I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Lopez, Dr. Ortiz, Abraham, and Eduardo! Dr. Ortiz came to my room, took care of my drain, told me how to take care if it. He was VERY professional. And everyone I encountered was so professional and treated me like I was a princess! I will NEVER regret going to Mexico or going through A Lighter Me. One persons experience doesn't put in stone how a Dr is or a coordinator. Anytime I needed one of them they were right there. I was very well taken care of.

I just wanted to come on and say that I feel incredibly blessed to have such a great support system throughout this process. Tomorrow I start my medical leave and get sleeved early tomorrow morning. I've been on a 2 week liquid diet and my colleagues decided to have a surprise Protein shake lunch with me! I feel extremely blessed and wish this kind of support for WLS was shown everywhere!

Good Afternoon,
I had surgery at the OCC, with Dr. Ortiz on Feb 19, 2015! I originally started out having plictation, but decided that there was not enough research for me (my personal opinion). So I opted for the sleeve. It was one of the best experiences - Dr. O, Lucia and all the nurses and doctors that you will meet will be absolutely wonderful. The only problem I had was finding a doc who would see me in the US. But, I found one she is wonderful and very impressed with my experience and Dr. O's work. From arriving at the airport to the ride to and through the boarder it was a wonderful experience. From van drive to motel staff. I have no complaints or issues to speak about. I am 100 lbs lighter and feel and look great (my personal opinion :-)
If you have a fear once you arrive talk to the doc - he will come into your room before you head into surgery and talk to you - he spent a fair amount a time with me as I grilled him about his credentials and his staff ( I actually paid to have a background check on the good ole' doc). He has a great sense of humor and was impressed with all the research I conducted before taking the plunge. Any questions please drop me a line I will answer any questions I can. I have pictures of me and doc and Lucia (the nut) before surgery if you are interested!

Good luck and trust me you will be fine!! I even made some friends while having surgery and we continue to talk and compare experiences and success stories :-)

I did. PCOS SUCKS! I got pregnant naturally before surgery. Had surgery 6 weeks after delivering baby. I got approval to start TTC at 12 months out. I was training for my first half marathon and now my 2nd so we will start in January.
