Gettingtohappy, hi how did your gastric sleeve
Surgery go? Was there a long wait at the border on the way to the airport for your return flight home? Did you feel overwhelmed or taken
Care of?

Yes, I used Alma! I was sleeved by Dr. Garcia last weekend. Alma took care of everything and is still answering any questions that I have. She sends them straight to them and then forwards his answer back to me instantly! I was very impressed by their staff!

I was sleeved on Monday 11/14 by Dr. Garcia at Mi Doctor Hospital. This man is WONDERFUL! Dr Garcia, his GI specialist, his internist, surgical team, and nurses are a wonderful team! They are very caring, you will not have a question left unanswered. He is not well known and does not advertise...so...I'm going to put this man on the map! (He is well known in Mexico, but not yet in the USA) He needs his success stories to advertise for him! He has never had a leak, nor lost a patient. He is very professional and caring. Two nights in an actual hospital with 24 hour nursing staff is ideal! I never once had to call for a nurse, they checked on me ALL the time!
I was originally going to use Almanza, but so many things made me uncomfortable...my boyfriends cousin is an orthopedic surgeon in Tj and when my bf asked him about Almanza he said he didnt know him, but his friend does bariatric surgery...he gave us the email and phone number to him and we immediately connected.
His team is very through with their pre-op testing and questions and their post-op leak tests...the two things I will not rave about are the two NASTY liquids you have to drink for the leak tests...the blue dye was worst than the X-ray contrast!
I could have stayed in a hotel the 3rd night but chose to go home (I'm about 2 hours from the border.) Dr. Garcia and his GI specialist checked in on me everyday and would have come to the hotel if I had stayed also.
Please message me for any questions...I could go on and on...and I'm definitely not an english major!
