I find it funny you are still talking trash like he did do something when she said he didn't! This is the internet and people like to MAKE UP things for attention and people like you give fuel to the fire when you continue to say that you believed he slept with her when she said he DID NOT.

Uhm....ok.

I will stand by my thought that Dr.Garcia is clearly a gifted and well respected surgeon. If he did not feel his staff was in the wrong, he would not have let Luna go. I am sure all the patients who have worked with Dr. Garcia in the past trust him and trust his decision to do the right thing.

I have no need to prove to you what else I know. I will leave it at that and wish you a good night! Your opinion of me means little to naught.

I don't understand why being his patient has anything to do with....well ....anything. My uncle seemed like a great man. Always nice to me. Made me laugh all the time. In my eyes everyone liked to be around him. I wasn't aware that behind my back he was beating my aunt and abusive to my two young cousins.

We all can agree to disagree..evidence is key..its one post that was turned into many posts by other females that started bad mouthing Dr Luna on one persons claim...to the point that he lost his job...im upset because what if its false????? She said she lied..what threat would make her retract..shes not even in the same country..

I didn't say I have an opinion of you. Just makes me angry when someone is accused of something they didn't do and how do you know he was let go? Just because someone on here said he was?

I'm sorry I've made some of you angry it was not my intention. I just want people to stop defending her like she did nothing wrong.

Well it is idk possible that maybe some people go straight to the company instead of blasting it on the Internet. I highly doubt a guy would lose his job over one flimsy claim

I find it funny you are still talking trash like he did do something when she said he didn't! This is the internet and people like to MAKE UP things for attention and people like you give fuel to the fire when you continue to say that you believed he slept with her when she said he DID NOT.

Then does it matter that she's said multiple times to me that she did sleep with him (both before and after the retraction ... with time stamps to prove it)? Does it matter that there is proof of their relationship? Does it matter that I spoke to him about it myself?! lol

I swore I wouldn't comment again, but some of you are killing me! I kept the evidence that I have only to protect myself, because some one messaged me a pretty nasty little message about how I could be sued for slander. Let's be clear though, I'm not worried about a lawsuit one bit. Not only because I only said truthful things, but because Dr. Luna is well aware of what I know, what he and I discussed personally and what has been forwarded to me by the OP.

And I will say again... No, of course there wouldn't have been anything said to his employers if they stayed together and at their wedding we probably would have all laughed about how they met! (Again, not in a position now that I want to put my neck out defending her, but...) The OP didn't post because she was simply a woman scorned. She posted because she genuinely felt tricked into believing it was more than a one night stand by someone she believed, in part, because of his position as her attending physician. She WAS embarrassed and ashamed of falling for it and hopping into bed with him, which is why she posted under a fake name. By the way, there is no anonymity with Dr. Garcia or Ready 4 a Change. They know who she is. But she fully admits that she was wrong too and shouldn't have jumped into bed with someone just because they sweet talked her.

But, all of that is beside the point that a lot of people here are trying to make. Consensual as it was, he was in a position that prohibits the behavior he displayed. He knew very well what the consequences were when he started but likely thought he could talk his way through it, even when she realized he wasn't interested long term... And he almost succeeded!! He got her to retract at least. But in the end, the evidence was just too overwhelming to talk his way out of. And in the US, not only are doctors prohibited from sleeping with their patients (and yes, that definitely includes consensual sex, or even if they were "seduced"), and in some fields, that doctor can actually face CRIMINAL charges for that consensual sex. And as far as that goes, when I worked for a hotel there was a very strict policy against dating guests. We would have long term guests (up to a year sometimes) and if I was caught sleeping with one of them, I would have been let go as well.

As a patient, I was more than happy with every aspect of my medical care from Dr. Garcia and even Dr. Luna. However, when you break the rules of your employment, you lose that employment. There are many reasons why doctors aren't allowed to sleep with patients. If you are arguing against that restriction, then that's a different conversation. But for this topic, it doesn't matter how willing each one was, the rules were black and white!

You keep saying she told you she did several times. She told us she did also then she said she lied so what else should we believe?

Also if what you say is true then I don't think she should have aired her dirty laundry on this forum because we are all (myself included) arguing with each other on this forum about it.

Lol well, if you're determined to follow ONE piece of the puzzle, I can't help you. Yes, she retracted and said she lied. She has told the same story for 2 months to friends, and in ONE post she said it was untrue (after a long night of sweet talk from the doc), and then followed up to me, in writing, saying that she would rather people think she is a liar, than him lose his job.

But again, if you're determined to look at one piece, and assume its complete factuality and abandon all others, then I don't know what to tell you. You keep saying "she LIED" but ironically you're 100% convinced you know WHEN she lied! Lol

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

    • LeighaTR

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
