Gastric Sleeve with Dr. Louisiana Valenzuela & Dr. Ismael Cabrera

[leo39 15]

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....

Ok so an update - Dr. Cabrera is wavering on approving my surgery. I have anemia (borderline) and there are a few issues, all minor, that I've had in other surgeries but I now have it all sorted and its good, I have had two surgeries (unrelated to this) that went textbook and i recovered great. BUT it has him concerned and he wants a doctors letter. Now also there was the suggestion that maybe I should think of Dr. Kelly who has more experience (and more $)

I am really asking for your help. Do you think Drs Cabrera and Louisana can handle a surgery that may be somewhat more challenging like dealing with scar tissue and adhesions ...how competent would you think they are? I'm wavering now. I really need guidance here. Thanks for sharing your experiences and I hope to see some on you in March. Wishing us all a safe experience. I'm open to all your advice!!

If he is asking for a doctors note, maybe he may feel so, well wishes

Sure will. It's very dark here arriving at 4 & checking in. No street lights like in most tourist areas. Casino is close but never walking there. Tucking into bed for 6:45 stroll to Mi Doctor. I'll be online to keep you posted.

Isn't the marriot so nice, I was sleeved 5 days ago and had a wonderful experience with them, I hope you have the same.

There is a blonde nurse with braces that I nicknamed nurse bossy, if you see her tell her the lady that named her nurse bossy said hi. She was so funny

I see her. I think Samantha is her name. She speaks better English than the rest..... I'll tell her for sure! I'm waiting my turn for surgery. I'm 2nd & that's it for today. It's kinda cold in room. No pillow or blanket are offered. But I requested it...
