Erosion or NOT??

DeLarla,

I can't tell you the number of times your posts have made me laugh. And true to your past you have me laughing again.

I agree with you that the squeak wheel gets the oil. There isn't anyway I would take this bending over...ooops, I mean sitting down.

Fair is fair. No matter what country we are in. I think Christy is really getting shafted on this one.

Keep in mind, I was banded by Dr. Jose Rodriguez in Acuna, Mexico and have been pleased, but of course I haven't had any sort of complications. My experience overall was very pleasant, thanks in part to a wonderful patient coordinator. While Dr. Rodriguez performed the procedure, I only saw him for a few minutes. His patient coordinator, Diana Bradshaw, is who I remember the most. AT any rate, I havent' had any complications so of course I wouldn't have any complaints. But this thing happening to Christy is bad..bad...bad.

Ok all i have an update!!!!! Dr Rodz has agreed to reband me! I will get back with you all with the dates.

Everyone around me is worried about it and to be honest so am I BUT i cannot afford to do it here in the USA and he wants to make it right so i feel i should give him that chance.

All surgeons have some error % i just happen to be part of his. LOL

So keep your fingers crossed and thanks for all your help!

Christy

Christy,

What got him to change his mind? Did you start to 'squeak'?

It's time we stopped making excuses for such things and defending doctors when they screw up. They may be wonderful people, but as surgeons they have a responsibility to perform each surgery with care and skill.

Do not let this guy take your money, you hopes, your future and push you out the door saying this is a fluke. Stand up for yourself and dont worry about hurting his feelings or the confrontation. Trust me, you have a huge community of bandsters here who know how to make waves. If this guy doesn't do right by you, he knows he will be talked about around the world!

Woohoo! I was thrilled to read that a thousand whispers can indeed make a very loud noise! Now while I'm very happy to hear that the Dr. is willing to reband you, I also hope he realizes that all of us here will be watching our little Christy and if he screws up again.. well.. he knows. *grins*

Big hugs to ya Christy! I'm very happy you posted here and got the situation taken care of! Good for you!
