Dr. Ortiz or Dr. Cueva

[Bethy1234 1]

HI all,

I am new here. I am looking into these 2 doctors in Mexico.

Dr. Ortiz works in Obesity Control Center and Dr. Cueva in Renewal Bariatrics.

Has anyone done the sleeve with either of them and how has it been?

I'm looking for references on both.

Thank you very much

Hi Bethy1234,

There are 2 Dr. Ortiz's that do Bariatric surgery. I had mine done by Dr. Ariel Ortiz at OCC, he did a fantastic job. I have had no negative side effects from the surgery and highly recommend him to anyone considering the VSG.

Yes, I was looking into dr Ariel Ortiz at OCC. happy you had a positive experience. he has great reviews.

a friend had it done with dr cueva at renewal bariatrics. Had a very good experience. When I called them the person I spoke to was much clearer than the person I spoke to at occ. also dr cueva is $2500 less. I would pay if necessary more money, but if I don’t need to why should I

the only reviews I found about him were all positive but they were on renewal bariatrics Facebook page.

I’m having a hard time making a decision.

Your welcome. My patient coordinator’s name at OCC was Efren, he was fantastic. He helped me with any questions and concerns I had pre op and post op. hepHe also was very friendly, professional and promp to get back to me as needed. My suggestion is to call OCC and ask to talk to Efren. For me paying a little more knowing I would be in great hands was worth every penny, after all I went all the way to Mexico to have surgery, and if things went wrong I had no way to hold them accountable for what happened legally. Wishing you the best on finding the best Dr. for you and lots of luck on your upcoming surgery.

Oh, I forgot to mention, Efren has also gotten the VSG, so he was a huge help with providing insight on what I need to expect pre op and post op. I really appreciated all his help.
