Dr. Lufti is amazing, as is Franchesca, Dr. Simpson, Dr. Bargoud, and everyone else on the team. While I did have to be on top of my appointments and surgery, Franchesca was very responsive via email and made the process easy. The team took fantastic care of me from my EDG to my GS - I cannot thank Dr. Lufti enough for completing my surgery and helping me to live a healthier life. I would do it again a million times over.
Thank you to everyone!

I had my gastric sleeve performed by Dr. Sarran through ABC Bariatrics at Thorek Memorial Hospital, and the experience exceeded my expectations.

One of the biggest advantages of ABC Bariatrics is that they bring board-certified bariatric surgeons to you—there’s absolutely no need to travel to Mexico or outside the U.S. to access affordable bariatric surgery. You receive high-quality care from credentialed surgeons in an accredited U.S. hospital.

Their cash price is truly the price—no surprise facility fees, no hidden charges, and no billing confusion afterward. That transparency alone sets them apart from many other programs.
