  1. Dr. Garcia did my surgery on 11-08-12 and I am down about 20 lbs. I am a few pounds away from onederland (just for frame of reference of where I started). Harmoni

    November Vs Mexico Date Roll

    I am 9 days post op. Still feeling well - just sore -so that things like laughing, coughing or sneezing hurt. Haven't taken any pain meds since being in the hosp.

    Dr. Garcia did my sleeve 1 week ago today. AMAZING experience. No issues - would do it again in a heartbeat. Harmoni
  4. Wow! I have to chime in.... One week ago today, Dr. Garcia did my surgery. His staff was top notch. He was beyond excellent. The coordinating company I chose was Ready 4 a Change. My roommate @ the hospital had A Lighter Me. We had very different service - she said that my care was much better. I had multiple docs checking on me (all part of Dr. Garcia's team) & my coordinator was more organized, prepared & attentive. I know how confusing it is deciding, if anyone wants to chat, I'd be happy to provide my contact info & share my personal experience. Shame on the people who are spreading lies about Dr. Garcia!!

    Real Reviews?

    I am real too - but haven't figured out how to post pics etc. . I am in MC right now recovering in the hotel with a few other people from these forums. Feel free to PM me & I'll be happy to share anything you want to know. Harmoni

    Dr. Fernando Garcia

    I am another Dr. Garcia patient who used Ready 4 A Change. Had surgery on 11-08-12 and everyone had been amazing. I came alone and have been soooo grateful to Melissa (ready 4 a change hospital coordinator) who was a huge support, Rosie for her assistance settling into the hotel & Samuel the driver. All have gone up and beyond the call of duty. Harmoni
  7. Hey ShirtLady! Is your surgery happening at Mi Doctor too? If so, hope we cross paths! I would post a pic here, but I have no idea how - if u have Facebook, look me up: Harmoni Clealand

    November Vs Mexico Date Roll

    There are a couple of November surgeries that should have already occurred - did they check in yet & I missed the post? Harmoni
  9. Mine is on the 8th too - with Dr. Garcia. I am going alone. Have any of you packed yet? I am a last second packer, so won't do it until the day before. Need to head out and get a few more things - Gas X, PJ's (my usual PJs are not appropriate) & clear Protein. Harmoni
  10. Hello everyone! I am less than a week away from my surgery date and I can't shake one lingering worry about the Water. I know they give bottled water for us to drink while there....but what I don't get is: won't taking a shower allow our incisions to be open & exposed to the germs (bacteria?) in the water to creep in?? Can someone explain?? Thanks! Harmoni

    November Vs Mexico Date Roll

    I am going Nov 8-12 with Dr Garcia. Excited, but a little worries too. Probably normal. Harmoni
  12. Greetings! I would like to know from Dr. Kelly patients what time your return flight was scheduled for and if you had any issues crossing back into the US. I would imagine that there must be a rush hour for crossing the boarder... Thank you for your input! Harmoni
  13. I would love to go on Aug 29... still working out the $$ and childcare details tho.
