My aunt had surgery there and she and my uncle were both very pleased with the care she received there.

I am planning on having my Gastric Sleeve through Mexico Bariatric Center. I have researched them for a while now and I think they are hands down one of the best ones.

I have my WLS scheduled for August 11th, with Dr. Cabrera also with Mexico Bariatric Center, currently doing my 2 week pre op diet.

Had surgery there with Dr Valenzuela. Done in January. 70 lbs down now. My experience was perfect :-) no worries at all!

Looking to schedule mine soon as well, for Juarez. Got a question though, does anyone know if bringing a person with you is mandatory or is there a way around that if we have nobody to go??

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
