Mexico Bariatric Services?



Recommended Posts

Hmm, I could have sworn I posted this last night but I was a little out of it on three klonopin because of fireworks, so maybe I just imagined it.

Has anyone here gone through Mexico Bariatric Services? I am trying to research different places before making a decision. This place has an offer that includes airfare, which sounds amazing. I've already started the process with Bill Yanez with BariatricPal Team MX, but I don't want to just go with the first place I look at. I'd love to hear some info about Mexico Bariatric Services, good or bad. Thanks.

I went with the Mexico team as well, but I went with Dr. Illan. His doesn't include airfare, but it includes everything else in the $4399 price. I've read good things about dr. Ponce de leon too. If you do become interested in Dr. Illan, there's a Facebook group of patients (past and present/future) that support one another, and I posted my experience story on here as well!

I already joined that Facebook group actually. :) I'll probably end up going with Dr. Illan but I want to be sure I do all my research first, just in case I find someone I like better.

I used the belite team. Worked great. If you can fly out of Denver, it's cheap to El Paso TX, or San Diego for the boarder crossing.

Has anyone here actually gone through the company called Mexico Bariatric Services though? I'd like to hear more about them too.

Ignore the link that comes up when I type Mexico... that's not the place I'm asking about.

I went through Mexico bariatric center and had a wonderful experience.

My dr was Dr. Valenzulea, and I felt safe and very well cared for the entire time I was there.

I really have no complaints at all about them

I don't have experience with Mexico Bariatric Services, but I'm also going to Mexico. I've chosen dr. Ponce de leon to do my surgery. Just waiting on the sale of our house to finalize so I can buy my plane ticket and schedule surgery!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
