Here are five things that I feel are real benefits to working with this medical center. Number 1 and biggest benefit is the price point. Can't beat it for the results in my opinion. Number 2, the people were polite and espectful throughout the process. The clinic was clean and new and it felt as if it is well cared for. Number 3, Ease of movment from San Diego tp the surgery center. 4 The Dr's Were kind and all professionals. 5 This can be completed quickly without waiting for life issues. Now a few of my down sides. Nuber 1, was not informed that debit cards can not be used as cash in mexico. This means you carry a large some of cash of like me pay the extra for using my debit card as a credit card. Number 2, you must authorize non us transactions on most credit cards before they can be used outside of the us. Would have been good to know. Number 3, the driver to and from the airport was on his phone the entire time we were traveling. As a retired fifefighter, I can only tell you now bad this can end up. Number 4, most of staff were difficult to speak with in English. I have been told by others that they did not have this problem. The medications come in boxes in spanish. Nurse could not translate use instructions. Number 5, and this is no reflection of the treatment or staff but the building next to the hotel was going through major construction during my stay. The noise was very loud from 630 am. until 8 pm. Just not good when you want to get some rest.
All in all, very happy with the procedure and the 50 pounds of results in 45 days. Total cost for me was well worth the minor inconveniences. I would recommend to anyone looking for a life changing procedure at a cost effective price. Best wishes and god bless
