  1. AR1- how is everything going?
  2. I am scheduled with him in PVR on May 17. Good Luck next week. In so excited for you and can't wait until my day finally comes. Please post your experience here. I've reached him for awhile but there us not a whole lot. But so far I like what I hear. I'm thinking the price is the major reason for his low fan base. He is higher than most.
  3. That's Breakfast. My computer auto corrected that. Sorry peeps.
  4. Add a little honey or agave nectar. A Tb or so. It takes some getting use to. I eat it for best fast now itch a apple. I not having surgery until may......but it keeps me from missing mcDonalds in the morning..... And that's pretty major. :-)
  5. Dr. Jose Castaneda in PVR. Super Excited. Are you having surgery in May?
  6. Glad you hear something positive finally. I'm going to Premiere Hospital and staying at the Marriott CasaMagna. I check in on May 16th. My best friend Kahla is coming with me. She's a recovery/ICU nurse who needs a vacation. So I'm hoping for a great experience, a little TLC and for her to be able to unwind. So far, he has been prompt when I email them with questions. We shall see. How ate you all doing? Still waiting on date? Post surgery?
  7. Good luck Kristyh! I can't wait to hear your story even you get back. Airport, hotel, etc. if you are up to it.
  8. I have. My doctor here in New Orleans Suggested Dr. Castaneda if i was "hell bent" on going to Mexico. He is higher then most that I have seen but I figured I would also use PVR as a mini Vacation as well. Just having trouble finding a lot about him on blogs. A couple of medical journals and YouTube videos but that's about it. I'm guessing he doesn't advertise much. Thanks for the suggestion. Who did your surgery?
  9. Congrats! That's major news! Soooo happy for you!
  10. Good Morning World. My surgery date is set for May 17, 2013 (saving more money to self pay), 7,000.) Has Anyone here been to PVR for surgery with Dr. Castaneda?
