I Have To Brag About My Dr. Garcia
andkel30 replied to momofthree's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Yes he knows his stuff Im 8 days post op and I feel good to..... never was in any pain or discomfort. I emailed Dr. Garcia and he email me back quickly as well. He said before I left if you have any question dont hesitate to call or email. I will get back with you and that he does. He is a good Dr and deserves his props....... I glad you made this thread. My friend that came with me she was so impressed with the service that she says she is going to have it done as well... there were four people that had surgery on my date and we all were walking and having a good time like we hadnt had surgery it was unbelieveable for me because I was being a big baby .....woke up in recovery asking did I have the surgery....because I had no feelings of soreness pain anything had one instance of nausea and they fixed that quick....the nurses was happy to help you. always checking on ya... just all around good people. Rosie and Melisa came to the hotel to check on us even brought me a gift said I was a good patient some lotion from bath and bodyworks.....they were so sweet called checked on me and everything I could go on and on but I think my picture has been drawn.....Good luck on weight loss Ive lost 11.4 pounds -
Has Anyone Gone To Mexico To Be Sleeved?
andkel30 replied to sarah nelson's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
hello I was right behind shoelover she actually calmed me when I seen how good she was doing needless to say I had surgery it was a breeze no pain no complications nothing had nausea one time they quickly fixed that I was feeling like I hadnt even had surgery i had to look at my stomach to make sure it was done...The nurses was very attentive...always checking on me. stayed at the marroitt which was very nice the room was so peaceful and clean all in all Dr Fernando Garcia Govea gets an A+ in my book some say he's new......but he knew his stuff and i had a painless surgery...he even took a picture of my stomach that was removed because my friend was scared to. I am glad I choose him.... I am 8 days post surgery and have had no issues....Good Luck.....as for Tijuana I felt totally safe I even walked to store after my surgery its a pretty place. nothing like I expected given what you hear about mexico -
