Hi,

I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with specialized bariatrics. I scheduled my surgery for 3/17/15.   Sent in my deposit(check was cashed).  I tried emailing to confirm prior to booking airfare with no response after numerous emails for over a week. Tried calling today the number is "unavailable".  Feeling like I just lost $500.00.  Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi,

I am having my surgery with Dr. Lopez the day before yours on 3/16/15. Thanks to Iskistala (another person on this site) and one other person on another site I am a part of, I was able to get in contact with Dr. Lopez and his team. It's the same doctor and the same staff you put your deposit down for. The only difference is they are no longer going through MBC or SB. Their website is obesityguadalajara.com. It says Guadalajara but my surgery was scheduled to be at Vida in Tijuana and that's still in place. The email of Anakaren who can help you is [email protected]. She works with Dr. Lopez. The phone number is 773-840-8180. Hope this info helps you as much as it helped me.

Hi Nieya,

I'm having surgery with Dr. Lopez in Tijuana in January and I'm hoping you can tell me how your experience was with him and his team? What was Vida like? I've done quite a bit of research and I'm pretty confident in my choice but it'd be nice to hear from someone who has experienced the surgery firsthand. My coordinator has been great and has answered all of my million questions but I'm still a bit nervous because this is all so new. Any advice or information you can share would be amazing!

Nieya wrote a great post- definitely check his new site out!

I was with Dr. Lopez at Vida in January, and it was a wonderful experience. Excited for you! :)

No need to worry M.. Just call or email Anakaren.. I just came home today from being sleeved by Dr. Lopez and this may sound crazy but I had a great time in TJ, Mex. the surgery went off without a hitch and we had a blast. My new sleeve brother and sister and I hung out all week long. 3 of us had our surgery on Monday..
