    Top notch care from Dr Quiroz!! It was absolutely great service from the beginning of my surgical procedure and then with my post op care in their recovery boutique

    That is my nose before the surgery.

    Doctor Carlos Fuentes botched my nose and gaslighted me straight after the surgery. The doctor made my nose look like a big pig's snout. He made me a slope, I didn't ask for it. However, I asked to make the tip smaller, but Dr. Fuentes made it bigger. My nose looks aesthetically unappealing; moreover, it is asymmetrical. After his surgery, I had an infection. Still, I cannot hear with one ear, and I cannot breathe. I am still crying when I see myself in the mirror. Everybody is asking me who disfigured me. When I tried to contact the doctor, his secretary said that the doctor is either on vacation or in surgery all the time. Doctor Carlos Fuentes took my money, my beauty, and my health! I'm going to write to the prosecutor's office. Please do not trust Google and RealSelf's reviews, as negative reviews can be easily removed from there. I wrote the reviews, and it was deleted in a day. Please research your surgeon more carefully

    if I could give Dr Quiroz and his team 100 stars I would! I wanted to have a brow lift done for my 50th birthday in in March so I had my surgery in November. I had a brow lift, dermabrasion on above my top lip , and lower bleph. I was scared going to another country to have surgery at first but my experience was amazing! The nurses were all so kind And caring. I stayed in The recovery boutique for four days. It was super convenient to stay there because they would just get me for my appointments with Dr Quiroz when he wanted to see me. The food was homemade and so delicious. Dr Quiroz is so knowledgeable and my results were more than I had dreamed of. Everyone on his team went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. I feel like this experience is better than anything that you can get in the US. I would recommend Dr Quiroz to all of my family and friends and I do! Thank you Dr Quiroz for making my birthday wishes come true! I've posted a before and after picture.

    I had a tummy tuck done by Quiroz twenty years ago and I have regretted it from the minute I woke up from surgery. It looked like he sewed me up with his feet. He left my belly button horribly scarred and I have not been able to wear a bikini since. There are very good surgeons in Tijuana but he is not one of them. Please, please go somewhere else.

    Unbelievable experience at Vida Wellness and Beauty with Dr. Quiroz! I highly recommend everything about Dr. Quiroz, his team, medical facility, and recovery boutique! Rejuvenated, refreshed, smooth skin and younger looking are typical comments I hear in one day!! I never had any pain and my doctor at home said that was due to Dr. Quiroz being a gifted, skilled, and talented surgeon! I hope you have as much success as I did!

    I'm so happy with the work that Dr. Quiroz did. I've always wanted the excess skin on my eyelids removed and the bags underneath my eyes lifted. Dr. Q recommended a brow lift so I went for the trifecta and I'm so happy I did. I've never had any pain, never taken a pain pill and I healed in super sonic time. (and still healing). The facility is nice and modern and I can't say enough about how wonderful the entire staff is. Smiles on everyone, beautiful young ladies and kind gentlemen. I enjoyed my time there and my experience of the surgery was above and beyond. I'm 76 years old so I don't plan to have other work done but if I had discovered this place and the prices 10 yrs ago you could bet I'd have had more work done. I highly recommend Vida Beauty and CosMed surgical. P.S. Don't forget to tip the awesome van drivers. ;-)

    2 months post extended abdominoplasty and thigh liposuction.

    I'm a weight loss surgery success who had a lot of excess skin. In Nov. 2007 I had an extended abdominoplasty, thigh liposuction and a hernia repair with Dr. Quiroz. Went well, treatment was good, but the thighs didn't react well and swelled up terribly. I stayed 10 days to recover. In April, 2008 I went back to have brachioplasty (arm lift) & breast lift with implants. That's where the major disappointment comes in, the arms were left half done. He took off about half of the hanging skin. At first he told me it would shrink with the compression garments, and later told me via email that I would have to come back for a second surgery, that it was too much to do in one visit. The skin on the back of the arms where the arm meets the pit were sewn into a weird point. Since I had flown in from NJ, if I had known that, I would have gone to a local surgeon instead. I honestly didn't want implants all that much, but he said I'd have no breast tissue left after the lift. I went with conservative, low-profile implants but they kept trying to talk me into big, honking hooters. I was definitely not interested. He never addressed the "side boob" skin, either, after telling me that would be part of it. For years I've had stitches poking through, which hasn't been fun, either. The brachioplasty, arm lift & implants were $7,300, anesthesia was another 500. Didn't include the stay. The lower abdominoplasty and thigh lipo was $7,500, anesthesia was 600, and this didn't include the stay. I still have copies of all the emails with the bills. When I complained about the arms and contributed to plastic surgery review threads on Obesity Help's boards and on Plastic Surgery Journeys, a couple of trolls attacked me about it. Always look for pictures and do a thorough search on those sites if you're interested in reviews. There's another doctor in Monterrey who does reconstruction after massive weight loss, and he's done phenomenal work. I wish I had gone to him. Giving two stars because I'm still happy with my tummy tuck 11 years later, but the arm absolutely suck. I put up pictures but not of the boobs, don't want to get in trouble, haha.

