BeLiteWeight - Weight Loss ServicesReviews of beliteweight.com

I had my surgery 1 year ago and could have not been happier. BeLight are great to deal with. Wonderful staff and the surgeons are top notch. Would recommend to anyone.

I had a great experience. Great people. Very professional. Caring nurses. Hospital was great. Conftable and clean room. Great support before and after surgery. I dont regreat anything.

First I would truly love to thank Ms. Joanne and her amazing staff for all the love and support, you guys are truly God sent. Star Medical for making me feel at home and safe. My experience has been so amazing and the weight is steady coming off. Last year May 29, 2015 I walked in the hospital 242lbs and today it's been an whole year May 29, 2016 and I'm 80lbs lighter and feeling amazing I weigh 162lbs and still working on another 20lbs. This procedure was the absolute BEST decision I have made in a long time I feel so much better no back pains and look/ feel amazing. THANK YOU BELITE WEIGHT FOR A BETTER AND HAPPIER ME!

Joanne and her staff at Beliteweight was very professional. The staff was very informative they made getting the preparations for my procedure very easy and everything went smooth. They arranged my transportation from the airport to the hospital and from the hospital to the airport after my procedure . The hospital staff in Juarez was also very professional. The hospital in itself was extremely nice it was like going to a resort. It was a very beautiful facility. The time I spent there was very comfortable. I was there for New Year's. I had very little pain after the surgery it took me a week before I felt normal. I am now at six months since my surgery and have lost 90 pounds. I was at 370 pounds when I went in before my surgery. I was having trouble with my back and my knees my pain isn't near as bad as it was. I had high blood pressure and diabetes prior to the surgery. At 5 months after the surgery my physician took me off of my blood pressure medication and diabetic meds. My only regret is I did not do this surgery earlier. I would like to thank Joanne and her staff and the staff at Star Medica for such an amazing experience. You are providing a very needed service and making it pleasurable and stress-free

I have and will continue to recommend this company to others..especially those in the same boat that I was in: knowing surgery was MY answer but having insurance that didn't cover any type of weight loss surgery. I found BeLite and began my own research in Summer, 2008. BeLite provided me with referrals (names, numbers, email addresses) and I contacted several people with my questions -- I was pretty sure LapBand was what would be best for me, but I learned all I could about Gastric Bypass and LapBand before I decided. I had the LapBand surgery in the end of September, 2008, and am so glad I did. It took less than 2 years to reach my goal. My highest weight was 262, which was in May, 2008; it's now May, 2016, and I stay between 130 & 135. (In August, 2010, I didn't realize I'd gotten down to 123, but that was not good so I had to make an effort to put some weight back on--a 1st for me!!) Anyway, BeLite was THE BOMB. They provided all the tools I needed to do my research and make my decision, scheduled my appointment, sent very helpful pre-op info, and followed up with great information and advice. I knew the people behind the company had my best interest at heart. I received little support from friends and family when I began talking about weight loss surgery but BeLite made it EASY for me to make a decision that was HARD. Just a couple more things!! I had my LapBand in Hospital Angeles in Juarez, Mexico. The hospital was immaculate, the staff members were all attentive & professional (always had someone on staff who spoke English, and my surgeon, Dr Rodriguez, was great! (I also researched him when I was making my decision!). BeLite not only scheduled the surgery, but they scheduled my transportation from airport to hospital, from hosp to hotel, AND the first 24 hours after I checked into my hotel, they called 3 times to check on me! (Thank you, JoAnne Narayan, for all your help!)

I'm so happy I made this decision! I love how I look and feel 💝

After losing 75lbs I can say the sleeve procedure worked. The Taxi at the airport was on time but took us awhile to find him. Hospital was very clean. The staff at Belite and the hospital were very pleasant. Some things that I would do differently: I would forego the taxi from airport and rent a car. Much easier for the person escorting you to your surgery(usually a family member ) to get around town. Also, getting to the airport on time is eaier, we missed our flight out. Also, I'd recommend getting a hotel within walking distance of the hospital (Holiday Inn is next door to Star Medica). If they release you early it would be nice to walk next door, spend a comfortable night and leave in the morning. Also, It's not very comfortable for your escort to sleep in the room on the sofa. One more thing, make cell phone and Data arrangements BEFORE leaving the country. AND one more thing, as there are only a couple of English TV channels in the hospital you may want to bring plenty of reading material, dvd player, or have data access to the web for entertainment. Also, get on the app store and pick up a cheap translator program. You'll need to know a few phrases to communicate with the nursing staff as they have a very limited command of english.

I do not have any negative remarks about this company. When I first inquired online, someone called within 15 minutes and helped me talk through things. People were always there to help me process the type of surgery they thought would be best, go over financial items, and talk through what my experience would be like. This company is full of kind and supportive people who are genuinely interested in helping individuals. My experience in Mexico was all very professional, and I felt 100% safe the whole time. I'm also exceedingly grateful for the payment plan they have me on now. If I were to do it again, I would go with BeLiteWeight in a heartbeat. I wish I could add before and after pictures! I've lost 200 pounds, and BeLiteWeight helped me get there. Thank you so, so much!
