    Hello I have never posted on here because of the negative responses. But I just had to pop in and set some things straight. Gettinsleeved is in NO WAY a coordinator I was in Mexico at the same time having surgery, I was there in the Hospital at the same time. We went shopping together with her sis and a few other patients. I had a great experience with Janesse and the whole experience from being picked up at the airport by Abraham going to the hospital, the Doctors, and the Hotel it was all a very good experience. To answer the comments about the drain issues: I had a Tummy Tuck 10 years ago after losing 100 pounds on my own. I had the surgery in the states. Self pay over 15,000.00 I had the surgery at 9:00 in the morning and by 2:00 in the afternoon was sent home with 2 drains I had those drains in for almost 2 weeks, that would have been one long hospital stay if I had to be in the hospital for that reason. The Dr never called to check on me he never visited my home. i had to call the Dr when i passed out from the anesthetic I had to wait for him to call me back. I also had to clean and bandage my incision for the month following. This was in the states. My experience in Mexico was far more caring than what I experienced during my tummy tuck. I also had a drain with my gallbladder surgery that was not done by laparoscopically and again went home with a drain. Don't think that if you have a drain that it is only something they do in Mexico. They do leak and you do have to care for them they are a nuisance but it is just temporary. They have a purpose. They know what they are doing down there. If this patient had any of the symptoms of infection or any thing that was not the norm they would have been all over it. The leakage is normal they see it all the time. Don't let one person with a comment that she didn't get the response as quickly as she wanted keep you from having this surgery here in the states or in Mexico. When I read the first post I was sad because I saw right away people second guessing the Dr, the group and Mexico and that is sad. For every one negative comment there are so many more that never post the positive one, because they feel it went fine and pretty boring. She even said she didn't have a problem with the Dr or the hospital.

    That is great news Leslie01. My experience has been a good one thus far with Janese. I have yet to meet Abraham but am looking forward to meeting him. Hopefully mine and everyone else's experience will be a great one. Things happen good and bad and cannot be good all the time. This is why we have these forums. We can tell our story. Good luck with a fast recovery and hope you have a successful weight loss and a happy beginning to a new life. Thanks for your post. This company and Janese needs people to tell about their good experiences. You made a positive impression on me. I am sure on others as well.

    This surprises me. I am here now and the experience with Janese and Abraham has been nothing short of perfect. In fact my drain was taken out after my shower today by Jessica the nurse. She then gave me gauze to change today once arrived at the Marriott. Did you not get your package to take??? All gauze and tape in there. Further dr Ortiz just left my room. He came to the hotel!!!! He was checking on all his patients to day. I would recommend lighter me. I have heard horror stories from OCC and meet 5 people with their drains still in today. They go back tmr to get them out! Of course each person has a different story. Count on me to giving a glowing reference. Far exceeded my thoughts.

    Omg this is now the second time I've heard of nakedness! I had mine done this last Tuesday, also by Dr. Garcia and one of my sleeve buddies was telling me she saw someone naked! I thought maybe this was a rare occurrence, but maybe not. Well, whoever saw my fat, naked ass --- SORRY!
