Obviously I was scared to death of traveling on my own and getting this procedure done. BUT I…read moredecided to go for it and I'm sooooo glad I did. Literally from the moment I arrived - I was treated so kindly - everyone was SO NICE. I met with the doctor and we discussed everything I wanted to do. Dr. Quiroz did my surgery and he was very cool and down to earth. He listened carefully to all my requests and opinions and DELIVERED. I could not be happier with my results. Stress and very large weight gains and losses did a number on my face so I wanted to get a deep plane face and neck lift. I could not have imagined I would look this good. I look so much younger and refreshed - and it looks natural - no weird plastic surgery look. Dr. Quiroz is an artist - but also just a super nice person. He immediately put me at ease and I was able to just relax and enjoy the process. I am a mother to young kids and coming to Vida was literally the best vacation I've had in years. I stayed in the recovery suite. The room was so comfortable - nice TV with streaming services to watch my favorite shows while I recovered. Fast WiFi so no important business interruptions while on my trip. AMAZING food brought to my room - breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Incredibly nice staff that came to check on my medical needs several times a day. It was just an amazing experience that someone like me could never in a million years afford in the US. I'm so happy with how I look - thank you so very much to Dr. Quiroz and all the staff at VIDA.

I had the gastric sleeve done in April 2009, and have referred several patients here with full confidence, and they have all been more than pleased with the results.

I wanted to make sure I fell in love with my results before recommending this surgeon to anyone and now that I have seen my results I can confirm this is the doctor I am sending recommendations to for all my family and friends who are looking to get nose jobs and corrections botched by other surgeons! The doctor and his team went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly and I was comfortable througout the whole process. I had a delay with transportation and the team still took care of me and treated me as a patient. I had a deviated septum and severely crooked nose and he was able to give me the exact results I asked for which was a shape and correction on my nose. Doctor Salazar changed my life to anyone looking for a great rhinoplasty job I hope you choose this doctor!! Thank you so much for this life changing and wholesome experience! My nose before was crooked in every different angle and he was able to make it look even on every side. In the picture of my after result I was still swollen and just had taken off my cast so be aware thats not the final result

And I still stand by this clinic and this Dr. I have just done fillers and Botox here but Everything here is better than any place I have gone to in the states. Here ..you actually see the Dr., product is always better (I think at home product is too reconstituted) , staff is extremely friendly, and helpful, and office is nice modern and clean. Worth the trip down. Every time. If you time the boarder right. You can be there and back in under 2 hrs easy. ....Winning!

My wife went here for a rhinoplasty they charged her $5000 and she received no results whatsoever…read more They broke her nose and took her money, their reviews on google include reviews from 4 different individuals with the same last name as the doctor, as well as someone with the same first name as his receptionist. When my wife tried asking them questions post surgery not only did they not answer the question, but they were also condescending to her, blaming her for the lack of results from her surgery and gaslighting her. Since her supposed rhinoplasty she has had major issues breathing out of her nose and we now have to pay more money to have it corrected. If I could report them to a board her in the states for malpractice and get my money back I would.

