Dr. Sandy Bariatrics

When patients travel across the world to trust us with their health, we take that responsibility seriously. Steve flew all the way from the beautiful island of Saint Martin to Cornerstone Bariatrics in Tijuana for his bariatric surgery.

Today, he is down 56 lbs (27 kg)! Beyond the incredible physical transformation, the most rewarding part for our medical team is seeing the joy in his smile and hearing him say, 'I love my life.' This is exactly why we maintain premium, U.S.-standard care for our international patients.

If you are considering traveling for your health transformation, our bilingual team is ready to guide you safely through every step of the process. Send us a message today to start your journey.

Have you ever hidden food wrappers at the bottom of the trash? You aren't weak—it’s a biological trap.

As a bariatric surgeon, I've realized that true physical transformation requires healing the emotional hunger that drives our relationship with food. That’s why I am launching a brand-new channel: The Weight of the Soul.

If you’ve ever wanted to know where hard medical science meets Christian faith, this is the place. I’ll be posting weekly videos explaining the science of emotional eating, how to break the cortisol cycle, and how to stop secret binge eating—all completely without judgment.

Come see what it’s all about and join this new community to heal from the inside out!

Do you know what I do when I'm not in the operating room? ☀️

I spent this Sunday recharging my heart and soul at a beautiful women's retreat! As much as I love surgery and medical science, true health is about balance. Taking time to disconnect, pray, and share with an amazing community of women is exactly what I needed to start this surgical week strong.

Did you do anything to recharge your energy this weekend?

🚨 Researching Bariatric Surgery? Read This Before You Book! 🚨

At Dr. Sandy Martinez's practice in Tijuana, your long-term health and safety are our absolute priorities. We help thousands of US patients safely cross the border for life-changing results—which is why we need to warn you about the SASI procedure.

Patients often confuse SASI with the approved SADI-S surgery, but the differences are critical:

❌ It is Experimental: SASI is NOT endorsed as an approved primary procedure by the ASMBS or IFSO.

⚠️ Severe Bile Reflux: Connecting the stomach directly to the ileum destroys your natural anti-reflux barrier. Studies show severe bile reflux jumps to over 62% post-surgery.

🔪 High Revision Rates: Up to 13% of SASI patients end up needing a second, complex revision surgery just to fix the damage.

A procedure shouldn't be chosen just because it saves the surgeon 15 minutes in the operating room. Don't let your body be a testing ground!
Choose safety, hard clinical data, and proven results. Ready to start your safe weight loss journey?
