Tomorrow I Fly To Cancun For Surgery & I Keep 2Nd Guessing Myself

I am an emotional wreck today, I have never been to Cancun and going alone for surgery sounded great months ago when I was preparing for this but now that the time has come I am scared.

For those who went to Mexico alone, can you please give me some reassurance?

Thank u

    I went to Tijuana alone. You will have nothing to worry about. I am sure there will be others there by themself too. I wish you well with your surgery.

  • Dr Perez gave me all the info but I had already read Dr.alverez book which had a more conservative approach. ( available on amazon). I have not need Ed any follow but have his email if needed. Sent

Hi Faith,

I haven't had my surgery yet but I have been to Cancun. It is beautiful! I see you sipping Protein shakes on your patio as you recover! Looking out over the blue ocean. I wish you had someone to share it with you though. Best of luck to you! Dee

Sorry, I didn't go alone to Cancun. But rest assured, your in good hands there. I used Dr. Verboonen and Dr. Perez, they were terrific! Sheri and her husband were very sweet and helpful as well. Try to relax, pray and know that your in the best hands of all "God's," Lifting you in prayer now!

After seeing the posts about Cancun and Dr Perez I am now considering going there rather than Tijuana. How much follow up have you needed with your surgeon? Did Dr Perez give education for post-op diet?
