Anyone heard of or been to Banajor Obesity Center in Tijauana



Recommended Posts

Hello all, I am in the process of trying to find a doctor to reband me. I have come across a Dr. Alessandrini in Tijuana, and I am trying to find anyone that may have had their band placed there. Please email me directly if you know anything about this place. rccarpenter@excite.com Thank you

I did a lot of research and read a lot of posts on these boards before deciding which doctor to go with in Mexico. Ultimately, I was looking for the best surgeon I could get for the best price. After reviewing all of the doctors, it seems that Dr. Ortiz and Dr. Kuri have the best reputations, credentials and the least amount of complications. I finally settled on Dr. Kuri because he has a web special price right now of $7500 vs. Dr. Ortiz who is charging $8500. My second choice was Dr. Huacuz who charges $7000 but his package only includes two days in hospital whereas Dr. Kuri's package includes two days in hospital and two days in a hotel. In case something goes wrong I liked the comfort of being close to the doctor for the longer period of time. Plus, Dr. Kuri normally charges $8950 so I thought his special price gave me access to an excellent surgeon at a reasonable price.

Dr. Allessandrini and the Banajor Obesity Centre didn't even make my short list based on my research and the reviews that I have read.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
