Alberto Aceves Bariatric Surgeon M.D., F.A.C.S.

I had an exemplary experience with Dr Aceves and the rest of his team. The program was very efficiently run and everyone who contributed to my care was very professional and competent. My blog here on OH has a complete report on my experience, and feel free to pm me with any questions.

This was the best surgery experience I have had, ever, anywhere!

Surgery in a couple of days with Dr. Aceves. Can't wait to see his kind face in person.
WOW!!! Dr. Aceves and Dr. Campos are awesome and so are the staff. Very well taken care of. The hospital is sooooo clean and really state of the art. There was nothing I didn't like about the doctors or staff. Would recommend highly to anyone looking for a sleeve.

Dr. Aceves was all that I had read about and more. He truly made me feel like he cared about me, and that I was not just another patient. His staff was wonderful! I have never had a better experience (and we were unfortunate enough to be there while they were having earthquake's and after shocks)!

He was the best! So kind and compassionate and kind of felt like a father type figure to me. He hugs and is genuine and gave me the tinyist little incisions that I could ever have expected! Amazing! I totally cried when he came in to say goodbye to me! What a sap but I truly feel like he gave me the tool to give me my life back! I love Dr.Aceves and Lucy and Karen!! They are the best!

At first glance, Dr. Aceves looks like an honest, caring doctor. My impression of him did not change one bit once I got to know him. He is very knowledgeable and genuinely concerned for the well-being of his patients. The staff at the hospital was nothing short of phenomenal. He is very thorough before surgery and lets you know exactly what is going to happen and exactly what you need to do after the surgery. I was very impressed with Dr. Aceves and his staff and would recommend him to anyone who is looking to have a WLS.

What a wonderful experience.

Very through. I felt completely confident.
Only increased as time when on.

Everything was great. I'm so happy I did this.

My first impression of Dr Aceves was that he is very professional and caring. I was correct. I cannot say enough about him or his staff. Any one thinking of WLS should really consider him you will not get treated any better anywhere else. The doctors where great the nurses where great the hospital yes hospital not a clinic was the cleanest I have ever seen.I have nothing negative to say about my surgery in Mexicali and would recommend it highly.

A gentle, soft-spoken man who is passionate about laproscopic surgery. His history of no leaks and few infections had me sold. I was well taken care of in Mexicali, staying 3 nights in the hospital there with full staff and seeing either Dr. Aceves or Dr. Campos up to 3 times/day. The aftercare instructions were adequate but could have used some additonal specific information on supplements, gall bladder meds, etc. I have no problem recommending this doctor.

Going to Mexico for WLS was to say the least a little scary. The reason I choose to do this was because I was going to be in the area for three months and I could get it done fast. When I first met Dr Aceves it was the day of surgery. He went through everything about the surgery and gave ample time for questions I never felt rushed. The folks that worked for Dr Aceves, Nina, Yolanda, Karen Dr Campos to name a few were extremely kind, professional and always there for any questions. The hospital itself was unexpected. It was so clean and well maintained. Very modern and each patient had their own room with shower and toilet. I also was impressed with the fact that I saw Dr Aceves 4-5 times a day. He always checked in to see if everything was going well. The only negative thing I had to say was that the nurses (not all but some) did not inform patients of things they could do or not. I was told I could have a shower and take my leg coverings off the day after surgery several other gals were not told anything at all. I think this could be because some of the nurses didn't speak English. All in all I would return to Mexico for surgery.

Dr. Aceves and his team made me feel very welcomed and treated me like a person. My experience was great. My husband and I arrived in San Diego on November 8, 2009. We spend a night in San Diego and stayed at a hotel that Nina, (Dr. Aceves's patient coordiantor) recommended. We were able to receive the coorperate rate. The following day Ernesto (Dr. Aceves's driver) picked us up at the hotel. Ernesto was great! He shared his own experience with us regarding his VSG. He showed us his before pictures. He was doing great. This was very reassuring. We arrived at the hospital and test were completed. I had a urine test, chest xray, blood work and an ECG. All of my tests were normal. I met with Dr. Aceves thereafter. He explained what would be happening tomorrow (day of surgery). He told me to enjoy myself and have my last supper. Ernesto took us to our hotel and I must say it was beautiful. He would be back to pick us up at 7am. I enjoyed my last meal. rnrnThe following morning we were shown to our room at the hospital. It was a large clean room with a comfy sofa for my husband. Dr. Aceves and his team met with myself, my husband, and two other patients to discuss our upcoming procedures. He provided us with information about the surgery and the aftercare. He also strongly stressed to us that our lifestyles would need to change. rnrnMy surgery lasted 2hours. They informed my husband by telephone right away that all went well. Dr. Aceves did inform us earlier that if he found any other problems during surgery he would repair. I had a ulcer that was repaired. rnrnI remained in the hosital for three nights. I had constant care from nurses and from Dr. Kampos and Dr. Aceves. I was so impressed with the care that I received that I would recommended Dr. Aceves to anyone. I would rate him as \"10\" on a scale of 1 to 10. He is the best!
