Be slim Bariatrics was amazing and continues to be. From the moment I applied for surgery they were in constant contact with me and answered any questions I had with in a day everytime. Almira my patient coordinator was so sweet, always available and kept me on track the whole time. She reminded me of everything I needed to turn in or have prepared so nothing was forgotten. Once I arrived in San Diego there was barely any wait for the driver, Raul, to arrive. He picked us up and took us to a park to walk around while we waited for a few other people to land at the airport. Raul was very nice and personable. And very thoughtful of our time. Once I got to the hospital the nurses and doctors were amazing. They were quick to respond to a call light, and very on top of any pain/nausea I had. Most of them spoke English but the few that didn’t it was extremely easy to communicate through a translation app. Dr Mariana and Dr Navarro we’re who I saw the most and both seemed to care very much about my care. I thought it was so cool how involved the doctors were with everything because it’s usually all Nurses assistants and nurses who do the majority of care in America. Karen the nutritionist came and spoke to me and was very helpful and informative and has continued to answer any questions I’ve had about what I can have on certain stages of post op diet after returning home. I think my favorite part of the whole experience is the Facebook group where you meet tons of people going through the same thing and understand everything you’re going through. It’s been great to connect with people on the same journey as myself. I’m very thankful for Be Slim Bariatrics.

This whole experience was an absolute blast! From the excitement of it all to the wake up after surgery. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. I had Dr. Paipilla and LOVED him! I would recommend him to any and every one. The staff was always right there and ready to help. I hate being hot, and my first nurse brought in a fan right away. It made my whole stay so much more comfortable! If you are thinking about scheduling the surgery, DO IT! You will not regret it! 💙💛

I had a fantastic experience with Dr Navarro and via entire team. Scheduling was easy. All my questions were answered promptly. My care at the hospital was great. I’m recovering wonderfully and my only regret is not doing this sooner. 10/10 recommend!

The Be Slim Bariatrics team is so warm and friendly. The coordinator, drivers, hotel staff, nurses and doctors, and nutritionist were all so wonderful. The whole process is ran like a finely tuned machine. I’m 2 weeks post op and just received a call from my coordinator so they check up on you even afterwards. I was really reluctant to go to Mexico for this surgery and now I’m so glad that I did.

Hello, My surgery was February 3rd. I am currently down 18 pounds since surgery. I lost 12 pounds from the pre op diet. So I am down 30 pounds since January 17th. And Be slim was amazing thru out the entire process and I am very thankful that I chose them. My coordinator Mary was great. They communicated they followed up and everything was exactly the way it would be. Thank you Be Slim

Thank you to the staff of Be Slim Bariatrics ! I had my bypass surgery on 01/17/22 and I am happy to say my blood pressure has been lower and my A1C is 6.5. I haven’t been taken off any medication as of yet but I am definitely eating less and better each day. I am glad that I made that step into living better for myself and my family.. if you want better and have a food addiction then Be Slim Bariatrics is the place you want to try.. the entire staff was love from the coordinators to the nursing staff, Dr Navarro and even the Drivers made me and my companion feel comfortable through the whole process ❤️

If you have landed on this review...chances are you are having a hard time with your insurance company approving a surgery for you here in the states. US doesn't make it easy for us. I did a lot of research on finding a bariatric hospital in Mexico and couldn't find anything "bad" about Be Slim Bariatrics. Everything I read and researched was good... and I thought... Why not? Why not take a chance on me. So I did it... and everything they tell you in the support video is true. It happens just like that. I was treated like a VIP from the time I landed in San Diego until I made it home. And they are still consistently checking up on me. If you are on the fence... Let me assure you ... you will be taken care of and probably the best decision you will have ever made for your life. I had Dr. PaiPilla and he was amazing! So caring and kind! It was an all around great experience. Currently I am in recovery and the only advice I can give to you all...is make sure you follow Doctors orders and the Post diet to a T - to ensure the best recovery for yourself.

I had such a great experience with Be Slim Bariatrics from the very beginning! My coordinator Almira was wonderful and has been with me every step of the way! Dr Navarro, Dr Marianna, and Dr Martinez were wonderful and explained everything very well! The nutrition guide was easy to follow and Karen the nutritionist is always quick to respond to any of my questions I have! The staff at CIBA was all great and took excellent care of me! I highly recommend using them for your weight loss surgery needs!

I was quite nervous but everyone was so organized and on top of everything that it put my mind at ease. The follow ups, easy reachable apps, emails etc. have been amazing! Anything I need I am able to get answers in a short amount of time. IN THE SAME DAY! That’s pretty huge considering I don’t even get answers back that fast from my primary doctor.

I didn't know what to expect, but I was very impressed with the care and medical treatment I received in Tijuana Medical clinic. Everyone from Dr. Navarro to all his staff were simply WONDERFUL and I will surely recommend the Be Slim Bariatrics to all my family and friends.
