Dr. Fuentes is a patient , kind, well-educated man. He answered all my questions and his results were beautiful and natural. I drove 12 hours to have procedures with this doctor because he is certainly worth it. I had realistic expectations and I was impressed and pleased with my surgical outcomes. The location is Tijuana, MX.

Dr. Fuentes was straight business- we had a brief meeting regarding my desirable outcome. He asked many questions and listened to me & my concerns. Dr Fuentes was very clear on what was a realistic outcome. This is exactly the kind of Doctor I would want to have to fix what I felt was broken on my body.

I had my nose done almost ten years ago, and I couldn't be more pleased! Everyday since then, I feel like it was one of the best investments I had ever made in terms of my appearance. After shopping around for surgeons in the Tijuana area, he was no doubt the one when he went above and beyond with his responses to my questions via email. He actually took the time to be very thorough whereas other doctors seemed like they didn't want to bother. I would definitely go to him again if I ever needed anything else.

I had a tummy tuck and liposuction and am very happy with the results to date.
My emails were answered promptly and there was no surprise fees or charges. The quote given was exactly what I paid.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Fuentes for any plastic/cosmetic procedure one would desire to have.

He is the nicest, mild mannered person you will meet. He does not try to influence you to have more surgery than necessary.

My experience with Dr. Fuentes has been all-around wonderful! He and his staff are complete professionals! I felt nothing but comfortable and cared for. He has always taken the time to return all my emails promptly, and answer all of my questions honestly. I give Dr. Fuentes my highest recommendation.

I would gladly recommend Dr. Fuentes. Obviously a very skilled plastic surgeon that is supported by wonderful staff. I'm thinking about more procedures in the future and will be coming back here. The Recovery Boutique offers some spa services such as massage and mani and pedi cure. Let yourself truly be indulged.

Non existant. Saw dr in recovery and he left town and I laid in bed and vomited for four days. Wrote later and asked for refund and gave another doctor's report for fixing and only response was come back so we can see and fix it.

Dr. Fuentes is such a sweet doctor. During my first consultation he addressed all my questions and concerns and made sure I was realistic with my expectations. My bruising after surgery was minimal considering my nose was fractured and I didn't even have to take my pain meds. He is a true artist and hands down the best rhinoplasty doctor in TJ!

Dr. Carlos Fuentes is a great doctor. He is an artist in his profession. My breast lift/augmentation looks amazing.

Dr. Fuentes is a very kind soft spoken man. He has a fantastic bedside manner and didn't try to push me for other surgeries although I requested them he did say I didn't need them. The staff at the recovery boutique are also very kind and professional. If you stay at the facility you will feel babied :) Now as far as his surgical skills.. I cant say..he kept me alive and no infections but not happy with anything he's done so far.
