I've pretty much been overweight my entire life. You name the diet and I've done it. In May 2013, I gave birth and weighed 363 the day I left the hospital. I got down to 270 and now I'm at 288. I have decided to get sleeved and will be having surgery in Tijuana with Dr. Maytorena. I originally was interested in the lap band but after speaking with others as well as the coordinator from Dr. Maytorenas office, I decided on getting sleeved. Ruben is the coordinator for Maytorena office and she is very informational and responds to every inquiry that I have. Im overly excited for my new journey!

You have picked a excellent Doctor. Dr Maytorena did my surgery on October 12,2015. He and his staff are execellent! I had revision surgery done there. And with all the scar tissue and everything that was happening inside of me he repaired every last bit of it. That man is a miracle surgeon. The facility is small but very clean. It's fully staffed and there care is 24 hours there and at the recovery house. His staff speaks English so don't be worried about that. There personal driver Annette is wonderful. She even bought me gift on the day I left Mexico. Your going to do great with this doctor. They play music in the surgery area to make you feel calm. There recovery house is great too. All of his staff will make you feel at ease. I weighed 250 lbs and now I'm at 188lbs. God Bless you on your new weight loss journey. I pray everything goes great for you. Which I know from first hand experience with him it will. Keep in touch to let me know how your doing.

Thank you so much for your words, you've inspired me to keep on keeping on!! I still can't believe I'm having surgery in a 3 world country but I personally know a few individuals that have been sleeved by Dr. Maytorena and have had nothing but good things to say about the whole experience and I'm hopeful I will be just as satisfied!
