Mi Doctor – call hospital before surgery

Did anyone having or had surgery at Mi Doctor Hospital in Tijuana call the hospital before to be sure you are on their schedule for surgery? Or did you just trust and everything worked out?

My surgery is coming up quickly and just wondered if I should call ahead?

If you are worried about it, then you should call ...

I didn't call ... Everything was fine. I actually went into surgery first because I was having anxiety about the surgery.

I had surgery there last month. I did not call before, just trusted that everything would be OK and it was. But, looking back, I'm surprised was as calm and trusting as I was-- not typical for my personality :-)

I had surgery on April 15th, 2014 my Dr. was Louisiana Valenzuela, MD. I had an amazing experience. The staff was wonderful and they knew what they were doing. I went through this group http://www.mexicobariatriccenter.com/

I paid a little more but my care was the best I have ever had. You should have a contact person on this side of the boarder that I could talk to, so I didn't feel like I needed to call the hospital.

Good luck to you and I hope your experience is a wonderful as mine was.
