I used Dr. Ramos Kelly and liked him. You can read my (lengthy) review by clicking on his name or reading my profile.

I leaving in five days to have surgery in Tijuana with Dr. Garcia.  I hope you make your choice and do well.  I am having surgery so soon it is a little scary.

I went to Dr. Kelly. Great surgeon. Excellent care. Cares about his  his patients very much. His staff is terrific.He checks on you at least twice a day in the hospital and  he visits you at your hotel also. I can't say enough positive things about him! good luck. Message me with any questions.  Linda

I'm going to see Dr. Quionones on July 22nd. This was after months of research. The three you've named are all very good and come highly recommended, so it's really going to come down to one or two things that are important to you besides qualifications, because in my research I found that all of the ones you've named (and a few others) are very qualified surgeons. Days in hospital, maximum surgeries per day, private room with guest accommodations, etc.  Good Luck!
