He's a very professional doctor, super accessible, kind, and friendly. He provides all the information and care you need. He has an interdisciplinary team that works hand in hand with him to follow a protocol (nutrition, psychology, and internal medicine). They perform tests and analyze your specific condition so you arrive in the best possible condition for surgery. During my stay in the hospital, he was very attentive to every detail, ensuring my optimal recovery. He discharged me after monitoring my progress. Since the surgery, he has been very attentive to my follow-up, maintaining good communication with the patient, as does his interdisciplinary team. He has made me feel very calm and comfortable.

Hello, I feel very grateful and very happy with my entire process before and after surgery.
The Dr. and his entire team always supported me, answering my questions, any ailments, or any discomfort.
They are always very attentive and helpful.
The care from his entire team, including nutrition, psychology, and the Dr. himself, whom I highly recommend, was without a doubt the best choice I could have made. He is very compassionate, not just because he wants to make a profit.
He examines you, checks you out, orders tests to see if you're a candidate, and cares and covers all possible areas to make the best decision and offer the best possible surgery for each individual.
I'm 56 days post-surgery, and I feel great. I still can't fully resume my daily life, but the recovery was wonderful with Dr. Enrique and his care! At the hospital they were very kind, they covered my legs with special bandages for any type of coagulation and my device to help me breathe more easily 🥰🙏🏻 I share some photos of me before and how I am now 56 days after surgery 🙏🏻 I highly recommend Dr. Enrique Pliego ❤️☺️

I am very satisfied with the results I have achieved just two months after my surgery. The changes have not only been physical but also in my health. The care provided by all the specialists has been excellent.
I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Enrique Pliego for his attentiveness before, during, and after the surgery. It has truly been a magnificent choice.

It is an excellent option. The doctor has extensive knowledge on the subject. He follows up and explains to the patient and adapts according to their needs. His techniques are minimally invasive and he works in a holistic way to achieve the patient's objective.
