June 14 2012 Dr Lopez Ortega In Tijuana, Getting Nervous

New to this! Getting my sleeve by Dr Alejandro Lopez Ortega and his wife on June 14 2012 and getting nervous. Don't see many other sleevers with this Doctor, though alighterme is reputable and the other doc Garcia gets raves. Had read good stuff about him on the web, but didn't find this forum until after I scheduled. About to go into clear liquid diiet and wonder if I'll have the energy to make it to Tijuana from Florida by day 3, LOL! Any advice?

Just want to let everyone know I am doing great and felt so taken care of. I swear that when you pushed the button for the nurse they sprinted it was so fast. Dr Lopez was awesome and now I can email personally with pictures and stuff to make sure the wounds are healing well or any other questions.

I'm glad it went well!!! Good luck on your journey!

Hi!

Congratulations on your surgery! I am going through the procedure to book with Doctor Lopez Ortega and like you I haven't seen much with this doctor. How was the experience with him? From what I can find he performs his sleeves at MiHospital, is that where you had yours? Thanks :)
