LG1981 111 Posted January 23, 2013 Hi all! I am scheduled for surgery on Feb. 5. I am having the surgery here in my native DR. Even though we are a 3rd world country, I am having my procedure done with the best of the best, and am totally confident in my doctor. I think this is the kind of procedure that you dont look for deals with. The only thing that kind of scares me is the drainage tube they leave in after surgery. YIKES. I hope to be of support to all of you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zazous 14 Posted January 24, 2013 Hey. Welcome. I considered going to the DR for my surgery. Who's your doctor over there? I was going with Dr. Dominguez in Hospiten, but ultimately ended up getting the procedure in the States. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zazous 14 Posted January 25, 2013 Oh, he really is the best! You are in excellent hands. I have family in the DR (which is why I was thinking of having surgery there) and they know quite a few people who had the sleeve done by him. All good experiences.

LG1981 111 Posted January 26, 2013 I am very confident in him. I also have a few friends that have gotten sleeved by him and all have positive feedback. How has your expirience with your sleeve been? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zazous 14 Posted January 27, 2013 No problems for me as far as the procedure or recovery. No nausea, vomiting, pain. My biggest issue has been dealing with head hunger and staying away from junk food since I am able to tolerate anything I eat. It's a process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
