  16. Hello I am a Register Nurse (17 years Dialysis RN) I want to share my pre op experience so far, I filled a form through Bariatric Pal to get information regarding the surgery and process, I was interested in Dr. Carlos Alatamirano Cano, in less than an hour, Dr. A wrote back and asked if I want to skype or face time so we can talk about the process ( at that point I haven't give any $ or said I would do anything) he spent like an hour with me and was very professional and knowledgable. I booked my surgery with him 2 days after our conversation, after that we exchanged a few emails and FaceTime also, I feel very confident that the care I will get there is going to be excellent, so confident that I am going by my self...don't get me wrong the process is nerve wracking but, I will be nervous even if the surgery was in USA. I feel sad for those that died and their families, unfortunately we are all at risk of death when we are going for any type of surgery, even with small and simple procedures. I wish all of you getting surgery here in U.S. or MX best luck and health.
  17. Awesome! Good luck in your journey:-)
  18. I really think that I am more afraid of pre op diet than the surgery it self ????
