Mi Doctor – call hospital before surgery
Did anyone having or had surgery at Mi Doctor Hospital in Tijuana call the hospital before to be sure you are on their schedule for surgery? Or did you just trust and everything worked out? My surgery is coming up quickly and just wondered if I should call ahead?

Pre-op Testing at Hospital Mi Doctor
Thank you for getting back with me...I do appreciate it! Maybe with the "slower" weight lose you will not need the gallbladder surgery. Was watching "my 600 pound life" this week and the doctor had to rush his patient in (Christina was on this weeks’ episode) to conduct an emergency removal of her gallbladder - it was pretty serious.

whos on pre op diet now?
I just started my pre-op today (surgery is the 11th). I'm doing good so far - I'm sure tomorrow and Sunday will be most difficult. I plan to get in as much sleep as possible over the weekend so I'm not a grumpy person to my wonderful family. Plus don't want to watch much TV as every other commercial is about food!!!
