Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

New Boobs, Who Dis?!
I love my results! I'm currently almost 2 months post op and did it right before the holiday season for down time. This was my first surgery ever in my life.
I emailed Dr. Gutierrez's office for a virtual consultation and they got back to me rapidly. They are amazing at communication and that's one of the many reasons why I chose this location. I sent them photos and they sent me a quote for a breast augmentation with an areola lift & back lipo. Once I had a date confirmed I had to send a $1,000 deposit cashiers check to their P.O. Box in San Ysidro to secure the surgery date & time. (You send them a pic of the envelope to let them know you are mailing it & they email you confirming they received the payment).
Day of Surgery:
**Everyone I met was bilingual and they approach you in Spanish. If you need them to talk in English to clarify things they will or will get someone who can translate. Also, everyone is very friendly which made me more at ease**
My surgery was at 8:30am in Tijuana, so I left my house in San Diego around 7:50am and was early! When you cross the border, it takes like 4 mins to get there. I was greeted by one of the medical assistants and they took me to get my lab work done and to take photos. I met with Dr. Gutierrez and Dr. Diego and they showed me different images of breast sizes that would accommodate my body frame. Afterwards, I went to a patient room where medical staff asked me my medical history and inserted IV's and pre-op medication. It was 11am by the time I was wheeled into the operating waiting room. There were 2 other women in the beds besides me waiting as well. The Anesthesiologist came up to me to introduce himself, walked me through the procedure and made me comfortable. At 12pm I was rolled into the operating room and they injected me with anesthesia (I think it was regional/local anesthesia since I wasn't fully asleep, but I was in & out of sleep and numb). I didn't see Dr. Guiterrez or Dr. Diego, so I'm not sure which one did my procedure.
It was 2pm when I was rolled out of the operating room. I couldn't feel my legs at first, so they made sure to monitor me until I got sensation back and gave me snacks. I didn't leave the facility until 6:30 pm. They give you a medical pass for your driver to cross the border so you can avoid all that traffic back. I went back two times for my post op appointment (2 weeks after & 1 month after where they took out my stitches) and they also give you medical passes to cross the border back.
Below was the cost of my procedure. People lack this context when reviewing and I think it's very helpful, so I'm sharing!
Cost of my Procedure:
breast argumentation with areola lift: $4,900
Back Lipo in 3 areas: $3,000
Extras payments:
- Lab-work $80
- Take home prescription/medications $75
I did not purchase:
- Compression Bra $60, Girdle $160, Arms girdle $100 (I bought these on amazon before my surgery)
- Preoperative Internist evaluation and EKG $100 PATIENTS OVER 40 YEARS (I'm 29 so didn't need this)
- Hospital night $220 (I live in SD and went back home)
I hope this review helps for anyone who's looking to get work done at this facility!
