Looking up...

So, since I've had to cancel my surgery I've been depressed... Even more so than what I was before. I felt like I finally found a solution to help me with my problem, and I had to just give up on that all together. I've been thinking of any way possible to come up with the money. But I do have good news! My income tax may be more than what I anticipated! :) if so, I still may not be able to go in March, but maybe in a few more months!! I hope...

    Have either one of you looked into a less expensive surgeon? Not sure what the cost is of the dr of your choice, but just a thought

Yay! You'll find a way to change your life, I just know it!

Everything will work out for you...I am in the same predicament that you are in and I'm just saving and trying to stay positive. I talked to alma last week from r4ac and she said at this time they are not in house financing but to contact her within 30 days to see if everything goes thru...So I will keep my fingers crossed with that but if not at least I know that I eventually will get to Mexico....

I agree with u. I originally was going with Dr. Lopez but the Dr I ended up going with is $750 cheaper n doesn't require a deposit. Dr. Illan $4000!!!

@zoriahdiana5. Can you give me more info on Dr. Illan and a phone number? And also do they use a coordinator? Thats a big price difference!

info@bajabariatrics.com yes he uses a coordinator. His name is Omar and was Dr. Kelly's old one.

I'm leaving on the 18th having surgery on the 19th with Dr. Illan. I changed to him as well. Coordinator is awesome n so is Dr. Illan. We stay n constant contact, I had a meeting on Skype with Dr. Illan courtesy of Omar my coordinator. When searching for a Dr., No other coordinator offered me that. It's a group of us ladies that r all going n we're all awesome!! Lol. We have our own lil page on FB that we stay in contact on too.
