Ready to Achieve Life-Changing Weight Loss?

Are you tired of obesity affecting your health, mobility, and quality of life? With VBariatric, weight loss surgery is safe, affordable, and effective. Because Dr. Verboonen is one of the best bariatric surgeons in Mexico, men and women travel from all over Baja, the U.S. and Canada, and throughout the world to visit our weight loss center in Tijuana.

Bariatric Surgery in Mexico WHY CHOOSE MEDICAL TOURISM?

Many patients who are struggling with obesity cannot afford the medical care they need in their home country. For these patients, medical tourism is an affordable, safe alternative to expensive bariatric care at home.

Our bariatric surgery center is conveniently located in Tijuana–in Baja, California–just 20 minutes away from San Diego International Airport. Therefore, patients do not have to travel too far from home to get expert medical care.

Featured Bariatric Procedures

Any bariatric procedure has the potential to result in radical weight loss and to alleviate or cure serious health concerns like high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and obstructive sleep apnea. When you consult with the expert bariatric surgeons of VBariatric, we will help you decide which procedure is right for you.

Gastric Band

The Gastric Band Mexico surgery, or laparoscopic adjustable banding is a bariatric surgery procedure that uses an adjustable belt placed around the upper portion of the stomach. This band is made out of silicone and is designed to constrict the size of the stomach and the amount of food that can be held in the stomach. At the same time, it slows down the passage of food to the intestines which helps signal to the brain that the stomach is full. The band is filled with saline which can be increased or decreased based upon your needs and your doctors recommendations. A small port is accessed near the surface of the skin that your doctor can then add or remove saline through. Adding saline tightens the band and shrinks the size of the stomach pouch that can accept food. This should make you feel fuller, quicker and decrease the appetite and as a result help you lose weight.

Gastric Sleeve

Also known as vertical sleeve gastrectomy, vertical gastroplasty, or sleeve gastroplasty, gastric sleeve surgery is another safe and highly successful option to help patients with morbid obesity. Most individuals with a BMI above 40 are good candidates for this weight loss procedure. Normally, gastric sleeve surgery takes between two and three hours to complete, but thanks to extensive training, our bariatric surgeons are often able to successfully complete the surgery in 50 to 60 minutes.

Mini Gastric Bypass

A mini gastric bypass is a restrictive and malabsorptive surgery that limits how much you can eat and changes the way that you process your food. Mini gastric bypass surgery is very similar to traditional gastric bypass surgery. However, instead of rerouting the digestive system at two locations, it requires only one reconnection. This surgery is suitable for most patients with a BMI of 35 to 60.

I travelled to Dr. Alvarez in November 2017 and can honestly say it was the best decision I ever made! JC Urrea was our patient coordinator and he set everything up - from the car service to and from the airport, our hotel stay, and car service to and from the hospital. I was unable to lose weight due to health reasons and my local DR recommended I look into Bariatric Surgery to try and bypass the issue I was having. All of the staff at the hospital were so accommodating and literally there 24/7 for anything - I maybe waited a minute and a half after pushing my button in the middle of the night! DR Alvarez was very informative both before and after surgery and made sure I was 100% comfortable with everything!! I am now almost 7 months post opp and down 100 pounds! I would recommend the staff at Bariatric Mexico to anyone!!

Great surgeon and staff. Would recommend this facility to anyone that is considering any type of gastric weight loss procedure. I had the same nurse from the day I arrived for surgery until I left to go to airport to return home. I had gastric sleeve on a Friday and returned home on Sunday. Then went back to work on Monday. No problems at all. I have lost 100 lbs in 6 months. I feel the best I have felt in 20 years. I am power walking 4 miles a day and 1 hour workout at gym three to four days a week. All of this would not have been possible without a great surgeon and staff. I would be glad to talk with anyone that is considering weight loss surgery.

I had surgery here 2 months ago and it was a life changing experience. The surgery went great and have had zero issues post op. The patient coordinator JC was a great guide through the process. The doctors and the staff were wonderful. My only regret was not getting it done sooner.

I am off of blood pressure meds,cholesterol meds, and diabetic meds, I no longer have sleep apnea, and do not snore anymore, unbelievable!!!!!! I would like to thank the whole team in Cabo San Lucas, from the moment I walked in the door, till I walked out, my experience was perfect. I highly recommend Bariatric Mexico for this surgery, they are simply the best!!!!!

Hear What Patients Have to Say

Dr. Verboonen performed my gastric sleeve surgery one year ago. I flew from Texas alone and was naturally nervous but once I arrived in Tijuana, Mexico he and his staff took great care of me. He’s an amazing surgeon and I wouldn’t change a thing! I’ve presently lost 166 lbs and counting. Thank you Dr. Sergio Verboonen for changing my life!!!
