Dr. Gabrielle Torres
Physician listed at Bariatric Surgery 4 Health
Dr. Gabrielle Torres is listed among the doctors at Bariatric Surgery 4 Health in Tijuana, Mexico. The center’s listing gives its address as Juan Ruíz de Alarcón 1572, Zona Urbana Río Tijuana, and identifies gastric sleeve surgery as its listed procedure. The available information does not describe Dr. Torres’s individual role in providing that procedure or give details about her training, qualifications, experience, or languages. The practice profile describes Samaritan Medical Group as an association of medical professionals in Tijuana, but it does not provide biographical details specific to Dr. Torres.
Dr. Laura Martinez
Bariatric Surgeon
The available information identifies Dr. Laura Martinez with Bariatric Surgery 4 Health in Tijuana, Mexico. The practice material discusses gastric sleeve surgery and care for patients traveling from the United States and Canada, but it does not describe Dr. Martinez’s individual role, education, credentials, experience, or clinical focus. Search results include a Laura Martinez in Tijuana associated with CeMar Surgery, where she is identified as an anesthesiologist; that listing does not match the practice named here and is not used to establish facts about this doctor. Further doctor-specific details could not be confirmed from the available sources.
Biographies are compiled from the practice website, directory profiles and other public sources. Verify board certification with the Consejo Mexicano de Cirugía General.

Patient★★★★★★★★★★Aug 2025
I’m considering going back to Tijuana for my next procedure. That’s actually where I had my gastric sleeve done with Dr. Zavalza through GoLite Bariatrics. My sleeve process was incredibly easy—the team was professional, attentive, and made everything smooth. While I was there, Dr. Zavalza even recommended a plastic surgeon to me, and I had a consultation during my trip. I’d definitely suggest getting in touch with them if you’re considering the same route.
