Traveling to Tijuana for bariatric surgery? Your evaluation should look at more than just weight loss.
Some patients also have conditions such as gallbladder disease, hiatal hernias, umbilical hernias, or other general surgery concerns.
Depending on your medical history, imaging, symptoms, and surgical plan, some of these conditions may be evaluated for treatment during the same surgical admission as your bariatric procedure.
This does not mean every condition should be treated at the same time. The decision depends on what is medically appropriate and safest for each patient.
Before surgery, Dr. Edwin Guerrero and the BOSCEN team review your case to determine:
✓ Your bariatric procedure
✓ Relevant general surgery conditions
✓ Pre-operative studies and imaging
✓ Whether combined treatment may be appropriate
✓ Hospital and recovery planning
✓ Follow-up after you return home
For patients traveling from the U.S., this comprehensive approach can help create a clearer surgical plan before arriving in Tijuana.
