Noneyo 171 Posted December 14, 2016 I recommend going through BariatricPal Team MX and using Dr. Illan at the Oasis of Hope Hospital. My surgery coordinator was Bill Yanez. I had my sleeve on November 18, 2016 and I cannot say enough good things about this wonderful group of people. They are just a very special group. Best decision I have ever made!

Karen Guffey 2 Posted December 14, 2016 Just registered here! Thanks to what I've been reading here, I've decided to begin the steps for a July surgery at the Oasis of Hope in Tijuana. My biggest concern at the moment is post-op. What if there are complications? It could become more expensive to have surgery there than here in the U.S. (Georgia) if I have to return because of complications. Has anyone here ever had them post-surgery?

jimmc77 43 Posted December 16, 2016 Also Guys.... not sure if you thought about it. But the American dollar is @ $1.34 Canadian. So you could save 34% if you come to Canada to get your surgery.. My lap band surgery was $12 000... that means around $8000.00 for you.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GBLady41 393 Posted December 19, 2016 I just got back from Tijuana and my gastric bypass surgery. I went through BariatricPal TeamMX and Bill Yanez. Dr. Illan is one of the best bariatric surgeons in the entire North American continent! And the other doctors, nursing staff, and valets are the best. Oasis of Hope Hospital is a great place with spacious rooms and the nurses come quickly if you push the nurse button. A doctor comes in to visit you at least two times a day to check how you're doing, check your incisions, and answer any questions you may have. Then, you go to Puebla Amigo Hotel and Casino and the rooms are wonderful. One of the doctors you already have met comes every day to check on you. The valets are available to help you during your stay there. They will take you out to tours and shopping and to eat. I have had zero complications since my surgery. I also like the post-op diet phases. I have 9 phases. I feel it allows me to slowly get back to a normal diet, while allowing my pouch to heal. I know I can call the doctor or send her an email if I have any questions. I can also call or email my nutritionist there with any questions. I have two weight loss sisters and I know we will keep in touch. I just wanted to share my experience. I hope this helps. Please get in touch with Bill Yanez if you have any more questions.
