Molding Clinic

I am posting to let you all know about my experience with the Molding Clinic last weekend. . . IT WAS GREAT!

I arrived in San Diego on Saturday morning and was greeted by a driver holding a sign with my name on it. He drove me approx. 20 mins to TJ and another 5 mins to the Clinic. Where I was greeted by Andres, he was very welcoming, and sincere. Andres, told me how the entire day had been set up for me (tests, surg, etc.), and it went just as he said it would! I met Dr. Huacuz and the entire staff working with him that evening and it felt so comforting to have him explain EVERYTHING! And, then answer any and all questions that I had. Everything went as planned and I was pleased, I had some pain, but it was minimum.

I just wanted to share my experience with the Molding Clinic as I have lurked here for info about them. Would I go back? I AM!!

Most patients have excellent experiences in Mexico, but the number of "Nightmares" have been growing out of proportion lately. I went to Mexico one time .. Too many erosions and port infections lately added to the recent drug overdose - you have to be willing to gamble if you go to Mexico. Again, MOST patients have GREAT experiences... then there's the rest of us. I went to Mexico to save five grand, but I owe more than that in bills from all my Mexican related complications. If you're lucky at gambling, go for it. Be prepared for the Mexican cheeleaders though, because some people defend Mexican surgeons and get free fills for sending over referrals. Good luck to you. BUY AMERICAN! Woo hoo! (Too bad I didn't take my own advice.) Don't gamble with your life at least in the United states you can STOP a bad doctor....

You know what I find suspect about your posts? In one thread you say you had a horrible time, but in another you say your wife had a horrible time, then you throw a drug overdose in for good measure. Make up your mind and keep your story straight. It looks like whatever happened to you (if it even did haoppen) has thrown you into such a snit that you are answering threads that were posted to over a year ago. Mind you I am not saying that you should not post your experiences, but what do you have against Mexico or Mexican doctors with experience or patients who are happy with their doctors (even if you don't like them) or a surgery that can be had at an affordable price?

Where have you seen these "nightmares" documented? Where do you get your statistics?

Why do you say that American is always best? It's not, you know. I have lived out of the country and there are just some things we don't do as well as the rest of the world. No, I didn't live in Mexico. I lived in Europe. By the way, I don't get free anything from my doctor. What are you getting for what you are doing?

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
