Monterrey Mexico or Reynosa?
Anyone have a recommendation for a surgeon in these two towns?
Wanting to get the "sleeve" procedure and don't really want to go to Tijuana.
Not too sure how to research a doc and the facilities when I don't have a recommendation
Hoping to hear back
Thanks

Hi,

I just had a revision done with Dr. Zapata in Monterrey.  I have nothing but fantastic things to say about Dr. Z and his team.  The entire trip was beyond what I could have hoped for!

Check out his website:  www.ready4achange.com
 

Good luck!

Jackie

Revision: 1/12/2010-Dr. Zapata;  (338 RNY) HW 245/SW 215/CW 193 / GW 170

You did not ask about Mexicali, but that is where I went for my VSG surgery.  Dr. Aceves was the Dr. I chose after much research.

I like the location, as I too was not sure about going to Tijuana.  Also Dr. Aceves works out of a full blown hospital with ICU unit, etc, and not a clinic.  I stayed at the hospital the entire time after surgery, no going to a motel or recovery house.  That made me feel better knowing that if anything did go wrong I was right there in the hospital with Dr's and nurses. 

I can honestly say that I have had 3 operations here in the US, but that my surgery experience in Mexico was the best surgery that I have every had.  Dr. Aceves and his assistant Dr. Campos comes in and checks on you at least 4-5 times a day and even at night.  The hospital is by far the cleanest hospital I have ever been in.

In fact, I had such a great experience and have been doing so well, that a friend of mine and my sister have both been and had the VSG with Dr. Aceves.

Take your time, do your research and I am sure you will find the Dr. that is right for you.

Made my decision.
Booked for April 8 in TJ with Doc Almanza for VSG
Mexico is my second home so that felt right.
Booked my flights and will stay a few extra days.
Feel gooooood!
