MaconMommy 16 Posted January 30, 2017 @@vbrewer82 You might want to take a few thing into consideration: 1) Do you want to have your surgery in a surgical center or a full service hospital. 2) How many days will you spend at the hotel once you have surgery. 3) Will you have follow-up visits at the hotel by a physician after your surgery. 4) Will you have a medical evaluation by a cardiologist before your surgery. 5) Will you have a chest X-ray and EKG performed before your surgery. 6) Are your post-op medications included in your surgery package. 7) Will you have nutritional support from a certified nutritionist and a registered dietitian once you are back home. 8) Can you schedule a Skype, Face Time or phone consultation with your surgeon before scheduling your surgery. 9) Can you have a Skype, Face Time or phone consultation with your surgeon once you are back home. 10) Will you be supplied with a nutritional package while you are at the hotel after surgery.

As of right now i am looking to have surgery with Dr Q at Pompeii Surgical. I've seen some amazing results and reviews from the Bariatric Pal Team MX but Dr Q offers in-house financing and that's the only way i can afford the surgery. Does Dr Illan offer any in-house financing? Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App 2 TransformingHollie and livie1000 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As anyone had their sleeve done with him? Paz share ur experience in Mexico. Hey I am also scheduled with Dr Q at Pompeii. They don't require a deposit so I am still open to other decisions. But as of right now I am pretty satisfied with my decision. I, like yourself couldn't afford the surgery without their in house financing. I just wasn't ready to spend everything at once especially when I have other obligations as well. I'm pretty familiar with the procedure as I did all pre op testing only to find out that bariatric procedures are an exclusion in my plan.

The finance company does anyway. And it has to be paid 3 weeks before the surgery. Plus you have to buy you tickets and send the confirmation to them.

Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App I have a deposit as well and it must be paid three weeks before surgery. I book my flights and send them the info. I am fine with it because I have only seen positive things about Dr.Q and his staff. I feel that I am getting a big discount and a surgeon that is skilled.

teetee88 3 Posted February 2, 2017 This is true. I meant to say that I have no general deposit that must be paid now. But yeah I have the same. And I'll be making that deposit 3 weeks in advance. I've done as much research as I could. And I feel comfortable with Dr Q and his staff. Plus Jack has been really responsive and pleasant. 1 TransformingHollie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
