Surgeon Testimonial

Jaime Ricardo Ramos-Kelly
My first impression of Dr. Kelly was that he was very approachable. He was extremely easy to talk to and his English was perfect. He was very kind and answered all of my questions completely. I saw him every day of my Mexico trip and he was even there to say goodbye to me when I left for home. His professionalism and bedside manner were great. He always made me feel very comfortable and at ease. He was there to squeeze my hand before my operation and he was there to give me a hug when I awoke in recovery. rnrnHis staff is great. He has an American patient coordinator named Shannon who is totally invaluable. She has a degree in International Studies and speaks perfect Spanish. She helped coordinate my trip and surgery from day 1. She was there with me in Mexico for almost 75% of my stay. If I needed a blanket, she was there for me. She made the experience so great because she was able to help me communicate with the nurses who do not speak English well. She also made me feel like I was never alone in Mexico. rnrnDr. Kelly also has a fantastic medical staff. His cardiologist was wonderful. He spent about an hour with me discussing my blood work and performing the EKG. Everyone was so nice and knowledgable. I cannot say enough good things about his team! They are great and I would recommend them in a heartbeat!rnrnThe only down side is that your aftercare is typically done in the US if you cannot travel back and forth from TJ regularly. My main \"gripe\" would be the nutritionist aspect of the experience. However, Shannon, his patient coordinator, has a lap band and successfully lost all of her excess weight so she is a great resource.