    It was a great experience at Clinica Clausel. Dr. Marc…read moreChabrier is an experienced physician that did my lipo. When coming from the U.S it's hard to pick a Doctor. What sold me was his meticulous way of explaining my procedure, also there was a procedure that we spoke about online, but when he say me in person, it was not necessary, this gave me even more trust in him since he was honest. The clinic was clean my anesthesiologist was great he made sure I did not have any pain. The reason why I ended chossing the clinic was because Dr. Marc Chabrier only performs one procedure a day and I got one night stay in the clinic with a 24 hr. nurse. I felt like a VIP during my stay here To me this made the difference. The receptionist was also great and helped my family get accommodations. When my family went to the hotel around the surrounding area, the staff had nothing but good things to say about further, cementing my trust and the clinics reputation, Thank you Dr. Marc Chabrier. Fue una gran experiencia en la Clínica Clausel. El Dr. Marc Chabrier es un médico experimentado que me realizó la liposucción. Cuando venies de Estados Unidos, es difícil elegir un doctor. Lo que me convenció fue su meticulosa forma de explicarme el procedimiento. Además, hablamos de un procedimiento en línea, pero cuando examino en persona, no fue necesario. Esto me dio aún más confianza en él, ya que fue honesto. La clínica estaba limpia y mi anestesiólogo fue excelente; se aseguró de que no sintiera ningún dolor. La razón por la que elegí la clínica fue porque el Dr. Marc Chabrier solo realiza un procedimiento al día y tuve una noche de hospitalización con una enfermera disponible las 24 horas. Me sentí como un VIP durante mi estancia. Para mí, esto marcó la diferencia. La recepcionista también fue excelente y ayudó a mi familia a conseguir alojamiento. Cuando mi familia fue al hotel de los alrededores, el personal solo tenía buenos comentarios, lo que consolidó mi confianza y la reputación de la clínica. Gracias, Dr. Marc Chabrie. Mon expérience à la Clinica Clausel a été formidable. Le Dr Marc Chabrier est un médecin expérimenté qui a réalisé ma liposuccion. Quand on vient des États-Unis, choisir un médecin est difficile. Ce qui m'a convaincue, c'est sa façon méticuleuse d'expliquer l'intervention. De plus, une procédure dont nous avions parlé en ligne s'est avérée inutile lors de notre rencontre, ce qui m'a mise en confiance, car il a fait preuve d'honnêteté. La clinique était impeccable et mon anesthésiste était excellent ; il s'est assuré que je ne ressente aucune douleur. J'ai finalement choisi cette clinique car le Dr Marc Chabrier n'y pratique qu'une seule intervention par jour et j'ai bénéficié d'une nuitée avec une infirmière présente 24 h/24. Je me suis sentie comme une VIP pendant mon séjour, et cela a fait toute la différence. La réceptionniste était également très aimable et a aidé ma famille à trouver un hébergement. Lorsque ma famille a séjourné à l'hôtel dans les environs, le personnel n'a eu que des éloges à faire, ce qui a renforcé ma confiance et la réputation de la clinique. Merci, Dr Marc Chabrier.

I was…read moreasking about a specific medication and she kept referring to another medication I was also prescribed. I wanted to be clear on what we were talking about so I kept telling her that I was trying to be clear. I guess I "almost made her cry" ?? HAHAHA. That's a new one on me. From the other side of the phone, trying to be clear on medication and she was almost crying? I should have been the one crying. I guess she went crying to the doctor who came on the phone, told me she almost cried. She is supposed to be a professional? What a pathetic individual and she clearly should find another field to work in. Medicine is nothing to be cavalier about and that she was offended that I was trying to be clear and not use the wrong medication is wildly absurd.

    They want detail about my experience as a customer? Buckle up! First appointment was horrible…read more Doctor and some MA came in. No bedside manner. When I had to reveal parts of my body to show inflammation, that's when the MA looked up and at my body (completely unprofessional), given the doctor tells them exactly what part of the body for them to document, which is their only job. Them looking, is not necessary at all. Oh man if I had my husband with me, they definitely wouldn't look up from their notes. They're MA's for crying out loud. They just document what MD says. Also, per any operating business, they prescribe medication, bc medication causes side effects that lead to more appointments and more money. Next appointment I see another doctor who must have mistaken me for another patient, bc I've never seen her in my life. & what do you know, she gives samples of topical steroids. And prescribes more unnecessary ointments that CONTRADICT each other and are not to be used at the same time. Did the MD bother to check? Nope. Oh and their "contracts" that you sign in the beginning does not specify any charge of messaging/emailing the doctor. Cuz guess what? Those emails are the same price as an appointment and they do not tell you, they bill you. And harass you every single day. The same Karen they refuse to fire in all the one star comments below. If they removed my original review, imagine how much time they have in their hands to literally go through these yelp comments and request that it be removed!!!! Pathetic!!!!!!! I stand by my original review. Report them to your insurance. And when the time comes that this practice does this to THE one, don't forget to add us to the class action lawsuit. Not just for medical malpractice and negligence, but also civil lawsuit for FRAUD! Dermatology clinics can charge patients for email consultations, but they are legally required to inform patients beforehand about potential charges!!! If Yelp is as honest as they can be, they won't let businesses like this one flag and remove negative reviews that can literally save a patient who needs to find a real dermatology clinic and see real reviews. Not filtered ones. For the patients suffering with skin conditions, please do yourself a favor, do not go here. "Quick fixes" are temporary, it comes back & worse than before. Steroid ointments aren't it!!!!!! Please go to a reputable practice with doctors that don't just give you prescriptions within 3 min of your appointment.
