Guest LOSINANDHAPPY Posted June 16, 2005 I am sorry to hear that you had a bad experience however, I am one of many Dr. De La Garza fans if it were not for him I would still be miserable in my own skin and I owe it all to Dr. De La Garza. He not only was very concerned with my welfare after surgery but when I was stranded in Mexico after losing my birth certificate he did everything he could possibly do to help. I find that it has taken this person so long to tell his story kind of suspect. If he in fact had this experience I would challenge him to find a Dr. here or anywhere that doesn't have some kind of complaint about them. I think it doesnt matter how much rsearch you do on a Dr. there is always a risk having any surgery done. I would let Dr. De La Garza do my surgery again and again.

judycay 0 Posted March 11, 2007 Dr. Sanchez died on December 2nd so he isnt capable of doing your surgery. I worked with Dr. Sanchez for 3 years and he was never associated with Dr. Javier De La Garza. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robin 0 Posted March 18, 2007 I am so sorry to hear of your complete and total bad situation. I live in Oklahoma and there is a dr here still performing surgery and has done many of the same types of things. He is no longer allowed to practice at a couple hospitals. But...how do you get the word out? I have told so many people and even pre ops but if they have found their "hope", love is blind. I know these things because one of my best friends is an ICU nurse. Believe me, if you ever want the inside scoop on a dr, get to the nurses. They see the inside. Now for Mexico, JMO of course, I loved it!!! I will never have elective surgery in the US again. NEVER... I went to Dr. Ortiz and have not one thing negative to say. The quality of care and depth of accuracy was unbelievable. I have never had such care in a US hospital. Now I'm not speaking of being ill, just elective...WLS, boobs, face lift, plastics, those sorts of surgeries. The price too was unbeatable. The lowest I found in this area was 18500 for the lapband, and Dr. Ortiz was 8500. Huge difference. But I must say, post op, if the prices were reversed I would still go to Mexico. The over all experience was so above average. I researched this for five years and I think that made a huge difference too. Happy days and sweet dreams all...may we all be the "thin" person we are on the inside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lap_dancer 8 Posted March 18, 2007 I'm all for leaving this post up. The good needs to be read with the bad and then people left to make up their own minds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
