Had mine May 26,15. Heads up the gas pain is worse then the surgery pain. Walk walk walk i think i may now be good with no gas pain left.

June 15th Tijuana

I'm the same date in Tijuana with Dr Garcia. Who's your surgean?
I am with dr. Jesus Lopez. We will be flying in on Sunday from Texas.
I will be flying in too from Louisville, Ky on the 14th too staying at the Marriott

You will love the Marriott!!!!! We stayed there Feb 2014 when my daughter was sleeved by Dr. Cabero at Mi Doctore hospital. They have a wonderful restaurant downstairs that caters to bariatric patients and guests. It is very secure and not far from the hospital.

This year I stayed at the Sage hotel on the 5th floor above florence Hospital and Dr. Camelo was my surgeon. Again, wonderful group of people!!!! Enjoyed the hospitality of Tijuana.

A word of advice to interact with the hotel and hospital staff....be pleasant, smile and joke with them, and if comfortable leave your hospital room door open (encourages visits by the nurses and other patients). Both times we've been there this is how we were and the staff seemed to respond very positively to us! Of course this is how we are normally and some are not comfortable being so open....that's okay too.

The nurses and doctors were fabulous! Good luck on your journey!
