BeLiteWeight - Weight Loss ServicesReviews of beliteweight.com

The surgery went well. My daughter had surgery there almost 4 years ago. When she was there she got better customer service. We asked for a pillow and blanket it never came, they took our dinner order twice and it never came. My daughter was never offered any food or drink. When my daughter had her surgery her companion was fed lunch and dinner every day and made sure there was bottled water in the room. I was disappointed at how we were treated by staff.

I had a great experience with BeLite. Joann is wonderful. Everything was explained in detail, all questions answered and they were very organized. I even asked to speak directly to the doctor and he called me back in a timely manner with the reassurance I needed. Hospital was very clean. The consent forms were explained by a physician but I feel like the consents should have been written in English. I think they should have more staff that speaks English. Though we were able to get by using the translation App. Overall a good experience! I definitely recommend BeLite!

Staff was courteous.. Dr's were great.. procedure was painless..

Experience was great.The hospital in Juarez was great.Very nice and attentive.

Experience was great. Make sure when receiving emails that you double check or even triple check that you receive them all. I received all emails except one where it went who knows but I didn’t stress cause due to having a great facilitator and doctor explaining everything I needed to know .I knew what to expect and if I didn’t I reached out to Jessica who knew exactly what I needed to do! Overall, I’m glad I did it. The experience and the help along the way and the following up with us was a plus.

The staff in Juarez Mexico was great, I was treated very well as was my wife. The hospital was good. BeLiteWeight need to share more information on what happens to your body after the surgery. I was one the lucky ones, I lost 80 lb in 6 months, the bad thing about losing so much weight in a short time is my Gall Bladder got inflamed and had to be removed. I would recommend BeLiteWeight to anyone considering weight surgery but they need to get as much information as possible.

When I first got there the experience was great. one of the nurses did blow my vein trying to get blood in my arm when I was prepped for surgery and I have a humongous bruise on my arm still from that that is very sore. Other than that everything leading up to the surgery went very well. after the surgery I was in a lot of pain and it took a little bit for someone to help me because no one spoke English. Once I got to my room I was visited and checked on by the nurses and they were very good no one hardly spoke English but that's expected going to another country but it did make it hard to communicate. I just thought maybe they would have a translator there. the doctors came in and checked on me and answered all my questions and they were very good, but when I would ask the nurses questions they really didn't understand me. So I just kept my questions to myself and googled them. But I have to say the hotel was very clean and the staff was very good besides the language barrier I would definitely recommend this place again to anyone inquiring about bariatric surgery. My nutritionist spoke English very well. My coordinator to the whole process is amazing she has been there for me every step of the way she has answered every question I had and what was very scary she helped me to understand it's not so scary and she was right! Her name is Jessica and she is amazing. I'm 2 weeks post-op and I am doing very well so all in all my experience was a 9 out of 10.

First let me say, remember when doing this you are in another country. Be prepared for a language barrier. With that said, I am a Lapband revision to gastric sleeve. Being I had issues with my Lapband after 5 years, I felt it was time to get it out. I had lost about 45lbs but found I was not losing anymore. I knew if I had the band taken out, my weight would come back, so I opted to go with the sleeve. I am currently about 3 weeks post surgery now. I started at 187. My surgery was 2/14/2019 and to date I’m down to 174. So far so good. The post op diet has been the hardest part. Has made me a bit cranky. Now to start from the beginning of this journey, I found BeLiteWeight when an ad came up after I searched for alternatives to the band. After contacting a bariatric doctor in the states and finding it would cost me over $16,000 to have the same procedure done, I opted to go with BeLiteWeight. I was contacted by facilitator Jessica. What a sweetheart. She was very informative and helped me through the million questions I had. With tensions high along the border towns I was a bit nervous. I decide against Tijuana and went to Juárez instead. I’m so glad I did. The transition over the border was seamless. Once at Hospital Angeles, I got thru admissions with no lanugage barriers. Once situated in my room, it was a little time and I was taken in for pre-tests and got all that out of the way (I recommend arriving a day before your procedure). I was able to have my normal meal the day before. On surgery day, I was taken in and given a mild sedative to relax me. Unfortunately, there was a delay in getting me in so it kinda wore off and there was a bit of a language barrier in that area of the hospital. It was ok though. Finally, we made the way into the surgery area, seemed like a lot of people in there which made me a little uneasy, but I was knocked out fast. Next thing I knew I was in recovery. Felt like I could hardly breath but I guess that was normal. And DONT be afraid to ask for nausea meds or pain meds. One thing they were good at was making sure I was comfortable. The staff was all very nice and despite any language barriers we seemed to communicate just fine. Because of my previous band, Dr Rodriquez had to remove a lot of scar tissue from inside my abdomen so i was in a lot of pain. Thankfully, the day after my surgery I was able to take a shower, but it was interrupted by the clogging of the drain and it filled my room full of water. That was a treat, then that night the water wasn’t working at all. No flushing the toilet. Remember it was México. Other than that all went pretty smooth. I recommend taking a couple wash clothes as those are not provided. And there is only one English speaking tv channel and it’s mostly news. Mylanta is a great way to help relief the gas pain that you WILL have. And my biggest recommendation is WALK, WALK, WALK. That is super important to get the CO2 out of your system. Don’t be afraid to burp and fart as much as you can. Overall I am so happy I had the band removed and had the sleeve done. From start to finish it was a pretty seamless ordeal. And when I left, the cab driver knew a short cut thru the border so it went fast. Just make sure you allow 2-4 hrs before your flight to get thru the border just in case. The border guard will ask for your medications and passport or ID so have it ready. If I had to do this all over again I would. I was nervous in the beginning and now realize it was all unfounded.
