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.

Recovering Nicely in the Hospital
Well I finally had my surgery done today. I am recovering nicely, and I'm not in too much pain. Mostly have discomfort from the gas. The Gas-X strips and the walking really help. I did bleed from one of my incisions a bit when I went to the bathroom, but nothing major. My HW was 337 and pre-op surgery weight was 324. So I lost about 13lbs on the pre-op diet. Can't wait to start seeing the results. The Doctor and the nursing staff are great here and I'm glad I decided to do it close to home and not be in Mexico by myself.
Found my Doctor and It's Close to Home
It has definitely been a long journey, and I have struggled with my weight for years but that is all about to change in 9 days. On March 7th I will officially be starting a new chapter in my life. I was first looking into getting the sleeve done in Mexico as I have to pay the surgery out of pocket since it is an exclusion on my policy, but my family was not too excited about that decision as it is another country and I have two children to worry about. I found a Doctor here in South Florida, and since I am healthy (other than the weight) the process has gone so quickly. I am very excited, but this two week pre-op diet is a mental struggle. I can't wait to see the new me, and have more energy for my children and nursing school. :)
Few Days Away from my Consult
So my family has not been supportive of my decision to go to Mexico,
and thankfully I found someone that is more than I wanted to pay but
something I can still afford. I'm going on the 8th for my consult.
Hopefully we can discuss dates for March. They will be giving me all the
testing I need done and how to bill so that portion can at least be
covered by my insurance. I also have my psychological eval on the 27th. This is getting so real I can't wait!
Provider Review
Dr. Taggar
Dr. Tagger has excellent bed side manner, and has a great and friendly demeanor. He answered all my questions, and they have a great pamphlet that tell of every possible scenario. The office staff is always friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend him to anyone. The staff is excellent, always helpful and friendly. Both Dr. Wizman, and Dr. Taggar are friendly and seem to have a great bedside manner. They also seem very willing to help people.
