Hello Everyone, I am having VSG surgery but not until November with Dr. Fernando Garcia in Tijuana Mexico. Can anyone offer any feedback both positive, and negative about your experience with Dr. Garcia? My biggest fear is blood clots and leaks!

There was a lady who posted on another topic about having her surgery in Tijuana with a Dr. Garcia. She had an infection of her incisions and was going through a pretty bad time of it. Her doctor won't reply to her emails. She felt that she didn't receive good aftercare. I wish I could find which thread she was posting on, but I can't find it. Please be careful!

You should go over to the self pay Mexico board, there are plenty of people over there who have went to Dr. Garcia. I am getting sleeved there on Saturday :)

I kept trying to find that thread, but it still eludes me. I checked out the Mexico board, and there are tons of people who are thrilled with Dr. Fernando Garcia.

I don't know if the lady I read about had her surgery by the same guy....I only know that his last name was Garcia and he was in Tijuana. She had gone there alone, and had some concerns about her incisions before she left, but couldn't get anyone from the hospital to come check on them in the hotel.

I finally found the posting. It was by a poster called Kat1, and was in the "Where are the 50s???" (

Her story starts on page 22. I don't think it was until page 24 or 25 when she mentions Dr. Garcia, but I can't see that she ever mentioned a first name.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
