I am considering having Dr. Ponce in Tijuana, Mexico perform the Duodenal Switch procedure on me. I am looking for reviews of past patience of Dr. Ponce that has had the Duodenal Switch procedure.

Thanks,

Perry S.

The only DS surgeon in Mexico that most people here would recommend is Dr. Esquerra in Mexicali. He, and his hospital, have an excellent reputation. I realize that isn't the review you requested, but you do have to be careful when seeking medical care in any foreign country and that's the best advice I can offer for the DS in Mexico.

I second Larra's recommendation for Dr. Esquerra as the only MX DS surgeon with a stellar reputation.

Swear I've heard horror stories about Ponce but don't have that info at my fingertips.

I have heard horror stories about people making comments like this without any facts.

No Thanks,

Whatever. I said I wasn't positive, didn't make a statement. Knock yourself out big shooter, I mean obviously you know he's the best but I'm not sure why you asked then.

No I do not know he is the best that is why I asked for reviews. However; non factual comments are just scare tactics to people making a big step that is scary in itself. It is not right for people to make comments with no facts to support their statement.

The only place in Mx that I recommend is Mexicali, Esquerra/Wilhelmy. I know this is not what you want to hear but I can't in good conscience say otherwise.
