I've just seen a glowing review of the Florence hospital where the nurses speak English & its was very clean and the bedside manor were top notch. (Free wifi is a bonus) now I'm confused, I was booked into Mi hospital and have heard good reviews - I know not to expect state of the art facilities but there seems to be a few more things attracting me to the Florence now... Any words of wisdom from people who have been to either? Thanks ????

In was at florence last week. Deborah and Pretty in Pink were correct. You can't go wrong with Florence. I am so glad we got the opportunity to change. One MAIN thing with Florence was the call button. Mi doctors does not have it. Once I pushed the call button they were there. The nurses were so sweet and I didn't want for anything.

I wonder if Dr Garcia will start to move his surgerys to there - like I know there's other people on my day so I hope it doesn't muck them around if they're made to move. alma said it was no problem. Also I've asked if my friend and I can be first - I read one lady didn't go till almost 5 ... If we are first that gives us another day to heal as we are travelling quiet a lot after. We are also staying an extra night it TJ just to be sure.

Is there an extra charge to upgrade to Florence

NOPE!!! I wish you were coming in May 8 (

Interesting, I didn't know we had an option, wasn't offered one, I was just booked at Florence. And believe it or not, I was kinda disappointed because I had read so much more about Mi Doctor. But now I guess I'm in the better spot after all. Cool!

THis is great that you have started a thread about the Florence Hospital, I will provide you with the 800 number to the hospital so you can include that on the forum. Yes it is quieter and nicer in my opinion but more than anything, it is a more equipped hospital. Thank you for starting the thread!! this is great

Im sorry but I have to speak up. I had my surgery at Florence in July 2011 with A Lighter Me. Its an older hospital, they treat all kinds of patients and the other patients are not in a different area. Everything obviously went well as now I work for A Lighter Me. But its because of the service I rec'd thru A Lighter Me that I came to work for them. A Lighter Me left Florence because the upgrade is at Mi Doctor. Mi Doctor is only 3 years old and expanding. Everything about Mi Doctor is better. I have been to both and though Florence passed the test when I was there...Mi Doctor by far is the nicer place. The other companies could have moved at any time to Florence if it was such an upgrade ...they moved for other reasons. When using the word 'upgrade' that is a marketing term. I know you will all say well I work for A Lighter Me and of course I back Mi Doctor as I would if we were still at Florence, since I would not have first hand knowledge of Mi Doctor..but in reality Mi Doctor is newer and cleaner and more up to date equipment. Including call buttons in every room, safes for your valuables and 2 different places for your guests to eat. Along with the fact Dr Lopez and Dr Ortiz have the best record between the 2 hospitals and surgeons, as far as complications and NO deaths. We also do our own secondary leak test at Mi Doctor, they do not have that at Florence, you go somewhere else for that. So just so you are informed. My sleeve was in July of 2011. I am a real person as you can see from my much older posts when I was a patient. I left a 15 year career as a professional nanny to professional athletes to work in this position, one I take very seriously. Im just being upfront. And letting you know some facts.
