I have received several phone calls from patients and potential patients asking for clarification. A few people called me stating that they were confused about information they read on this board, so I’m posting this here so that I can hopefully clear up the confusion. Martin Salvador Valencia, MD, FACS still performs bariatric (including Lap-Band) surgeries at Hospital Angeles in Tijuana, Mexico as well as Hospital Velmar in Ensenada, Mexico. He has chosen to concentrate on his own patients, thus he will not perform the hospital’s cases any longer. This means that surgeries with Dr. Valencia can no longer be scheduled through BeLiteWeight and MUST be scheduled directly with Dr. Valencia’s office by calling 877-765-THIN (8446) or by visiting our website

Thank you and our best to you in your weight loss journey!

You have to look under the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and do an "Experts Search". Just type in his last name (spelled Valencia). Here's a couple of links showing him at the UCLA site:

UCLA News

Spanish-speaking Faculty Experts [uCLA Media Kit]

Scroll down and look under the heading: Medical Experts and sub heading: Surgery

Sorry, but surgery at UCLA is MUCH more expensive! It would be nice though.

Glad to help!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
