    I'm so glad you gave me that reassurance as I get closer I get more nervous, and to hear I'll be in good hands is really what I needed to hear. Thank You!!!

Garcia charges 5,000$, I've heard oly good things about him and everybody who went there for surgery. Yes it's at a hospital. If you go to ready for a change.com you can get more info and talk to a coordinator.Good Luck!

A little bit but all the great things I keep hearing about Dr. Garcia on this site are really helping me. I'm excited to start a new life mostly.

Just curious - have either of you with Dr. Garcia received any type of written confirmation of your scheduled surgery? I dont know why, but I just started thinking what if I get all the way there and I am not actually scheduled. I mean, we pay our deposit and trust a coordinator that just says we are scheduled.....

Im sure its fine, just wondering if anyone else has received or requested a confirmation of any sort?

I received a final confirmation once I completed my paperwork and faxed it in. Consent form, etc.

I am also having surgery with Dr Garcia on July 18. I have been speaking with Alma who has been quick to reply and is just wonderful. She forwarded me an email from the doctor saying I was approved. Upon paying my deposit I received a receipt which also confirms my surgery. Can't wait to hear those nurses with their new "Aussie" accents.lol

Dr. Garcia and his team are fabulous...I had my surgery Nov. 7th 2011. Surgery is done in a hospital which was very clean. Nursing staff were excellent. No worries. So happy I had my surgery in Mexico. I am down 76 lbs...
