GASTRIC SLEEVE- MEXICO (HELP)- INSURANCE? DOCTOR?



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am traveling to Tijuana, MExico for my surgery. I am super worried. I am looking into getting Medical Tourism insurance to cover any complications once I get back. As of right now I am scheduled with Dr. Maytorena.... Does anyone have advice? Reviews? Please help. I read horror stories of complocations and I cannot find much on DR.Maytorena except the reviews on real self.

I am traveling to Reynosa for surgery on May 3rd with Dr. Cantu. I am not so worried because I did the same trip last September for the Orbera balloon which did not work for me. I had no positive result at all from that procedure but the Dr. and his staff were amazing. The Dr. and his team brought me to and from the airport and back and forth from the hospital to the hotel. I do not speak Spanish but all of Dr. Cantu’s staff and many at the hospital spoke English. I thought the border was a bit sketchy but that is just my nerves. I felt well cared for with Dr. Cantu and his team. The supplies and tools used were very basic and not as modern as what you would commonly see here. However, everything was clean and I was not concerned In their care.

I had surgery with Dr Maytorena May 29,2017 and was very pleased! He and his staff were all very caring and professional. In fact I chose him because he works out of a hospital instead of a clinic. Down 169 pounds in 2 years, no complications whatsoever!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
