MarinaGirl 609 Posted May 17, 2017 My response keeps disappearing from this thread when I post it. My fabulous surgeon in Tijuana, Mexico was Dr. Ramos Kelly. I had a great experience and no complications. I stayed at Hospitale Angeles for a few days and then at Hotel Lucerna for a couple of days. He visited me twice a day in the hospital and once a day at the hotel. Since returning home Dr. Ramos Kelly has still provided guidance and answered questions when I needed it. The care I received was better than most US surgeons and hospitals. Do your research and you'll find the best qualified clinician for you. Good luck! 2 Sherry Rice and jensnewbody reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amandaaok 10 Posted September 29, 2017 I had my surgery with Dr. jaime Ponce de leon Palomares, surgery and hospital stay was at Hospital Angeles (which we did pay more for- my fiancé insisted on the biggest/nicest hospital). He was very nice and friendly and so was his assistant Sergio. Absolutely 0 complications and I'm 2 weeks out. Stitches and drain wound almost entirelt healed and looka like there will br almost no visible scars for me. The Drs and staff were very nice and even those who did not speak English at least tried - and to be fair my spanish is not fluent, but they appreciated me trying and it was enough to get by (Google translate worked when there were words we didn't know how to translate!)
