    Before

    From the album: Pictures

    This picture was taken 2 weeks before my surgery. I was a size 34 here.
  4. At almost 6 years out, I have lost 200 pounds. Only 50 more to go. Slow but steady wins the race for me! If you are a slow loser, take heart, it WILL happen!! Don't give up!

    Dr.Aceves Or Dr.Huacuz?

    Johnny, sweetness, the weather in Tijuana is probably the same as it is here in San Diego. I am gainfully employed on the American side of the border and not by any of the surgeons. Where did I get my numbers? I asked the doctor. It's really easy. This is how I did it. Looked on the website, got the number, dialed, asked the question, got the answer.

    I didn't say the threads were alleged I said that the source was alleged.

    "You made yourself clear. Are we suppose to take your word for it that these things you saw with your own eyes ? " A witness is a witness whether people believe them or not. "Sorry but maybe its me your last statement makes NO SENSE to me and ive sat here and read it for 5 mintues. People DO get very defensive about their docs and rightly so . however just because a statement is negative does NOT MEAN Its NOT TRUE !!! " Just because a statment is positive does not mean it is not true. "You have to understand , maybe this is something you do not know yet from being on here. There are coordinators that work for doctors that come on here and pose as fake patients, there are doctors that pose as patients and bash other doctors . So saying something like " i have seen it with my own eyes " honestly does not hold a lot of weight for someone who is fairly new to this site . " I do understand quite well and am well aware of what goes on here. I have seen these people just as you have. And I would also give new people on this site some credit for being able to reason for themselves. "That is not a dig at you im just trying to make you understand how others see it . " No problem. My view is not one sided and is not uninformed. I have my experiences and others have theirs. We will just have to agree to disagree.

    Apparently I'm not making myself clear. Someone made statements in a statitistical vein. I asked for those statistics. My positive statements are things I have witnessed with my own eyes, so they are not heresay. And someone can not get ultra negative when they hear something positive and automatically say "That's not true" because they heard of people having a bad experience with a doctor.

    I asked for statistics and first hand information, not hearsay. I did not make claims. I stated what had happened to me and what I had witnessed with my own two eyes and heard with my own two ears. Yes, I DO know how realiable Dr. Huacuz is and how he has kept his word to me and those I know who have gone to him.

    Do you have statistics to back these claims up? I relate my own experiences and those of my friends (experiences I have witnessed first hand).

    Fortunately MANY other are quite as fortunate. Besides luck has nothing to do with it.

    I am one of his MANY patients who have NEVER had a problem. Nor have any of the patients (friends and family) I have recommended to him.

    I can only relay MY experience with Dr. Huacuz. It was an continues to be great!

    I agree. Do your own research and make an intelligent choice. There will always be someone who is not happy with a doctor. There are many more then 4 people who are happy with Dr. Huacuz. I'm glad I did my OWN research and VERY happy I picked Dr. Huacuz. I am more than happy to help. Arealsweety

    Any one use Dr. Daniel Huacuz-Tijuana?

    She did'n't have to be picked up at the airport because I did that. I just made sure she was at the clinic when she was supposed to be. Surgery was uneventful (besides her family and friends calling me every few minutes). She said that she had minimal pain and when she got back to Georgia her brother helped her do some things around the house even though she could really could have taken care of them herself. She was pleasantly surprised to hear from Dr. Huacuz several times and to know he was asking about her healing. Her family and friends are so happy with her results that they are now considering getting their "wings and things" done with Dr. Huacuz. Arealsweety

    I was never nervous going to another country since Tijuana is just across the border from San Diego (home). There are creeps, idiots and weirdos in every big city, so I am just a careful there as I am in San Diego or Los Angeles or Frankfurt, Germany. When it is time for my full body lift and breast augmentation (the only part of me I wanted to keep is leaving FAST) I will go to Dr.Huacuz. Dr,. Huacuz took care of removing the "bat wings" from my friend after she lost 208# and she looks great! She lives in Georgia and after returning home she went to a wound specialist for evaluation. He said that it was the best work he had seen in a LONG time! She can't wait till tank top season. I can't wait until its my turn!

    When I am finally at goal I will be having my full body lift and breast augmentation done at his clinic. And yes, he is always prompt in his responses. A friend of mind recently had the excess skin removed from her arms after losing 208#. When she went back to Georgia a wound specialist who saw her said that was one of the best jobs he had ever seen. She is healing well and can't wait until tank top season. I look forward to my turn! My arms are what keep me from getting into the size blouse that fits he rest of my body. By the time my arms are small enough to get into the sleeves, the rest of the blouse will be way too big. Oh well....life hapens and we all have our issues. Arealsweety

    Any one use Dr. Daniel Huacuz-Tijuana?

    You too! That's great to hear! Everyone I talk to says the same thing about Dr. Huacuz. You know I seemed to be on a plateau for a while (MONTHS) and after talking to Dr. Huacuz and doing what he said, BAM! I started losing again. It's wonderful!

    Any one use Dr. Daniel Huacuz-Tijuana?

    Yes the new year will be very happy indeed! I'm glad to say that I reached one of my goals in 2007 - 100 down. "Only" 80 more to go. I'm a turtle when I comes to the weight loss and I know that I could speed it up with more exercise but things are going well and I am happy and healthy.

    Best surgeon ever

    As far as I am concerned, in my opinion he IS the best surgeon I have ever had. Then again I have only had 3 C-sections, a tonsilectomy (as an adult, not as a child) and the lap band. My results are great and I have absolutely no complaints.
  23. If any of you are being banded by Dr. Huacuz and will not have a support person with you or just want a visitor, let me know and I will come pay you a visit. I am only a short hop, skip and jump across the border in San Diego. Let me know by private mail and I will give you my contact information. Arealsweety Dr. Huacuz - Tijuana, Mexico Nov. 3, 2005 -100# "only" another 80# to go. :clap2:
