Mexico - Hospital vs Hotel Recovery
on 1/27/13 11:27 am
I'm very concerned with the idea of recuperating in a hotel vs a hospital. I jus****ched my sis go thru VSG in the states and she stayed in the hospital for two nights. She had no issues, but I certainly felt better knowing that she was in a hospital.
Is there any list on the forum (or anywhere that anyone knows of) that designates which Mexican Surgeons use hospital recovery vs hotel recovery? Trying to determine this info via the website of each surgeon is a little confusing.
Thank you everyone in advance!

Sorry I don't know of a list. I did the 2 day hospital and 2 day beautiful hotel stay thing. I had a friend with me. Everything went fine. My Dr. (Dr. Kelly) also came to the hotel to check on us. His coordinator also checked on us and actually took us out shopping. That's how good we felt! You certainly could rest at the hotel but we went out both days. Message me with any questions.
I went to Dr. Ponce in Tijauana, I stayed 3 nights in hospital and 2 in the Lucerna hotel. Very nice. Check my Blog. It will tell you more. VSG surgeries stay 2 nights in hospital and 2 in hotel. check out wls-for betterlife on facebook or email Trish the patient co-ordinator at [email protected]. If you have anymore questions feel free to add me as friend and send me a pm. Barb
My sis was sleeved the same day and the only thing I'd change is that I'd spend a little less time gabbing with other patients and more time walking. (gas pain isn't fun) The care was exceptional in every way.
