Back from Mexico

I had my surgery with Dr. Almanza on 5-25-2011 and I am back home and doing great. I have had no pain and the gas has finally let up which is fantastic. The experience was great and went exactly as advertised, they could not have been more accommodating to my spouse. We had a group of five and I was the only male in the bunch. If anyone is thinking of going to Mexico and has any reservations, I would say do your research so you will know what to expect and you will not be disappointed. We had one person in our group that was surprised the clinic was in a strip shopping center, these are things you should know before you show up at their door. If anyone has any questions, feel free to PM me and I will tell you about the whole process with Dr. Almanza.

Great, FM, glad they helped. I had a great experience, they treat you very well. As long as you are aware going in about the strip mall, you will love the experience. Who is your coordinator?

... Who is your coordinator?

Phoebe Mortensen was my coordinator, but she has been MIA often and Bianca Estioko has done most of the work. I don't really like the coordinator system, but I guess they have their reasons for doing business that way.
