Topic: RE: Mexico Bariatrics Center is a joke!

Just made it home.. And that was so ridiculous on MBC part.. It's a great thing that i travel a lot out of the country and I'm always covered with traveled insurance in case something's happen I know I can alway book a hotel over night and I will be back home the next day.. They need to stop the madness.. Ppl beware of the tricks.. They did a similar thing to a girl who was getting sleeved the same day as me named Maria. Smh!

Topic: RE: How long is the whole process from initial contact to setting a surgery date?

Dr. Lopez was previously affiliated with Mexico Bariatric Center and it's sister company Specialized Bariatrics- he left after his contract expired and started his own practice. MBC has made things very messy and muddled for clients who had booked prior to the split and caused a lot of issues.

Go through Dr. Lopez' new company directly; it might take a bit longer than usual with handling new and existing clients but I'm sure they'll get back to you as soon as possible, its a great team.

OH-MY-GOODNESS - that is INSANE!! They have really mishandled their part in this whole thing.

The worst part was hearing about scare tactics- it's already a concern to travel out of the country for surgery- but to aggravate a patients anxieties even more and threaten- that's bottom of the barrel...

Glad you didn't fall for it!!

I inquired on 11/24, got approved on 11/25 after turning in my questionnaire and Dr. reviewed and picked my surgery date. I paid my deposit which guaranteed my date. I paid the balance by depositing a check in the Dr.'s business account at Bank of America so I was fully paid before surgery.

This was before all the recent drama so it might be a little longer for the moment, but hopefully not more than a week!

Dr. Lopez is a great surgeon, I'm very happy he took care of me.
