Dr. Quinones opinions wanted

[amychar 5]

Hello! I just joined this site a while ago after stalking for two days! I'm looking at going with Dr. Quinones for the gastric sleeve but was wondering if people had any opinions about him. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated-this is a terrifying yet exciting possibility!

I used Dr. Q. No regrets.

I had surgery with Dr. Q 2/20/2014. I went with two friends, one was a lap band to sleeve conversion. We all have had little to no problems. I did not feel good and was kept at clinic an extra night, I could not get rid of gas pains. They kept me to make sure I was hydrated and on extra pain meds. My friend with the conversion was a little nauseous. The extra night I spent at clinic the girls (2post op and 2 caregivers) left the hotel and walked and shopped!!!! Crazy bitches! Anyway, I felt well looked after and feel like this was the best decision I ever made for my health! I do not hesitate to refer you to Dr. Q!!!

@@BlondeBanshee Thanks so much for your response. It helps so much to hear about people's positive experiences! Did you get charged more for staying an extra night? Anything you wish you had done differently?

I saw Dr Q back in May 2013. I have lost 110 pounds and still losing. I went alone so I was really scared but as soon as I met Dr Q and his staff I was completely at ease. They were so warm and caring. Before I chose him I had taken a list of 4 surgeons to my regular Dr and asked her to do some research and she told me that Dr Q was the best from my list and that he was highly educated in gastric surgeries. I highly recommend him.

If you have any questions please feel free to PM me
