A Personal Take on Hospital BC’s Bariatric Center
Hospital BC is a well-know bariatric center located in Tijuana, Mexico. Hospital BC is the only American owned hospital in Tijuana specializing in bariatric and plastic surgery. Overall, I think they offer a unique bariatric experience. Below are my thoughts about Hospital BC’s surgeries, services, staff, location, and rates based on research from the Hospital BC site and patient reviews.
Hospital BC Surgeries :
Hospital BC offers bariatric procedures, including:
- Gastric Sleeve Surgery:
- Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery:
- Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass
- Revision Surgery:
This procedure, associated with star surgeon, Dr. Jalil Illan, and over 12,000 laparoscopic procedures and 4,000 bariatric surgeries successfully performed over an extensive career. A bit more detail on the success rates of each surgery would be welcome, though. Even so, this emphasis on personalized, minimally-invasive surgeries seems a net positive for someone that might be squeamish about having surgery in a foreign land.

Meet the Staff :
Led by Dr. Jalil Illan, the team also includes cardiologists, nutritionists, and nurses who have had weight loss surgery themselves. To be an ASMBS (American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery) and IFSO (International Federation for Surgery of Obesity) member and a Master Surgeon certifies your surgeon’s expertise. Team members having had their own weight loss surgery is a rare and highly reassuring experience, one that clearly shows alongside the professional approach in serving their guests.

Wrapping Up
Hospital BC’s bariatric center is the real deal, great procedures, great service, great staff, great price. A bit more clarity and accessibility about their tools and success rate would make close the deal for me, but I’d personally trust all of the reviews and Dr. Illan’s experience when considering it as an option if I were searching for a way to get my health back on track.
