Refund From Garcia.... How Long?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I recently decided to switch doctors and talked to Linda about getting a refund for my $500 deposit.

Does anyone know how long it takes to get this back? I sent it via online wire through that one website.

Thanks!

I got my refund within hours (paid with a mastercard). Try talking to Sandy too. I think Linda has been very busy lately.

I had Dr Garcia and was very happy....just curious as to why you switched and which doctor you are going with? I know there are several good doctors in Tijuana

Andy,

I switched because of the facility. My family has a history of heart problems and I just started experiencing heart palpitations. As you know, Dr. Garcia does not work at a full hospital with cardiac arrest equipped ICU. I decided to go to Kelly because the hospital is a little better prepared for that kind of thing. I do very much like Dr. Garcia though!

Just curious, who told you the Mi Doctor does not have an ICU? We were just there a couple of weeks ago and it is a small hospital but they do have an ICU on the 2nd floor. We asked specifically and also asked to see it.

I understand your fears but I too asked about the ICU and Hospital MI does have one. It was located right next to the room that I was in close to the nurses station. I asked to see the room and they opened it and it was completely equiped. I have worked in the medical profession for the past 33 years and I had no fear. Also wondering who told you that they did not have an ICU??

Best of luck with your new doctor and hospital. Which hospital are you going to be at.

I spoke with someone who was just there, they said it had been converted to another patient room. I will now be at florence hospital. Thanks!

Also, just to let everyone know I did get the refund, it has to be done over the phone now which Linda hadn't told me. I had to call Sandy and find out what was going on! It does seem more secure this way!

I am glad you got your refund. I also got mine fairly quickly, it really had the most to do with the fact that you have to talk to Sandy to do it, but she was very accomodating. I was glad it was not a huge hassle to get my funds back.

I am also going to be at florence hospital with Dr.Kelly in March. When is your surgery?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
