Everything U.S. and Canadian patients ask about weight-loss surgery in Puerto Vallarta.
Yes — with a board-certified surgeon and an accredited hospital. Dr. Rosales is certified by the Mexican Board of General Surgery (CMCG), with endoscopic fellowship training, operates in accredited facilities, and screens every patient before surgery.
Most international patients save 60–80%. A procedure costing $15,000–$35,000 in the U.S. is a fraction of that here. Your exact quote is confirmed in your consultation.
Most bariatric patients stay around a few days so Dr. Rosales can monitor early recovery before you fly home. Your exact timeline is confirmed in your evaluation.
Dr. Rosales' surgical fee, the procedure, anesthesia, your hospital stay, pre-op labs, the specialist team and structured follow-up. Flights, transport and lodging are arranged by you — we're glad to recommend options near the hospital.
Candidacy depends on your BMI, health conditions and history. The simplest step is a consultation — send your details and Dr. Rosales will tell you honestly.
Yes. The entire process — from your first WhatsApp message to your post-op follow-up — is handled in clear English.
U.S. and Canadian citizens generally need only a valid passport to enter Mexico as tourists. We'll send a simple pre-op checklist.
Your care doesn't end when you fly home. Dr. Rosales provides structured remote follow-up and nutrition guidance for the long term.
Ask Dr. Rosales directly on WhatsApp — you'll hear back from the surgeon, not a call center.
