I used Dr. Elias Ortiz with A Lighter Me. Price was $4600 all-inclusive. Could not have been any more impressed with the professionalism, expertise and compassion with this whole group. I liked having a US point of contacts and Sonya and Ronda kept me well informed and in the loop. As a business owner I am extra sensitive to customer service. I give ALM an A+. From the time I was picked up in San Diego to the time I was returned, my expperience was awesome. They used the Grand Hotel which has a new "medical floor" with special beds and bath fixtures, Place was stunningly gorgeous. The hospital experience was very qualified, clean and efficient. Doctors and nurses were so kind and committed. After we were released from the hospital, they kept us walking by taking us on a shopping trip which included the best "taco broth" and homemade ice cream I have ever had! Did some tourist shopping in a safe but colorful environment. I made friends with those having surgery at the same time and I will probably stay in touch with these folks a very long time!

I had Almanza. I had no problems with him. I really kinda liked him. The staff was good. He hasn't been winning any popularity contests lately but I had a good experience.

I used Carlos Altamarano thru BariatricPal special on 5/28/15. He was absolutely Awesome! His bedside manner was phenominal, appeared to be very knowlegeable, I definitely feel like I received individulized and competent care. Two things that have stood out to me; 1. He held my hand as the Anesthesiologist was inducing anesthesia (not a big deal but has stuck with me), 2. I sent him an e-mail this morning (0730 CST/ 0530 MST, I think) about a concern that I had, he responded in under 30 minutes.

I had Ortiz do my band-to-sleeve revision on 4/27/15. Very good experience from start to finish.
