Topic: RE: RNY in Mexico?

In November of 2007 I went to Ensenada Mexico and had RNY surgery. Dr. Martin Salvador has stayed in contact with me over the years and it was the best experience I ever had down there. YES I would do it again. Now, almost 8 yrs later I want to say I did gain weight back. It isn't a magic solution. It feels like it is for the first few years but amazingly the body has a way of healing and adapting. I gained back up to 209 and had to do low carb high fat to lose back to where I am now at 174. If you have questions about my last seven years feel free to message me

I just came back had surgery on 06/03/15 with Dr. Louisiana Valenzuela. I had the RNY Bypass. So far I'm very pleased. I'm following up with my primary doc here. All you need is routine labs done and everything should be great.

Topic: RE: Have weight loss surgery in Tijuana, Mexico

Ok Everyone I'm one week post op and I feel great. I had surgery with Dr. Louisiana Valenzuela. She was awesome I have no complaints. Everything went as plan and I'm already back at work. The funny part about this whole adventure was the person the was the most scared for me to go was the person that had the most fun of all in Tijuana. (My Mom). I have meet so many nice people and formed so many new friendships. If I had to do it all over again yes I would, I would not change a thing!!

Topic: RE: Problems with follow up care?

My primary doctor was really supportive, he gave all my medical history, which I share with the internal med that treated me back in tijuana, I Skype with him, with my surgeon and the nutritionist prior my surgery date and I still have follow up consultations and they answer all my questions whenever I have them, I never had any complications whatsoever!!! good luck !!

Topic: RE: Difference between getting the sleeve done at Hosptial Angeles or Clinca San Juan

I didn't get my surgery in either two hospital, mine was performed at Santa fe, but I had the option of getting it done in Hospital Angeles, it's a very nice and big hospital, only that I had to pay more, but If that's your concern, Im pretty sure Hospital Angeles has it all.

which doctor did you choose?  I had Dr. Kelly.  Are you going alone or with someone?

Topic: RE: Problems with follow up care?

My primary care Dr so lovingly informed me that it was not his responsibility to care for me after surgery. So he let me go as a patient. I was devastated. But you're right, with that attitude I don't need him being my primary care doctor!
