Just Another Confirmation Dr.garcia Is The Right Choice For Me :)



Recommended Posts

The package provided by the doctor covers the gatorade and all the goodies that you get after surgery. that does not come from the coordinator....you should get that no matter what company you use.

Although the coordinator may be the one that gets you the extras that you request..

I used A Lighter Me an Dr Garcia, both were fantastic. The people at A Ltr Me took very good care of me. It was easy to schedule and I paid $4700. I'm 4 weeks postop, down 21 pounds since start of preop diet, feeling great. Trying to increase my calories, if you can imagine!

I scheduled with Dr. Garcia through Ready 4a Change. My sister in law had him as her surgeon in July and could not raving about how good not only he was but also Alma, Samuel, and his assistants. My insurance would not pay and so I was left with a self pay option and could not afford the $10,000+ I was repeatedly quoted in the US. I also got the $4700 price from Dr. Garcia which was much les than what my SIL spent with him. Were thinking its because its an off season price? I am so excited for this though and am counting down the days until October 15th!!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