Excellence Recovery Home - My Honest Experience (After 7 Days)…read more My husband and I have been staying at Excellence Recovery Home for the past 7 days, and I wanted to share our experience in case it helps anyone considering recovering here after surgery. When we first arrived, my initial impression was that the facility was just "okay." It's definitely not a luxury hotel, and if that's what you're expecting, you'll probably be disappointed. But after a few days, it really grew on me. I realized that it's designed for one purpose--to help patients recover comfortably--and it does that extremely well. Our first room was upstairs, and my first thought was, "How am I supposed to climb these stairs after a major surgery?" We also had an issue with the plumbing in our bathroom--we had hot water but no cold water. The staff let us use another bathroom temporarily while they worked on the problem and assured us that if they couldn't fix it, they'd move us downstairs as soon as a room became available. We arrived on Monday, I had surgery on Wednesday, spent one night in the hospital, and when we returned on Thursday, our new downstairs room was ready. They kept their word. Our new room has been wonderful. The air conditioning works great, there's a large TV with Netflix, Amazon Prime, YouTube, and more, and the hospital bed is surprisingly comfortable. You can raise your head or feet, and it even has a massage/vibration feature. They also provided a raised toilet seat, which has been incredibly helpful. You probably won't find those recovery-friendly features in a hotel room. One of the biggest benefits of staying here is the level of care. They do your laundry every day, help bathe you daily, give you your meds, they take your vitals and you receive a daily lymphatic massage from Carol. If you're interested, Hilario also offers IV therapy to help with hydration, healing, inflammation, and energy. The staff here has been incredible. On our first day alone we met Raquel, Dolly, Cinthia #1, Cinthia #2, Alex, Guillermo, Betty, Yahaira, Alfa, Lupita, Claudia, Carol, Hilario, and several others I'm sure I'm forgetting. There are a lot of people working here, and every single one has been kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. The service has honestly exceeded my expectations. Now...the food deserves its own paragraph. I cannot say enough good things about it. Everything has been fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. A couple of meals were on the smaller side, but most portions were generous. I actually looked forward to every meal, and I don't recommend skipping any because you'll miss out! I even joked with Dr. Rios that I wanted to bring their Chef home with me to Texas. He begged me not to! They also keep plenty of bottled water available, and if you're hungry between meals, just ask--they have snacks, too. My husband is an early riser, so he used Uber Eats to order a small T-fal coffee maker, coffee, and a few snacks from Costco. Later, Alex told us that Walmart is only a couple of blocks away and that it's safe to walk there. There's also a nearby pharmacy if you want to pick up things like Latisse, collagen creams, or other skincare products before heading home. My only regret is forgetting to buy baby wipes! If you're worried about the language barrier, don't be. We downloaded Google Translate, and the staff also uses translation apps when needed. Several of them speak English as well, so communication has been easy. We're leaving on August 7, and I'll have one final appointment with Dr. Rios before we head home. So far, my healing has been going really well. As for Dr. Rios...I honestly couldn't be happier. I'm still swollen, but I'm already loving my results. His work is beautiful, and I'll definitely be posting before-and-after photos once I'm further along in my recovery. Overall, the entire experience has been incredibly organized. Everything runs like a well-oiled mac. They truly have medical tourism figured out. If you're considering surgery in Tijuana and wondering where to recover, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Excellence Recovery Home. I know this was a long review, but I hope it gives you a better idea of what to expect and helps you make the decision that's right for you. Wishing everyone a safe surgery and a smooth recovery!

5 Stars - Truly Worth Every Penny…read more After my surgery, I booked 4 nights at Excellence Recovery House. Let me tell you -- for the price, the quality of care, the food, and the overall peace of mind, it is absolutely worth it. I left after those 4 nights to try an Airbnb for 5 nights, but because I had extensive work done, I quickly realized I couldn't properly care for myself. Today, I'm heading back for 7 days -- and honestly, I should have never left in the first place. The atmosphere is serene, homely, and peaceful. You have everything you need to relax and recover. If you need anything at all, there's a call button and the staff come instantly. They aren't hovering or intrusive, but they are always attentive, following the doctor's orders -- checking vitals, helping with your dressings/faja, washing what needs to be washed, and making sure you're healing properly. The food is extraordinary -- healthy, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. They'll happily accommodate your personal needs or diet. As a hotel owner myself and at 58 years old, I'm a tough critic, and yet I cannot find a single fault in this place. What I especially appreciate is the balance: you're never bothered unnecessarily, but you're never neglected either. It feels safe, calm, and organized -- everything you would hope for in a professional recovery house. Just today, I had to urgently call Maria, the coordinator, and she immediately arranged everything for me, including a driver to pick me up. They also take you to your medical appointments, which is such a relief when you're not able to manage on your own. To be honest, I'm even joking with myself that if I ever come back to Tijuana -- for another procedure or even just a restful stay -- I would happily book here again. Excellence Recovery House is exactly what its name says: Excellence in every detail.

