Dr Garcia Tijuana Patient Stats?

[JohnnyMadison 15]

I personally like having a coordinator in terms of being able to answer questions, etc. That's just too valuable for me. They also schedule your rides and all of that.

There are many good surgeons in TJ. Dealing with co-ordinators and great prices is best but please make sure you advocate for yourself and don't let the price make you think you should expect less. Make sure surgeon has general surgeon licence, laparoscopic licence and bariatric surgeon licence. Ask many questions and be educated. If your gut feels good then go with it.

The DR. is great, the coordinators through a lighter me are unorganized...

I'm one week post op with Dr Garcia and Ready 4a change and wouldn't change a thing!! Too quality service was provided and I'm "one of those people" who can be highly critical of doctors and hospitals. I was pleased and would recommended them to anyone.

Ha I just got an email from a patient who went with lighter me and dr Garcia and it was her worst nightmare. Poor thing. I will ask her to share with you first hand if she wants to

What happened with alighterme? I'd like to hear the experience...

[freespirit63 112]

Similar stuff that happened with my friend. Inappropriate care

My experience with a lighter me and dr Garcia was fantastic, that was 8/31.

Ha?!?!

Really?!?!

Wow. It staggers the mind at your apparent malicious glee over a patient who supposedly had a bad experience with ALM and Dr. Garcia. Any credibility your supposed experience had is shattered IMO by your attitude and your implied satisfaction at reporting "another" bad experience. Which is a shame because this forum is designed to support, share, and inform people who are in the midst of making a life changing decision... Surgery... And out of their comfort zone... Home. I'm not sure of your motives. Gossip? Sabotage? Feeling vindicated that you're "right" about ALM? It doesn't even matter now. Awful that an opportunity to share experiences is turned into at best, gloating and at worst, lies and sabotage.

This forum is about info sharing and that is all I am doing. Take it as you like.

Yeah. Right.

Posting in such flippant and malicious way on thread titled fatalities... Insensitive.

And btw, a "worst nightmare" is not my transportation stopping McD's on the way to the Border. It's dying. Complications. Leaks. Infection. Not being here for my family.

Sorry to all for rant but that really just got me upset.

I would like to hear her story. You have to take the bad with the good. Thanks

[freespirit63 112]

As I said, it's not the doctor because I hear everyone has success, its the place and care. I can't speak for her.
