Dr. Rodriquez in Acuna Mexico - - anyone?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone here used Dr. Rodriquiz before? Was it good or bad? Please tell me ANY info you have about him.

His price is only $7,300 .... which seems very cheap to me. It is so cheap that it worries me.

Thanks in advance,

Sherri

Hi!

Welcome! I'm sorry that I don't know anything whatsoever about Dr. Rodriquez, but I think you might have answered your own question. Do you really want to put your life in the hands of the very least expensive doctor possible?

Do your research. Talk directly to people who know this doctor. Ask his staff if prior US patients will e-mail you and share their story. Make sure what kind of band he uses, because some US docs won't touch any Mexican patient, but especially one with bands besides Inamed. Find out exactly what the price includes. See if other people have incurred "hidden" charges which must be paid before they went home. Talk directly to him, and see if he speaks good English...you can't follow instructions if you can't understand them.

I don't work for him, but I can happily recommend Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana. I had surgery on July 5, and it has been smooth sailing since. But it took me a while to make the decision.

Good luck!

Kathy

I used Dr Jose Rodriguez in acuna. It was a wonderful experience. Everyone was very nice and freindly. I returned home aug3. They have an excellent patient advocate

Barbara that picks you at airport and is with the entire time. If you this doctor you will

not be sorry. My surgery went well they placed 9.75cm band Inamed. It was a total

great experience. The doctor is a specialist in his field. I'm looking forward to my new

life. You can email me direct. kathy-daniel@excite.com

Good luck it is doing something great for you

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
