I just came home, dr Illan did my sleeve Thursday and everyone there was fantastic. Met other patients that kept me plenty of company, so I didn't mind traveling alone.

I am thinking of going to Mexico too for surgery. There are about 8 names that keep coming up in my checking. How did you guys decide who to use?

[pegrae 88]

I check references called patients and decided on dr. Illan bariatric pal team mexico. If Alex B. Founder of this site supports him it was good enough for me. BEST decision ever! BILL YANEZ is coordinator for team mexico. Tell him I sent you, he will take great care of you. Personal service no big business feeling.

Average cost seems to be around $4500? Some are more and some are less. It really depends on the surgeon and facility you choose.

I am scheduled with Dr Illan on Aug. 23rd. I am doing it thru BariatricPal Team MX. I am about a 3 hour drive from San Diego which is why i was coming down the night before. Unfortunately my husaband cant get off work and my mother is way too frail to travel.

My husband and I are having our surgeries done by Dr Illan on Aug 22nd. We'll see you there!!
