Dr. Fernando Garcia

[JoJo57 63]

I'm just now figuring out how this works. I thought to have Dr. Garcia I had to go with Ready 4 Change. Not true, it turns out.

 

These "middle men" coordinators seem to do big business.

How do I see dr Garcia with out using a Cordinator?

[coolmamma73 129]

yes I would like to know that too, and if not using a coordinator what is his cost and how do you get picked up/transfered back and forth?

 

Thanks!!

What about Ready 4 a Change ( Alma ) what how what your experience with them?

 

Alma is AMAZING and very nice!!! I contacted Ready4Achange and she was the one I spoke with. She was very attentive and understanding and answered all my questions. We talked about the different options, locations, and doctors and we together decided Dr. Garcia in Tijana, MX was the best fit for me.

 

I was sleeved on Oct. 30th with Dr. Garcia and I would highly reccomend him!!! The care coordinators that looked after me were Rosie and Melissa... Alma was not in Tijuana during my stay but Rosie and Melissa were wonderful!!!! The Dr.'s staff were very pleasant and always put my needs first. A couple of the staff there had the sleeve as well and so it was very nice to be able to talk to someone first hand that had gone through with it.

 

If you choose Dr. Garcia, you won't be dissapointed!

I definitely would encourage going through the coordinators... they help handle everything and all the reservations, drivers, etc. They are like your personal assistants and will help you with whatever you may need. Having a driver pick us up at the airport and take us across the boarder was so stress free.. I couldn't imagine going through all this on my own.

Only one doc I've heard of doesn't use coordinators, by he is not cheaper in price. He just keeps more of the pie.

I am here in Mexico as I type, tomorrow is my surgery with Dr.Garcia and I have gone through Ready4A Change and thus far have no complaints just praises. My experience has been great all of my questions were always answered by Alma in a timely manner and I just always felt great with my decision. Samuel picked me up with no problems and right on time, he is a very very nice gentleman. 1 of the Coordinators Rosie just stopped by to let me know about my surgery tomorrow and how to order my broth and Water for today if I wanted it.

Just so excited and I will definitly post my experience on the boards after all is said and done! See everyone on the losers bench!! YAY!!!

What the coordinators do for you is ......making the hotel reservations, you get visits to the hotel from Rosie if u go with reqdy4achange to answer your questions and or support you, you get hotel onsite support (Melissa), driver, courtesy broth, water,popsicles at the hotel, a goodie bag with essential items and medicine once you are discharged from the hospital. I would highly recomend you using the coodinators, since you are in a different country and specially if you don't speak Spanish everything is taken care with their fee. The coordinators just simplify everything for you that way you can just worry about your recovery.
