Free Educational Seminar on Bariatric Surgery with Dr. Alejandro Gutierrez

We warmly invite you to attend an upcoming educational seminar on international bariatric surgery options — featuring world-renowned bariatric surgeon Dr. Alejandro Gutierrez from Mexico Bariatric Center (MBC).

This free session is designed specifically for New Zealand patients, GPs and healthcare professionals interested in learning about safe, effective, and accessible weight-loss surgery options for patients — especially those who may not meet the public system criteria or cannot afford private surgery in New Zealand.

We extend a very warm welcome to individuals who are considering bariatric surgery themselves and would like to better understand the process, ask questions directly, and feel reassured before making an informed decision.

This is a rare opportunity to connect with the surgical and support team in person, ask clinical questions, and hear first-hand success stories.

Hosted by Mexico Bariatric Center (MBC)

Presented by:
Dr. Alejandro Gutierrez, MD, FACS – Board-certified Bariatric Surgeon
Dr. Ron Elli – Founder & CEO, Mexico Bariatric Center
Vanessa Taylor – NZ Patient Coordinator & Former MBC Patient

Whether you're a healthcare provider supporting patients, or someone personally exploring bariatric surgery abroad, we’d love to see you there.
