Help finding OFFICIAL Mexican certified bariatric surgeons

I am attempting to find a surgeon in MX who is an actual licensed, certified bariatric surgeon. The site I was using does not list several of the popular surgeons who are performing VSGs at the lower seen rates for less than $5000. I am surprised. Considering how popular and the seemingly large volume of patients *****port using them for WLS from the U.S., yet from the blog postings most of these patients who have received WLS using them report amicably. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Any members know how to verify that specific surgeons are bariatric surgeons?

Try this get the license number from the surgeons you intrested in and use the following links. 

For Mexican surgeons the link is:

http://www.cmcgac.org.mx/cgi-bin/DirectorioMedicos

To see if that surgeon is a member of the Mexican College of Bariatric Surgeons use this link:

To verify that a doctor in Mexico is a licensed physician you need his license number and you enter it on this website and it will tell you who the license belongs to:

Hi, 

I found Dr. Rafael Abril in Mexicali Mexico.  I am almost sure I will have my gastric sleeve done with him.  If anybody else had a procedure done with Dr. Abril, please tell me about your experience. 

Hi!

I had my sleeve done by Dr. Abril in Mexicali in May.  My experience was great.  I would totally recommend the doctor and Hispano Hospital.  The staff at Hispano is friendly and caring.  The facilities were nice, simple but clean.  I am super excited since I have reached another goal.  Yey!!!  When are you thinking about getting your surgery?  I wish I could tell everyone to stop just surviving life and dare to start enjoying life the way it's supposed to be.  Don't be afraid, everything will be ok!  Good luck!
