Dr Garcia In May!

I was just wondering if anyone was going to see Dr. Garcia on or around May 7th. I am just wanting to know if I will see anyone I know there when I am there. I would love to have a sleeve buddy there! I am so excited but the time seems to be creeping by, its driving me crazy. I am seeing all these posts of everyone getting their surgeries and losing weight. I am so ready to be there too!

Anyone up for surgery in May?

Dr Garcia is the best

I had my GS the last friday 13, I have to say that be ready just in my case for the gas pain, that was the only thing that make it little disconfort and pain, but no even the surgery was painfull or when I wake up nopppp nothing at all. the staff is so nice, Rossy, the Dr Padilla, Mely, Samuel the driver and all the staff are really profesional and they really take care of you

I start working yesterday and I was feeling a little weak, but is because is only liquid, but now I taking some baby food and feeling much better

By the way Guys,

is you find a Dr who make you a letter saying that is for medical reasons and that you need it, this amount reduce you income a lot so you tax brake go down this year..take everything and take to you tax accesor the next year.:)

I had Insurance, and here is 14k, so I went to a big Bariatric Surgery Hospital for evaluacion and ITold them that I need a letter when say that I cualified for it and why, Signed for the Dr. So walaaa. my Surgery don't cover it and I pay 150 for the consurtation with the Dr.

KEEEP IT IN MIND GUYS.

I am scheduled for Dr. Garcia on May 11. I am so excited and somewhat nervous. I am flying in on May 10, if my passports get here!! I paid to expidite my passports and still have not gotten them, so I am very nervous. Hope to see you in Mexico =) :)

Who did you book your travel through. Some agencies have price assurance.... check on that you may can get a refund on the difference if the price remains the same during your particular week of travel

Ok now all you who are going ot Mexico to do this vsg procedure...how do you go about it. ? I am thinking of doing this. I heard there are low prices but..then $$$ i went to apply for one but got one that wants $$ from me? That is soo wrong I want ot do the procedure asap like most of you and well, with Dr Garcia. How do i literally go about this? Like you all i want o live again after all these years of taking care of others I feel in my bones it is time to take care of ME!

I went thrrough Alighterme. Sandy is my contact. A coworker and I have been researesearching for about 2 years. Sandy did not ask for any money up front or anything unethical. Anytime I have a question I email her and she gets back to me within the same day. My friend is using Dr. Almanza.

Alighterme.co

Is there anyone getting sleeved Monday May 7th with Dr. Garcia. I'm traveling in from Birmingham AL to San Diego then over the border. Since I'm traveling alone I'd love to find a sleeve buddy.

I also went through alighterme.com and am dealing with Linda and Sandy. They are great and wonderful with all the questions I have had. They contact me the same day when I email or call. The process is very easy and understandable. Good luck.

The price is very reasonable also. I will sleeved on May 7th with Dr. Garcia.
