I'm sorry to hear you're feeling lost. And I hope things improve as you go along. Just concentrate on how great your new life will be! You're going to do fine. ????

HI There I am scheduled for Sept 11 myself with Dr. Garcia ! Who is your doctor? why are you feeling so lost ?

I had my gs on july 27. Dont worry, it will be fine. I had dr camelo at hospital Florence. 11 days out 25lbs lost and zero complications

I feel the exact same way. I'll be having surgery on Sept 11th in Tijuana at the Clinica San Juan with a Dr Gonzalez. I can't find any information about him. I've paid the deposit and bought my airline tickets. Big time nervous here!!!!

I was originally scheduled at clinic san juan with dr Gonzalez. Bianca called and offered me dr. Camelo . I had researched dr Gonzalez with no luck. After having the sugery at hospital Florence with dr camelo im thrilled with my decision. Even while there, i mentioned dr Gonzalez but no one knew him. Dont be nervous, but everything in gods hands and follow the pre op. Also take 50billion probiotics or 1 tsp apple cider vinegar every day. It will help with recovery. Also, dr Gonzalez does NOT give you take home meds, if you want them, it cost $150 additional. You also have to get your stitches removed but dr camelo uses the kind that di solve.

Good luck and God bless you

My surgery will be September 10th also, and I'll be with Dr. Ariel Ortiz. Is there something in particular you're feeling 'lost' about? Who is your surgeon - maybe we'll be seeing each other soon!

@@LittleNiki my surgery is on Sept 10th in TJ too.

Who is your doctor?

@@LittleNiki who is your doctor?

I believe it's normal to be nervous, as my surgery date approached I was a bundle of nerves. But don't feel lost, you have made a decision that will most definitely improve your health and your life. You are no longer a spectator, you are doing something to better yourself, not a lot of people take that step. Keep yourself busy, that's what helped me stay focused.

@@emilyphoenix74 we had the same doctor! I'm also a dr Camelo sleever. Were you at the florence Hospital? Veronica took care of us while we were down there. Great experience.

yes i was. I had veronica and cynthia. Great women. I had a fun time with them shopping. Loved all the staff at hospital Florence. Great experience ill be going back in a few years for skin removal.
