I am HOPEFULLY having surgery with Dr. Cabrera in March but I just heard from the co-ordinator that he wants more medical info on me because I have a platelet secretion defect. It's minor but I guess he's concerned. The Co-ordinator asked me if Cabrera said no did I want Dr. Kelly (who charges more apparently) which made me nervous - like, is Cabrera not able to handle minor (known) issues or unknown surprises? I have only read good things about Dr. Cabrera so this threw me. I was wavering between Dr. Cabrera and Dr. F. Garcia who also has an excellent reputation and is very kind. Up to today I would have said both sound just as safe as having surgery in your hometown. They both operate at MiDoctor Hospital which is a full service hospital reputed to be extremely clean with attentive staff.

Thank you 'male teacher' for such a detailled account because while I always had a good feeling about them after doing a ton of research, there is probably comparably less info available about them than other doctors. Now I know exactly what to expect! I'm having my sleeve done on or around March 4th, thats the tentative date, so it sounds like I may meet at least one person on this board! (cee cee ) Please as you have your experiences, please let us know as much as you can! I'm getting excited now....
