    Soonerjoseph got a reaction from Tricebhasstyle in A patient died after surgery with Dr. Elias Ortiz at A Lighter Me!   
    I truly believe people that overly attack something, such as having surgery in Mexico, must do it because they feel like they have to defend WHY they had surgery in the USA. That they're somehow better for it. Otherwise, why be so damn argumentative and loose with the facts?
    I'd stand hospital Angeles up against just about any US hospital. And let's be real here. There aren't too many people having bariatric surgery done in the USA at hospitals such as the mayo Clinic, John Hopkins, or Cedar-Sinai. Stop acting like your local/regional hospital (that 99% of surgeries are done at in the US) is the creme de la creme.

    Don't really have a dog in this fight but since I really hate lack of reading comprehension and juvenile dog-piling, notice the bold and underlined, as well as italicized part of the sentence:
    "name even 2 surgeons that have performed at least 2000 surgeries and have been performing surgeries for at least 4 years that are free of deaths and complications."
    Yeah, so name 1 surgeon that meets that criteria. Or continue with the stupid attacks, w/e floats your boat.

    Soonerjoseph reacted to Miss Mac in Nuts and such   
    I am five months out and eating nuts of all kinds. Almonds are a chore to chew, though. I am finding that even unsalted nuts are a slider food, though. They are like potato chips to me. An ounce of nuts can quickly turn in to a cup of nuts, so I freeze them now to make them a little less accessable.

    In one of the emails I was sent it says that you guys do in house financing which requires half down, with a valid driver's license and a credit card. Do you guys have that up and running?

    Hey, I read where LTVSG gives you a video of your surgery. Does anyone who has had the surgery with them want to upload it to youtube?

    Edavidson, none of my posts have been directed at you or what you've posted. I never thought you were overly criticizing of Mexico in your posts, even when, out of everyone here, you'd have more of a right to be.
    Anyway, hope you have a great day!
