Can I bring a Companion? What if I want to come alone?

Q: Can I bring a Companion? What if I want to come alone?

Can I Bring Someone With Me? Yes, but we have been forced to make certain changes due to COVID-19. For the safety of every patient and hospital staff, companions are not allowed to stay in the hospital. However, we currently do have visiting hours so that companions can visit patients at the hospital. Transportation is included for these visits. This reduces the risk significantly for everyone, including you. You (or your companion) must pay an additional $245 to $390 for their entire stay at the hotel, depending on the surgery procedure. Can I Come Alone? Absolutely. Many patients would rather go alone than have to worry about their companion. We have staff that will guide you along the way from airport pick-up to airport drop-off. You can also meet friends on our Support Group with the same surgery date as you, so you will never be alone! Related Resources What do I Bring to Mexico? What Do I Need to Pack in my Suitcase?

About the Author: MBC Editor

As the Editor of Mexico Bariatric Center, my passion is to share the amazing success of weight loss surgery with the entire world. I also enjoy guiding patients along their journey to overcoming obesity. There are many affordable options, some of which have similar equal quality standards as the United States. That is what we have built here at Mexico Bariatric Center. While working in the medical tourism industry for over a decade, I have had the privilege to participate in the evolution of patient care, safety standards, and quality bariatric surgery in countries like Mexico.

Can you stay after discharge additional stay of 2 days? Is the proceeds then the same to get to the airport? Will the center get me then to the airport?

  Hi Brad, you can add extra days to your surgery package but there would be an additional fee based on your surgery package. You would stay at the Hyatt Place Hotel and our drivers would drive you back to the airport.
