That is disgusting. A man's life is ruined because someone didnt know the meaning of a one night stand. I understand it was unprofessional of him but I guarentee it if they were still "together" there wouldn't be an issue. Or if she knew someone who she just met overseas doesn't want a relationship.

Dr. Garcia was most likely bombarded with calls and emails demanding he fire Dr. Luna or else. Self-righteousness will do it all the time. I believe since it was consensual the most he should've got was a reprimand. I guess some doctors in MX put business before standing by their employees. I also guessed the right woman. This is one of the rare scenarios I've seen where a woman wasn't ****-shamed for her behavior. While that is a good thing prosecuting the doctor is no better. If she wasn't a fat women who all on this forum can relate to I don't so many would sympathize.

I'm thinking the doctors in Mexico need to be warned to beware of some of their female patients!

Seems like people are missing the point. Doctor's are not to sleep with their patients willing or not. Ever. Period. If nothing else, it confuses the doctor patient relationship as you've seen here. Yes, she's responsible for her actions. It doesn't change the fact he was clearly not acting in the best interests of his patient. That's what being a doctor is about, looking out for their patients. Don't attack people who expect doctors to live up to their obligations. Laura-ven was following her convictions, not launching a vendetta against the guy. Let's be mature about this and let it go. Dr. Garcia has dealt with the situation.

It certainly isn't fair to attack the woman in this situation but I can't say it's fair to attack the doctor either. A part of me wonders if these two people got married and lived happily ever after, would he still be working for dr Garcia. Or if she would feel like she was preyed upon on whatever.

I think the lesson here for the doctor or any professional is don't s h ! t where you eat. And for the ladies, no one would buy a cow that already gives them free milk.

Some ppl are not missing the point. They only disagreeing with the severity of Dr. Luna punishment. I bet they fire less doctors for medical mistakes that endangered or killed patients.

What I want to know is when the OP retracted her story why 2 women on here continue to ask why is she lying like she wasn't lying before. The OP stated she is bipolar.

I know someone who is bipolar and she makes up these outrageous stories about her family and friends to get people to feel sorry for her. I'm imagining that the OP is the same way.

Shame on the women still defending her actions just because a "man" scorned her. She said nothing happened after all so why are you still saying it did? Did he not hit on you and it hurt your feelings?

Just like she made the choice, HE made the choice. He just had a lot more to lose. It's bizarre to me that they were both equally responsible for this nonsense yet you feel that HE is the victim. Did he really think that no one would ever turn on him? That's quite egotistical IMHO.

He was just as wrong as she was and he should have kept it in his pants. That's the bottom line.

im bi polar and I don't go around telling story's to get attention. Bi polar is a mood disorder. It doesn't cause people to make up outrageous stories or purposely ruin people's life. Shame on you to say that just because you know one person who has bi polar.

I didn't say all bipolar people do. Just the girl on here who made up the story and the girl I was talking about.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
