I am getting surgery at the Oasis Hosp as well. But if you google the name it doesn't come up as a weight loss surgery hosp. It comes up with "fraud" warnings for a cancer treatment center.

I am seeing Dr Osuna and that is the hospital she is using as well. I am going to ask my coordinator about that. Have you found any other info?

Looking for some reviews on any of the following:

  1. Dr. Francisco Contreras
  2. Oasis of Hope Hospital - Tijuana Mexico
  3. Renew Bariatrics - Tijuana Mexico

Thinking of booking surgery with them. I just want to be 100% sure I am not being scammed, or seeing a hack.

Topic: RE: Why did you go to Mexico?

I too chose Mexico (Puerto Vallarta) due to my insurance not covering bariatric surgery and I couldn't afford it in the states. I did months of research and checked out the doctors extensively. I work in a hospital so knew what I wanted and what to look for. I am thrilled with my decision and had no complications.

Topic: RE: Dr. Armando Joya recently

I had surgery with Dr. Joya in 2010. Not recent. But he was truly amazing. I highly recommend him. Him and his staff were terrific. The hospital was cleaner than most in the state. I flew from Michigan to Puerto Vallarta and stayed a week. I was able to pay with a credit card. Just email them and ask.

I think I had to pay a bit extra for the conversion of funds. It wasn't much.

You won't be disappointed with him.
