Hi Kim, I am having very similar situation as you are, now I am looking for Mini Gastric Bypass surgery in Mexico. I am wondering if you have had your surgery, and which surgeon did you go with.
Thanks.

Did you end up getting your surgery with Dr. Illan? I am doing research and wanted to hear some reviews. I also wanted to see, if you got it done, how soon were you able to schedule an appointment. I have been going through the process here for a little over a year and my insurance does not cover WLS and its too expensive here. I am jusr so ready. My hubby is wary about out of country surgery so I need to do a lot of research to convince him. Anything you could tell me if you went there would be greatly appreciated.
Was this with Dr. Illan? I see this was a couple of years ago too... how are you doing now? I am researching and want to get it done, but my hubby is wary. I am trying to find plenty of good reviews so that I can convince him that it is safe and worth it. Any info you can share would be greatly appreciated.
If I could give this place a "0" I would. The coordinator by the name of Ivette Perez is a complete scam. She will do everything and anything to get your money and once she gets it you will rarely ever hear from ever again. I tried canceling the surgery date because I didn't feel confident proceeding with the operation. Here is what she sends me after text messages and emails trying to cancel. The funny thing is about the whole situation is that I never in anything that was given to me in writing stated that that I would have to pay 15% of the deposit. I have paper works and emails if anyone would like to learn more of how ridiculous the coordinators are.
BTW there was no contract at all upon agreement, never signed anything.
Hi Pelenaise,
Since you are not understanding that we were trying to work with you, management has decided to enforce the cancelation policy on our contract agreement.
Please see below. Had you cancelled 10 days b4 your surgery date you would have had to pay 15% of $5,110.00 in other words $766.50.
Had you cancelled 5 days b4 surgery, which was was your case (24hours) you are to pay 30% of $5,110.00, that means you owe $1533.00.
Your cancellation for surgery was past the 24 hours, which did not give the Dr time to schedule someone else in your place.
The hotel charged us the $150.00 because the cancelation was the same day you cancelled , since you were supposed to all check in on 9/5.
I asked management to not enforce cancellation policy from contract and to please charge you $100.00 not $150.00 for the room.
I'm will never go with Dr Alejandro Lopez because they are super dishonest. I have proof of everything if anyone would like to see that I've tried contacting them to cancel way before 24 hours.
Hi sammy!
Was wanting to know if you got this surgery done? I am looking to do the same however it concerns me as well
Also, I forgot to tell you that is the same Dr. Gabriel Rosales I was talking about so you did great girl!
Thank you so much! I am so happy to see someone else knows something about him. I will have to go look with Dr. Guillermo Alvarez I have heard good things about him. I look forward to hearing about your journey! and Congratz on picking a doctor!
