My aunt and uncle went there. They are doing great and speak highly of their experience. It's too much for me to self pay there... I had research further and starting looking into Medical Tourism. My surgery date is 3/11/13.

I've heard great things about Dr. Garcia. Did you book thru Ready 4 a Change? There are several people who speak very highly of him on the Self Pay/Mexico forum.

See Amanda! Now there be three! LOL

Hello Beth...I'm down in SE Ohio...close to Athens.

I'm scheduled for the 29 with dr. Garcia in Tijuana. I'm sooo nervous. I'm on the west side of Cleveland too.

March that is. Lol

I'm March 18th. I'm mostly excited now, but also very nervous too. I'm with Dr. Lopez.

I've been going back and forth with my patient coordinator for the last half an hour trying to get connected with Dr. Ortiz for questions. Sounds like he is buzzing around like a mad man! LOL...everytime the phone rings my heart starts pounding!! I don't usually feel like this unless I'm about to stand up and speak in public! Hope I don't lose my voice like I usually do when that happens....all he will hear is squeaks!!
