Customer Reviews
Based on 5 reviews
"Just had surgery on Nov. 18. I would highly recommend them. There facility is beautiful and very clean. Not to mention the whole staff at limarp from Delia at the front desk to the nurses, Doctors, nutritionist, psychologist and of course DR. Pompa, are all fantastic to deal with. Friendly, knowledgeable, very helpful and caring. If your thinking about it. Do it! You won't regret it."
"My girlfriend came for gastric bypass surgery from Canada. We were both worried about coming to Tijuana for surgery. And quick from day one everyone was absolutely perfect. I can’t say enough great things about every single person here. Dr. Pompa did her surgery and is world renowned and Veronica stands out as one of the nurses who was absolutely perfect."
"They took amazing care of me during my stay and surgery. I would definitely go back. Very attentive. Night and day difference, recommend the all inclusive over anything we have in the states."
"I underwent a gastric bypass revision surgery at LIMARP on April 23rd, 2025, following my initial gastric sleeve procedure in 2014—both performed by Dr. Pompa. I cannot speak highly enough of her expertise, compassion, and thoroughness. She takes the time to explain every detail, which truly puts you at ease and builds trust. The nursing team and staff are equally exceptional, providing attentive care and support throughout the entire process. The aftercare at LIMARP is outstanding. If you’re considering gastric surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend LIMARP—they are truly the best in the field."
"I had surgery with Dr. Pompa and I cant say enough good things about my experience. From start to finish the entire team was exceptional. They all have been professional, compassionate and incredibly supportive every step of the way."
