LIMARP’s reviews

Bariatric Surgery in Tijuana Mexico Reviews

We opened our doors in 2012 as a clinic specialized in bariatric surgery and obesity. Since then, we have intervened in more than 10,000 patients that have visited us from all over the world. We’ve performed thousands of gastric sleeve surgeries, gastric bypasses and many other types of bariatric surgery and we have witnessed their results first hand in our patients’ transformation. The smiles on their faces and their renewed confidence when they return to their follow-up consultations make our business and work very worthwhile and rewarding.

Our patient’s satisfaction is also noticeable in their reviews and testimonies. We always appreciate it when one of our LIMARP patients sends their reviews or before and after pictures. We take pride in their kind words and we take measures whenever we notice there’s something that we might improve further. We invite you to read the reviews below.

We are thankful of the trust that more than 10,000 patients have placed on our service. People from Canada, United States, Europe and other states inside of Mexico have taken the decision to travel to Tijuana and place their health in our hands. Many might be skeptical of traveling to a foreign country such as Mexico to receive bariatric surgery, but let us put your mind at ease: Tijuana is the top city in Mexico when it comes to international medical tourism. More than 2 million people visit Tijuana every year to receive medical and wellness services. At Tijuana, you can obtain quality dental services, cosmetic surgery, pharmaceuticals and bariatric surgery as a more affordable alternative than those same services in countries like Canada and the United States. In this case, more affordable doesn’t mean less quality. All the contrary. In Tijuana, medical tourism services comply with international and national standards and are supervised and certified by institutions such as the Secretariat of Sustainable Economy and Tourism of Baja California. Since the medical tourism in Tijuana has been booming and thriving in the past 15 years, the investment in this industry has also been increasing at an incredible rate, and projections show that there will be an increment of medical tourist’s visits in the following years.

Because of its international position, Tijuana also keeps its medical services as an easy and convenient alternative for foreign patients. Most medical services in Tijuana can be covered with American and Canadian insurance and are eligible for financing. Check your insurance policy and talk to your insurance company to see if the type of bariatric surgery or medical procedure you would like to receive is covered. If not, there are many other options we can guide you through. Other convenient characteristic about medical services in Tijuana is that every clinic, including LIMARP, accepts foreign currency and every major credit card. And last but not least, most surgeons, doctors, nurses, and service providers s in Tijuana are bilingual and they can easily provide customer service, education and tourist information in both English and Spanish. At Tijuana you experience international travelling but without feeling like an outsider. You’ll feel right at home.

Our LIMARP clinic has been certified as a COVID-19 safe environment by the Secretariat of Sustainable Economy and Tourism of Baja California and the Global Healthcare Accreditation Standards for Medical Travel Programs. Traveling to Tijuana for your bariatric surgery is safe, convenient and affordable.

LIMARP is located right in the business district of Tijuana, 15 minutes away from the International Border between Mexico and the United States, next to San Diego. We make you travelling and treatment experience easy for you with our all-inclusive packages that include transportation from the airport to the hotel and back and a two-night stay at the Grand Hotel Tijuana. All of this in addition with our Integral Bariatric Program and bariatric surgery or clinical intervention that best fits your case.

Our patients’ reviews and testimonies speak for themselves. They chose LIMARP as their preferred option for bariatric surgery and got to experience the caring attention of our medical team, the surgical expertise of Dr. Liza María Pompa González, and the hospitality of Tijuana.

We are very thankful to our patients for taking their time to write and share their reviews in our social media. We gladly share these with you in the hope that you get to know our services from the people who already lived the LIMARP and Tijuana experience.

If you would like to see testimonies with before and after pictures, click here. You’ll find dozens of videos of LIMARP patients explaining how they lived through their treatment process.

If you’re interested in getting to know more about our services at LIMARP and the medical tourism in Tijuana, or if you would like to know if bariatric surgery is the right alternative for you, please contact us today. We’ll provide you with all the information you need to know to make the right decision for a healthier future.

If you already are part of the LIMARP family, we invite you to write a review in our Facebook page so you can share what was like to travel to Tijuana for bariatric surgery.

I had a GREAT experience from the beginning to where their driver picked me up at the airport and their driver took me back to the airport. Very professional staff, nice and curtious. The hospital is super clean. I was sceptical about going to Mexico by myself for the gastric sleeve but I can´t stress enough how safe I felt and was. I highly highly recommend Limarp.

I had my sleeve surgery on November 12, 2014. Limarp hospital is an ICE and it shows. It is by far the best hospital I have ever been in. The care & concern provided by all there was impressive, even to the guy who cleaned the floors. They all acted in a kind caring yet professional way & took care of everything I needed. 5 out of 5 Stars!!

I wish I could explain how unhealthy I was before Dr. Pompa. I had so many medical issues, I was NOT happy or healthy and I was so tired of trying to get healthy. After the surgery and her belief in what this procedure can do for people like me this is my new life. One with NO medical issues, no stress about my health and pure glee when I pick out what I am going to wear each morning. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul Dr. Liza Maria Pompa Gonzalez.

I had my surgery in June 2013 and Dr. Pompa would come in to the room and tell me to get up and walk after my surgery. She was very caring. When I went down in November 2015 to learn the routine, the minute Dr. Pompa saw me, she immediately hugged me. It felt really great to feel appreciated by Dr. Pompa. Her staff were all amazing both times that I was down there. I will definitely recommend Dr. Pompa for surgery. Her friendliness and dedication to saving peoples lives will always be her greatest assets. Thank you Dr. Pompa for being you.

I have received personal msgs from Dr. P herself. I am so glad we can all stick together and make something great come out of all of this!!!!

The service and care are beyond what I could have hoped for. All the staff are caring, compassionate, well educated and speak better English that many North Americans I have met. While apprehensive when we went we never felt better once we arrived. My gastric sleeve surgery care led me to getting my plastic surgery there as well. I have recommended this group of professionals to many here in Canada.

Dr. Pompa is a brilliant surgeon who truly has a heart for her patients and their health. I had my VSG done by her almost 5 years ago and it was the best decision of my life. I knew that I was in good hands. If you are considering bariatric surgery, do yourself a favour and go with Dr. Pompa. You won't regret it.

I had my sleeve April 2013. I am very happy with my decision. I believe Dr. Pompa saved my life. Dr. Pompa got a surprise when she started to operate on me. I had a Hyannis hernia. It was wrapped around my stomach. Dr. Pompa fixed that at no extra cost. I believe everything happens for a reason. I was meant to go down and have this surgery. I had no idea I had this hernia. Thanks again Dr. Pompa
