Like all surgeries, revision surgery carries risks such as infection, bleeding, and reactions to anesthesia. It also tends to be more complex and can have higher risk compared to the initial bariatric surgery due to factors such as scar tissue and changes in anatomy.

Weight loss after revision surgery varies from person to person and depends on the type of procedure, the patient’s commitment to diet and exercise, and other individual factors. Your doctor will discuss realistic expectations with you before the surgery.

Came from Kansas City MO on a referral from a friend who had the surgery last year. Very clean hospital. Dr Carlos was great. Surgery and after care were fantastic. My only complaint would be the timing. I had to quit drinking water at 8 pm the night prior, so I was dehydrated by 3 pm when they did IVS and it took 4 tries.

Lynette Bolt

I have a mini bypass done at CER Hospital on 9/7. The place is super clean. Everyone was very attentive and knowledgeable, starting from Dr Carlos Rivas down to the staffs.
Post surgery I was free of pain, nausea or vomiting. Just follow their leads on what to do before and after surgery and you’ll do just fine.
People always talking about how having procedures done in Mexico is bad, but never done their surge prior visiting these places. I am very happy that I went to CER Hospital and I am very happy with their services and my surgery result.
