Bajanor Obesity Center



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has been to the Bajanor Obesity Center in TJ for the lap band? If so, could you give some info about the facilities and the dr's etc etc etc....I am still in the research stage of my journey, but have got the money saved and am ready to go! Thanks in advance for your input and support!

Check out the thread entitled:

Any one use Dr. Daniel Huacuz-Tijuana?

Though it's not completely about this subject, on the last couple pages of the thread, there is a recent discussion of this clinic.

Best in your search... :)

Hi Islandmom,

I almost went to Bajanour but could never get adequate responses from others who had been there to set my mind at ease. I changed at the last moment and went to Dr. Aceves in Mexicali because I got a good recommendation from others. What I had heard - from another respected Mexico clinic - was that the Bajanour clinic sometimes put in bands other than the Inamed without telling the patient this. And their experienced doctor is no longer with them (at least in late April he wasn't)

I really like Dr. Aceves - the only drawback is that it's 2 hours from San Diego and while they provide transportation from the airport, it was just a hassle...if there's availability with a clinic in Tijuana besides Bajanour, I'd look into that instead.

I paid 2k more than Bajnour's price but the peace of mind was worth it...I have had no complications.

Good luck!

      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.

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