Dr. Aceves - departure/arrival dates; info

Hey guys, I am starting to look at booking my flight and I'm having trouble with getting my e-mails answered by them, so I decided to just consult other Aceves sleevers. First off, can someone clarify the day/time I will be arriving and leaving? My surgery's on the 9th of August, so I understand I need to arrive on the 8th to get the labwork done, but how early? The earliest arrival time for San Diego that I can find from my city is 11:10 am. Am I going to have to fly in on the 7th and spend the night at the hotel?

Also, along the same lines, what day and what time should I schedule my returning flight, if my surgery's on the 9th? Would that be the 12th? Do they want you to leave in the morning or evening?

Last but not least, the only e-mail I've got from them so far was a list of what to bring to the hospital. Would someone be so kind as to send me the rest? Please post here if you can, and I'll PM you my e-mail address.

Thanks!

Well said 1MP4LIFE! I was wondering how the politics of illegals related to VSG surgery. I come here for information on surgery and peoples progress. I do not appreciate people who rant about miss information that has nothing to do with the actual surgery.

i was so bored in my hospital room that I took long walks every day in my bathrobe. I walked for blocks all around the hospital. There was no time what so ever that I felt unsafe. I spent the entire day walking around the neighborhoods around the hospital.
