Our review

Dreams Hospital is a modern, high-end medical service provider that serves Tijuana, Mexico. While a modern and upscale location, it is a private hospital that provides patients with some level of minimal interaction. The doctors and staff are able to provide outstanding education to patients because it is a smaller location, which means they can take more time to support patient needs before, during, and after their procedure.

The location offers a full range of medical services and most types of bariatric care. This includes gastric sleeve and gastric bypass procedures. They start out by providing clients with one-on-one education and evaluations without pressure to move forward. They are transparent about the outcome of any procedure and what it will require for a patient to see results. Dreams Hospital also notes that their patients are their priority, which means they do not rush them in and out of the procedures or to the next medical provider.

Dream Hospital is an innovative location that continues to offer the more traditional types of bariatric surgery and revision procedures. Pricing for any procedure is upfront and open to ensure a full understanding of what is included. They tailor treatment plans and care based on the specific needs of the patient with the goal of providing all-inclusive support.
