My wife was approved for her surgery with Dr. Aceves, $13,000.00.

Dr. Aceves is a highly experienced surgeon; Dr. Aceves performs the DS surgery at Almater Hospital along with the most experienced DS group in Mexico; he has performed over 5000 weight loss procedures and thousands of other laparoscopic surgeries.
Weight loss surgery is definitely not cheap. I am going to Aceves for gastric sleeve. It's $8,750. still a pretty decent used car! But compared with costs where I live ($45,000 in Minnesota) its a bargain. Aceves is more expensive but he has a very low complication rate and a fantastic reputation. After months and months of research my surgery is scheduled for November 23rd. I joined a local support group in August and one of the girls had DS with Aceves a year ago and loves it. She highly recommended Aceves and Almater hospital.
Good Luck to both of you! This is quite an adventure for all of us.
I had Gastric Sleeve surgery with Dr Aceves on August 15th and have lost 91 lbs to-date. My experience with Dr Aceves and his team in Mexicali was wonderful -- I highly recommend him.
