Here goes my story. I started researching doctors for bariatric surgery in Mexico. I got my top 4 and this is what I found. Please note that this is just my personal experience. I am not saying one is better than the other.
Doctor Pompa - LIMARP : this was my top choice. I completed my medical history form and sent it in on a Monday. It was Wednesday and I hadn't heard from them so I reached out and inquired about the status of my paperwork. Later that day I received an email informing me that Doc. Pompa had approved my operation and it would be $6,000. I started looking into booking the surgery (she only operates Monday-Thursday). Before I finalized everything I confirmed that it was a sleeve revision surgery (I have a lapband I want to remove and get the sleeve done). Then they responded that it was an additional $1,750. That would be bringing my total to $8,750 for revision surgery which included, transportation, 2 night hotel and 2 night hospital.
Doctor Ortiz - OCC : same standard package, transportation from San Diego to Tijuana, 2 nights hotel and 2 nights hospital for $9,000 (revision surgery). They stated they called me 3 times but I never had a missed call from them nor a voice message.
Doctor Almanza : did some researched and found some USA news report about botched surgeries done by him. He was the cheapest. $4,000 for the revision surgery. 1 night at the hospital and I can't remember how many at the hotel.
Doctor Alejandro Lopez - ALO Bariatric : I must be honest, I couldn't find much on him other than the videos he has approved and have his logo. They were very prompt to answer all my emails and questions. Standard package, transportation, 2 nights hotel, 2 nights hotel. Revision surgery $5,500. I have my surgery scheduled with Doctor Lopez on Oct 6, 2016. I fly put the same day as my surgery. I am currently doing my pre-op diet.
