I had the gastric sleeve with Dr ceaser elenes. The surgery itself was 1000/10. Didn't feel any pain or experience any issues. Excepted the fact that I woke up speaking Spanish....😂😂😂. Followed the after diet for the first 3 months and lost 80lbs.

Surgery date. June 1,2022

Price $3000

Travel $700 (from Miami to mexicali,Mexico).

Hw 384lb

Surgery 372lb

Currently weight 291.

Pros:

The price extremely affordable. Had been getting dicked around by my insurnace for 3 years.

The care (bedside manner) of the doctor.

Getting a new lease on life(not to sound corny).

No more early morning back pain. sleep apnea. Blood pressure meds.

Cons. As with any out of the country surgery lack of a follow up. After the first three months your done no more care. You are on your own... kinda scary.

But do I regret my decision hell No.

A great price

Great doctor

Great facilities.

I give it a rating of 9/10.