My journey started by researching stem cell treatments in Mexico. I connected with 3 clinics…read moreincluding ProgenCell. I chose ProgenCell because of their professional ways of working with me. First, the communication was superior compared to the other two. All my questions were answered by the same or next day via email. I was always able to connect by phone when I needed to talk to someone. Second, I was able to communicate with the doctors by phone when I needed clarity for my questions. The other two clinics would not let me talk to any doctor even when I told them I needed some answers before paying the expenses for lodging, transportation, food etc. The doctors at ProgenCell were completely transparent with their advise even if it meant that possible stem cell treatment would not work for one of my knees and knee replacement would be the better choice. Third, the staff was totally punctual on all levels. Scheduled phone calls, treatments, transportation for pick up and delivery were right on schedule. Forth, the staff and doctors were kind, patient, thorough, professional and fun to be with. Fifth, the staff even set up the appointments and transportation for x-ray and lodging for me. Really, they were so efficient, all I had to do was show up. It's a little early to know of the long term effects of the stem cell treatment but I have notice an improvement in regards to my pain level and function with my knees after about 2 weeks since my treatment. I was given an IV of 100,000,000 stem cell and 20,000,000 stem cells in each knee. Overall, I'm very pleased and grateful that I found ProgenCell online. I will certainly use them in the future. May the doctors and their staff have a beautiful life...

Dr Quiroz has 40yrs experience & the results have been better than I ever imagined they would be. The entire staff is friendly, most are bilingual so you'll never feel like you're not at home. Don't hesitate to give Vida a call and you can't go wrong with having Dr. Quiroz as your surgeon.

Every single person on staff was truly incredible from start to finish--I felt safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for the entire time. Dr. Flores uses high-quality implants, which made a huge difference compared to the ones I had done 12 years ago. The level of surgical skill is honestly impeccable. I didn't even realize how poorly my previous procedure had been done until I went through this experience--this was on a completely different level. What stood out most was how heard and listened to I felt throughout the process. Dr. Flores really delivered on the results I was hoping for. I've also had ongoing support from Dr. Yessenia, who has been consistently available to answer questions and guide me through healing, which made a huge difference in my recovery and peace of mind. This was my third plastic surgery procedure in Mexico, and I can confidently say I won't go anywhere else in the future. Highly, highly recommend.

I didn't have to think about anything. I just had to be there and relax and rest, and I love every one of those nurses they just had such great personality and they sincerely cared from the bottom of their heart. I wanted to pack them up and take them back home with me to I certainly will be back to visit them because they became like a family to me. They were always available for anything you needed their your . Anytime I a ride somewhere to my they had the waiting for me. Anytime I needed to be fed. There was food there at least six times a day. I've never had such incredible care as this. I felt like I went to heaven I spent so many years raising alone in this time it was my time to get some type of work done for my own benefit sure that I was cared for and loved. They also me shower and bed was always in great shape and comfortable, and I got to have the deepest sleep I've ever had. I didn't even wanna leave. This is your go to place whether you have surgery or not to get some good R&R and you get to meet there that are friendly that are also having surgery and they also have an oxygen if you need to get treatment for that too, and if you need any type of care to get your hand and feet pedicure done, they will call it in and also if you need any type of prescription, they have someone come to you and bring it to you. It is the best don't hesitate to book there. You will not be disappointed. Thank you again to everyone at Bella for all your love and care. I miss you guys Already. Love, Peggy.

Always very helpful and cheerful. The WORST: the food is terrible. Your workaround is to bring your own healthy, protein-based snacks. Every meal was cold if not barely tepid. With the exception of one meal out of 15 meals/snacks. Most meals and snacks were not healthy choices. Chicken/pork hot dog with veggie snack chips. Chicken lasagna was downright cold and had a strange overpowering lemony flavor. Snacks could be canned mandarin orange slices or merengues and a cheesecake cube. I had to ask for protein sources in lieu of the served meal. Every time. I'd ask for a simple scrambled egg, it would arrive overcooked and tepid. Otherwise times, substituting wasn't an option being told the kitchen was closed. Recommend ordering delivery. Something that can't be changed and is a con: the street noise at night can be VERY loud. However, Bella is one of the few recovery centers that is a certified medical recovery center. That's a huge selling point for me. I'd stay again and just plan on ordering food delivery.
