While I haven't had experience with any of the individuals whom you mentioned, my doctor was a great and I highly recommend him. Dr. Alejandro Aguirre M.D. He is a superior surgeon.  Don't think anyone in my area could have been any more successful at the time.

Dr. Aguirre in Ensenada is HIGHLY respected and skilled. He performs Open RNY. He answers emails and is very thorough. Dr. Salvador Valencia is also performing surgeries in Ensenada. He performs Laproscopic RNY on Mondays and Tuesdays there and works in Tijuana as well. He did his fellowship at UCLA and is recognized by many American Medical Organizations for Bariatric surgeries. Dr. Valencia by choice does not advertise on the internet on many sites, but you can find information about him through www.alighterme.com  Good luck Jen
