    If you check out the group for Quinones there is an actual youtube video of the hospital, with several pictures and I even posted a picture of my room and bathroom. It is very clean and is a newer facility. It is really nice it is called Santa Fe. The hotel I declined it was hotel Del Rio in TJ. I declined because I was ready to go home as I live 20mins from TJ. If you had a chance to read the link Virgina posted about her experience she talks about the hotel with photos. The staff understands pain well, they have a cheat sheet with translations you point it translate. tAll the doctors speak great English with no accents and one is on staff 24/7. They are really nice. Yes a guest can stay with you the entire time minus surgery. Pre-op consisted of yogurt, broths, protein shakes, water, same as everyone else. I will keep it real I cheated aa bit so don't kick yourself if you do just try your best to do it. I didn't have one issue at all not one. Gas lasted 4 days no dumping nothing. Virginia went to the zoo after her surgery that alone should let you know he is good at what he does. I went to work a week later wanted to go back sooner. Just to be on the safe side I waited a week. I have no follow up doctor I have no insurance at all. I think I got everything if not call me.

    Welcome to the forum, I used Dr.Quinones and had a great experience with him. You can't search the web to find anything bad about him. One user had a bad experience with his administration but she did cancel 3 days before surgery, IF YOU MINUS her there are no bad reviews WHAT SO EVER on the web about Dr.Quinones. He is the most affordable doctor on the site and I had the greatest experience. I have not had any pain, discomfort, etc. Here is a patients journey he just sleeved http://www.gastricsleeve.com/forum/g...quinonoes.html I tell everyone to read it because she documented her journey so well it lets you know what you can expect. I know his price is increasing after the 15th of this month from 4k to I think 4,300 but it is still the most affordable. He is the only doctor who won't charge you an additional fee to bring a guest. You get a valet service so let's say you decided you want to fly into San Diego and visit a day or two before surgery, then the valet will pick you up from your hotel and take you too Mexico I LOVED THAT because I live in San Diego so he came to my house and picked me up and dropped me off. After surgery I was able to blog about it. If you have any questions etc. feel free to hit me up. Also his contact 8778688057, and email iprice@drsergioquinones.com

Decision Day

by rtdugger on 10-18-2012 at 12:28 PM
After researching and debating for years, I have finally committed to a surgery day! I am sheduled for gastric sleeve surgery with Dr. Ariel Ortiz in Mexico on November 13th!

I am excited, scared, nervous, happy, joyous, and many other emotions all in one right now. I know this is the right decision for the health and well-being of myself. I am looking forward to being a better, healthier mother to my two amazing children. I also look forward to being a better wife to my husband.
