Is bariatric surgery the right weight loss journey for you? Have you ever considered getting plastic surgery in Mexico? This expert interview between DeDe and Dr. Illan from Hospital BC in Tijuana, Mexico will tell you everything you need to know. In the first episode of our new Healing Beyond Borders series, you’ll learn about the surprising quality of care you can receive when getting surgery abroad (from the right places), and Dr. Illan shares a helpful tip for knowing when it’s time to consider getting bariatric surgery. We also tackle pre-op prep, what to look for in a surgeon, and why obesity is a disease, not a personal failure. You’ll hear how advances in robotics and endoscopic techniques are shaping the future of weight loss surgery and why community support is a game-changer long after you leave the operating room.
This conversation is all about empowering you with knowledge. Whether you’re curious about medical tourism or just looking for honest guidance and support on your weight loss journey, this episode reminds you that bariatric surgery is only one part of a much bigger, holistic path to true healing. Tune in for an eye-opening, informative, and inspiring discussion that will help you advocate for yourself every step of the way.
