in contact with again I cannot say enough or spread enough love for them....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Granddaddy 45 Posted April 2, 2015 Just wanted to give an update about Dr Zavalza and my 3 month follow up visit via Skype all is well and I am on the correct path to lose all the weight I need to. I hit a stall which is normal for the body to adjust. Thanks again Dr Z. and see you in 3 months for next visit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimmorgan 31 Posted April 4, 2015 Hi!! I just got back from my vacation well actually surgery!! Dr Zavalza and Dr Luna were amazing!! The bariatric pal staff were exceptional!!! David lets start is exceptional!! He is there in TJ right with you. A very kind person and from the start says you are family and trust me he is speaking the truth! Robert picks you up and returns you, great guy!! Johnny lives right next door to the recovery condo where you stay. He is available to you 24/7. They are all English speaking and become your friends very fast. You are never surprised by a stranger picking you up or not knowing what comes next. I came alone and never did I feel alone!! Dr Zavalza and Dr Luna are perfectionist. First of all you have full acess to them before your surgery, during and after!! Any question or concern they answer directly to you not through someone else!! Dr Zavalza staples your insicions and removes them before you leave the hospital. You do not go home with stitches you have to remove your self. The drain tube is taken out at the hospital before you go to recovery condo by a doctor and not by a stranger at a hotel! Please research Dr Zavalza . I have heard so many other experiences that are horrifying!!! I give Bariatric Pal and Dr Zavalza 10 stars!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimmorgan 31 Posted April 5, 2015 5500$ contact David at bariatric pal! From the first call you won't be disappointed!! But mine was a revision. So a sleeve is not as expensive:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jesser 295 Posted April 5, 2015 I believe the sleeve is just $4250... but would have to ask David about that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
