Which Dr. Do You Recommend?

I haven't officially set up anything yet, but want to get as much information as possible before I do. Which Dr. Would you recommend for us that are going to travel to Mexico for surgery?

    For me, the only choice was Dr Kelly. He and his team were amazing and went above and beyond. I did not have a typical run of the mill surgery. I had a 7 yr old band, old infection from port that ran

am not happy about the "alone" but it is what it is. Most of my family is east coast, I am west coast and friends work....so, alone, it is.

So happy that you have chosen Dr. Ortiz!! Southern Oregon makes a great point about the plastic surgery! Dr. Ortiz partners with a plastic surgeon that is excellent... or so I hear.. :) He actually practices at the OCC Clinic. They actually offered to do cosmetic procedures while I was there for my surgery. I said no at first because I wanted to focus on my surgery and recovery but I sooooo wish would have done it now cause recovery was a breeze!!! They have a stem cell plasma procedure for your face and from what I have seen it's a complete reversal of the aging process! I am soooo going back for some "work" next year!! I think I will need a tummy tuck eventually and maybe even a boob lift but I don't have any children yet and I want to make sure that I wait until that chapter of my life is over before I have makeover.. :)

So exited for you!!! You will have a great experience!!!!

Don't sweat the alone part. I went alone & TBH, it all seemed to happen so quickly that I didn't miss having anybody there. That and you will meet others there
