360 Liposuction in Marroquín & Sandoval Plastic Surgery Clinic

While the surgical outcome was great, the actual hospital stay in Guadalajara was a bit of a mixed bag. If you are coming from the US, it’s important to adjust your expectations, as the "luxury" experience you might expect for the price doesn't always translate to the daily bedside care. The Hospital Facilities: A Mediocre Reality The facility itself felt functional, but the patient experience left a lot to be desired. Dealing with a recovery while navigating a different medical system definitely had its moments of frustration. The Lowlights of My Stay: Hygiene & Comfort: I was in bed for two full days, and my sheets were never changed. Most upsetting was having to sleep on a bloody pillowcase from the initial post-op drainage; it felt unsanitary and made it very hard to get comfortable. Medication Confusion: I was given a revolving door of pills and IV drips. While I’m sure they were necessary, there was very little explanation provided. I often felt like I was just swallowing things without knowing if they were for pain, swelling, or infection. Cultural Differences in Care: Things are definitely done differently in Mexico. The nursing staff was polite, but the proactive "pampering" or constant monitoring of room cleanliness that you see in US private hospitals just wasn't there. Final Thoughts on the Facility The surgeon's skill is the main event, but the recovery environment felt a bit neglected. It’s a "no-frills" clinical experience—fine if you just need a bed, but disappointing if you’re expecting a high-end recovery suite. Pro Tip: If you choose this facility, I highly recommend bringing a companion who can advocate for you, ask for fresh linens, and help keep track of your medication schedule. Also, have wipes, napkins, sanitizer, lip balm and a phone charger all within reach.

I wish I would have waited for the recovery house I wanted to use to have availability. They were booked up so I decided to use another one that was not as highly rated. It was not a bad experience, but it could have been better.

Nothing signifigant to criticise, went fairly smooth.
