Anybody go through alighterme and have surgery with Dr. Jesus Ortiz, not Dr. Ariel Ortiz? I haven't found much about him, besides that he's young.

I'm still pre-op, but I'm strongly considering going with Dr. Jesus Ortiz (and yes, he's young--younger than me!). I was told by someone who had surgery with Dr. Lopez (who trained Dr. Ortiz) a month ago that Dr. Ortiz assists Dr. Lopez in TJ (Dr. Osuna has not been assisting Dr. Lopez in TJ because she's taking care of her sick mother in PV, I'm told) and, when he's in TJ, Dr. Lopez assists Dr. Ortiz, so either way you wind up with the same medical team (unless Dr. Lopez is in PV). Hopefully that isn't too confusing to follow!

I just had dr. jesus ortiz through a lighter me Ronda. I had surgery jan 3 and i was in the best care. Abraham picked us up from san diego. We got to the hospital did all our tests, signed papers and i was off in to surgery. Next thing i know im waking up and the surgery i complete. I felt a little pain right after surgery but they give you meds in the iv to help with pain. I just slept and the next day i felt better. I kept walking the hall ways to release the gas that put into us that really helps. you'll enjoy dr. ortiz he speaks very good english and he is easy on the eyes. He is very attentive nad comes to talk with you daily. Right now im at the marriott in tj waiting for dr to see if i can get my drain unhooked and see if i can go home early. I feel fantastic today and would love to be with my family. YOu will not regret your experience with dr. ortiz. Im his #1 faN. IF YOU NEED REASSURANCE CONTACT ME AT pania@hawaii.edu
