Kristen125 18 Posted May 9, 2013 I have just returned to the hotel after two nights at Mi Doctor. Dr. Lopez performed my surgery and the entire staff at Mi Doctor is pleasant, helpful and willing to answer any questions. When I first awoke from surgery, I wasn't prepared for the way I felt. I won't lie, it was painful. But, they do give you meds as soon as you ask for them, so no worries. Good luck! 2 Kimd and lonestarstategal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kimd 7 Posted May 17, 2013 Good luck! Experience was ok. I had researched it as much as my sis did so i did not know what to expect. Dr. Lopez was supposed to our surgery, however, we both feel like his associate, Dr. Ortiz did it. Our names on the board in the hall said dr. Ortiz, and he did all the follow ups. Dr. Lopez only came in right before surgery and introduced himself. She and I both had a hiatal hernia, so, that had a little added discomfort. I had very bad nausea but she didn't! She did wonderful! I kept asking for something for it and they kept giving me something for acid??? Language barrier??? But I am home, doing well, and so far, no regrets! Again, good luck.
