I'm getting ready to pay my deposit for my sleeve with Dr Fernando Garcia surgery date jan 7 2013. Has anyone that used Fernando Garcia and can tell me about his Hospital?

Before I paid my deposit for Dr. Garcia, I watched a few videos on YouTube. The hospital seems a little small but clean.

When is your surgery? What mad you pick dr Garcia?

im at the hospital now with my mom....the hospital is fine..the biggest down side to this hospital compared to the one i went to is u may be in a room with someone else....kinda important when ur walking around with ur gown on

You won't be in a room with another patient. These rooms are for patients who have a travel mate. I had a single bed in a private room.

no u maybe...depends on the amount of patients....we stayed the first night on the second floor in an exam room and the two people we came on the shuttle where put in a room with a lady that was by her self .....i would just make sure when ur making ur deposit they promise a single room

I am sorry, I didn't see this message..

It was the reviews on this message board, online research, pricing, talking with a few people personally, youtube, and alma. I also was able to email Dr. Garcia concerning a health issue and his experiences both good and bad. He responded very quickly and offered to call.

My surgery is scheduled for 2/21/13

I will speak to my coordinator about this. If that is the case, I would rather be in the room with my sleeve buddy.

I was sleeved on Oct. 30th with Dr. Garcia and my experience was great! My husband and I had a room to ourselves, but then again we were the only ones on the floor for the stay. As we were leaving... Samuel our driver said he was picking up 5 more patients the next day, so with that said not sure if they will all have their own room.

Yes the hospital is small, but definitely well equipped. They may not have the MOST advanced tools of the trade.. for instance I kind of giggled a little when they took my tempreture with an old school mercury thermometer and place it in my armpit. I haven't had that done in YEARS!!! LOL

I would highly reccomend Dr. Garcia and his staff!

Can someone tell me how to get ahold of alma, ease? I emailed ready 4 a change and got a failure to deliver message.

They asked us at the Mi hospital if you would be willing to share or not, there were 6 of us in the group and we all had our own rooms :-)

Yeah I always call her and she is so prompt to respond.

Just curious what the deposit amount is with ready 4a change. I'm thinking of changing my option to self pay Mexico instead of going thru insurance since I will end up paying roughly the same amount and would get in sooner with going to Mexico..... Is the deposit the same for everyone?

My deposit with them is $500. I think that is pretty much the standard
