How likely are you to recommend Dr. Ponce-Portugal?
I have had problems for over 18 months after Roux en Y gastric bypass surgery (performed by another surgeon). Dr. Ponce actually listened to me and repaired a hernia that has resovled a lot of the issues I had been suffering with. The only complaint I have is that the second follow up after the surgery was cancelled by his staff. I have been trying for over 2 weeks to reschedule, but I cannot get anyone to call me back to schedule this final follow up. I would have given 5 stars otherwise. At this point I don't know if everything is okay or not. :(
