There might be a hiccup or two along the way, in my case just a bit miscommunication over the phone but be sure Dr. Ramirez and his staff will be more than accommodating, understanding and kind. Dr. Ramirez is very thorough, he made sure I understand the entire process from the lab work until I was cleared to go home after recovery.
Thank you for helping me on this path to a healthier version of myself.
PS: All my best to the nurses and staff.
My experience got much better once I arrived in Tijuana, I was very nervous traveling to another country by myself for the first time. I was cranky because of a lengthy layover; however, everybody was so nice and understanding, total pros. Dr. Ramirez is so sweet and skillful, my procedure went well, uneventful, I must say waking up from anesthesia was rough, I did experience a bit of nausea post-op; but I felt reassured that a nurse was always around caring for me. The hospital is very swanky, I felt on a spa holiday! Dr. Ramirez was very adamant I stick to all his post op directions, it’s been hard but I can see the results now. My latest weight related issue is going through smaller size clothes so quickly!
I wanted to turn my life around, became healthier and better my appearance. Having Dr. Ramirez perform my sleeve was a great decision on my part! Good luck on your journey.
Dr. Ramirez was outstanding in every sense of the word! Even thou the trip was long all the way from Scranton PA to Tijuana, Mexico, the entire experience was truly life changing, at first I feared language would be a big issue, I was gladly surprised the Hospital staff was very knowledgeable and fluent in English. I felt as I was surrounded by friends and family who took care of me and pampered me especially Dr. Ramirez. He has the best bedside manners anyone could hope for. I'm happy and grateful to have him as my surgeon, he answered all of my questions and put my fears to rest regarding anesthesia and post-op recovery process. It's almost 6 moths after the surgery and I feel awesome, I have new, healthier eating habits and I keep losing weight, so far 28lbs down!!!
My sleeve surgery has changed the way I feel about myself and my body. I'm so looking forward to achieving my desired weight!
I had my Gastric Sleeve done two and a half months ago, I’m enjoying seeing my weight drop week after week, for years I did all the diets and exercise thing and never had I experienced such weight loss, I’m happy for my decision and sticking to all Dr. Ramirez’s directions. He did a great job! I expected a painful recovery but I’ve had none of that. Dr. Salvador Ramirez is so nice; we went through the procedure beforehand and made me feel at ease. Having him explain all aspects of the surgery risks and benefits allowed me to go through with the surgery. I just want to express my gratitude Dr. Ramirez and his team are awesome! BTW I’m 37lbs down!

Very happy that my fist time in Mexico has been such a life changing visit! I traveled from Chicago to San Diego and then to Tijuana, Mexico for Gastric Sleeve Surgery with Dr. Ramirez. I was very nervous until I met the people I had been talking to for so long; it was nice to put faces to the names and voices on the phone. Everything went like clockwork; Airport pick up, pre-op testing, surgery and recovery; I got to meet and have my surgeon explain the procedure in detail. It was a good feeling, very personal care; unlike any other I had in The States.
Dr. Ramirez did an awesome job, I'm almost 3 months and a half post-op and my incisions healed perfectly; I feel so happy; I think I've never had so much energy now that I have lost almost 30 pounds; I'm definitely a lot more outgoing, can't express how much this surgery has changed my life and now also, my wardrobe! Thank you so much Dr. Ramirez.
I'm tremendously happy with the Gastric Sleeve Surgery Dr. Salvador Ramirez performed for me, I'm 5 months post op and feeling better than ever, I'm losing so much of the excess weight I've been carrying for so long, some times it's hard to believe this is really happening to me.
Dr. Ramirezrez was very attentive, I met him the day of my surgery and we talked for a long time; he answered all my questions; he made me feel very reassured about traveling to Tijuana, Mexico for surgery; everyone was so caring and friendly at the clinic, lab and nurses; overall the experience was great, everything went smoothly, I didn't even feel I spent three days away from home.
Back home my PCP told me Dr. Ramirez and staff did an outstanding job; my incisions healed great and I've had no complications whatsoever.
I'm so happy, my family tells me all the time! I have lots of energy and truly a new take on life.
Best decision I've ever taken; took a while but I did the proper research and found an amazing Dr. who took the best care I'd could hope for.
Thank you Dr. Salvador Ramirez for changing my life.
Blessed and so happy!
