TIJUANA, MX. — The My Best Medical Solution Group, led by Dr. Miguel Ángel Díaz Mariscal, has developed a comprehensive care model in which bariatric surgery is only the beginning of a process aimed at improving patients’ physical, emotional, and social health.
The specialist explained that weight loss achieved through bariatric surgery brings immediate benefits such as improved blood pressure, better diabetes control, and reduced reliance on medications. However, the program goes beyond these outcomes. “We want patients to live longer and better. It’s not just about losing weight, but about restoring self-esteem, mental health, and a fulfilling sexual life,” he said.
The group is made up of a bariatric physician, plastic surgeons, an aesthetic urologist, an aesthetic gynecologist, psychologists, and sexologists, with the goal of addressing each area in a coordinated manner. According to the doctor, this multidisciplinary model is unique in the region. “Sometimes patients lose weight but continue to carry stigma or emotional wounds. That’s why we provide psychological support and also work on intimacy and relationships, because everything impacts quality of life,” he explained.
The doctor noted that many of his patients are middle-aged individuals seeking real and sustainable change. “Obesity is a chronic inflammatory disease that shortens life expectancy. With bariatric surgery, you can gain up to five additional years of life. But the most important question is how you choose to live that extra time: healthy, happy, and satisfied with yourself,” he stated.
Technology is another pillar of the medical group. Procedures are performed using minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques, while aesthetic surgeries incorporate advanced methods such as laser treatments and hyaluronic acid. “We are in the best era for medicine. Techniques and medications have evolved, allowing for safer and longer-lasting results,” he said.
In addition to medical innovation, Tijuana’s location represents a strategic advantage. Its proximity to the United States, personalized care in Spanish, and cultural empathy help build trust among Latino patients. “Here, doctors are accessible and always available to answer questions. That creates a bond of trust with patients, who often return with their families for care,” he added.
Dr. Díaz Mariscal emphasized that medical tourism has grown significantly in the region, driven by the professionalization of local hospitals, clinics, and specialists. “Today, Tijuana can compete with hospitals anywhere in the world. We are deeply committed to quality and to providing humane care that truly transforms lives,” he concluded.
