What is the Emmanuelle/Jerusalem clinic like?

Would you please tell me your surgery date? I'd like to know when yours was in comparison to mine. I'm wondering if staff changes have taken place since you were there.

Thanks!

I hate to hear of anyone having to go through that.

Thanks for your post. It's important for people to post about their experiences so we get a clear picture. I'm going for a sleeve with Dr. Almanza, hoepefully in july (trying to get finacing). I am feeling confident but I think now I will take a friend. I am from colorado and I imagine it will be ungodly hot.... does anyone know how well the AC works?

Thanks

My experience was totally opposite from Jrz. I have nothing to complain about. Interesting that they never wrote back and answered any questions. I traveled alone and was glad that I did. I think my husband would have gotten bored since I slept alot : ) The staff seemed to be cleaning all of the time and they fixed wonderful smelling meals for the guests. The first two days in the clinic, Dr. B took one husband out to eat in a nearby restaurant. The hubby said it was great!

I can't comment on the AC. My body temperature was all over the place so I was glad that I had brought a heating pad with me. It was relaxing even if I wasn't cold. There was also a ceiling fan in the room that we kept on low most of the time. I shared a room at the clinic and at the recovery house with bkind : ) We had the window open for awhile also and then closed it when it rained cause it was kinda chilly.

Good luck getting your surgery scheduled and paid for! I am so very happy that I did it

One of the recovery house nurses was new when I was there in mid-February. She didn't speak alot of English but there was usually someone there to translate. She went over to the other recovery house to ask that nurse when I had a question about something. I also printed out common medical terms in Spanish to take with me. Don't think I ever used it tho. I can count to ten in Spanish and that actually came in handy once! LOL I travel alot tho internationally and am used to using sign language to communicate : )

I would definitely go there again and may if I need any cosmetic surgery after losing weight. A lady had sleeve surgery and a mini face lift while I was there and she looked amazing!
