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?

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
