Mexico or Canada

[Angelika 17]

Hi All, I am close to my final decision to go ahead with sleeve. I have to pay out of pocket so in Canada the cost is 19,000. Still waffling about Mexico. It is a big cost for me. Any thoughts or experiences in Mexico would be greatly appreciated.

My surgeon does the surgery for less the $12000 here in the states, NO. Check him out . Dr. Vadim Gritsus.

I was in the same boat. RNY in Quebec for $21,000 or Mexico. I chose Mexico, one of the top surgeons. I'm booked for October 30th

I highly recommend my surgeon in Tijuana; Dr. Jaime Ramos Kelly. The surgery was done at Hospitale Angeles and I had a great experience and result.

I used Dr. Quinones at Pompeii Surgical in Tiajuana. I had a great experience. I had no complications and have lost 83 lbs since January.

I went to Dr Garcia at Tijuana Bariatrics and had a fantastic experience. I paid 4250 all inclusive, super clean and modern hospital, transportation, and a few days at the mariott, which was also very nice. Dr Garcia is top notch. The care I received was way better than anything i have ever had in the US. My husband wasn't crazy about me getting surgery at all and was really against me going to mexico...until I went and he saw what it was like there and my results. He ended up getting surgery there 5 months after me. We are currently down a little iver 200 between the 2 of us

I went to Mexico. To Juarez. It was all top notch. I had a butler and a safe in my room. They checked on me every hour. It was better than any hospital stay I’ve had. And I stayed at the hospital the whole time.
