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.

World Class Surgeon in Tijuana!

Dr. Lumban is AMAZING!! An artist with a scalpel.
If you research him, you will find someone with impeccable credentials, well educated, who holds prestigious medical honors in the US and Mexico, racked up over the course of his 25+ years of experience.
If you read his reviews (google him in Spanish and English) you will find nothing but glowing testimonials, beautiful before and after pictures and many, many patients so grateful for how he changed their lives.
When you first make contact with him, he is immediate in his response time, fluent in English and Spanish, answers not only your questions, but your concerns and fears. I'd never had surgery of any kind, never been admitted to a hospital, this was going to be my first time and I went into it with confidence that I was going to have an outstanding outcome, which I did.
When you meet him in person, he is SO positive, optimistic and upbeat, his care and concern is evident and goes a long way toward melting any apprehensions.
He explains everything clearly, answers all your questions, he is an excellent, humble, talented human being and truly gifted surgeon (and ear, noses and throat guy).
I had no idea I had a deviated septum. I knew something was wrong with me, but no US doctors ever cared to diagnose me. Dr Lumban not only did, he explained what that meant, with visuals, then corrected it as well as giving me a nose that fit my face- finally!
I didn't show up with pictures of what I wanted to look like after he was done, I just trusted him. I saw his work, read the reviews, studied his credentials, then completely put myself in his hands, and I am SO glad I did!
He is the DaVinci of face sculpting (in addition to his 'regular job' of ear, nose and throat. One day while I was waiting, a small child was waiting as well. People trust him with their small children. She came out with a sucker, and no tears.
He genuinely cares about people on a level beyond just the nose on their face, to coin a phrase. He cares about their overall health, and how they are as people.
I am SO thankful he was my surgeon. If he were to go to the US and set up a practice, he could easily charge 10 times what he charges- I would know. I researched having my procedure done in the states, and I could never afford anyone of Dr. Lumban's caliber.
After care was as great, he even came to see me in the hospital late at night, to go over my care instructions and the prescriptions, rather than assigning that to a nurse and just staying home, he is truly a gift to the Tijuana community, and to anyone that has the fortune to have him as their doctor.
I'll post before and after pictures eventually, you won't believe the incredible difference he made in my life.
