Post Date: 8/14/11 6:30 am I just had my surgery with Dr. Carlos Quesada, in Costa Rica. He is a super nice man and a perfectionist in his surgerys. I found him on line at the Healthy Escapes Website He made every effort to make sure i was comfortable with the procedure and why he chose to do the Mini Bypass for me,, over the Lap band that i had originally wanted.. I have asthma and he was also very concerned that i see a lung specialist befor my surgery, to make sure i was at the tip top of my current health. Befor he did any surgerys..
I found the whole experience very comforting and i felt in good hands for the whole time.. In my recovery i am still in constant contact with him and his staff. i have an appointment on Wed. to have my drainage tube taken out..
My husband and i planned on an extended stay, so we do not go home untill Aug 24... to make sure all is good, and i am in good traveling condition. I would highly recoment the extended stay as i sure would not want to be traveling in my recovery stage..
I am still recovering, as my surgery was on Aug 11, 2011 .... So i have no comment on the out come. I do know all the staff we encountered were very professional and most of them spoke english.. The CIMA hospital, where my surgery was preformed, was a wonderful modern place. The room was like a hotel room, my husband was able to stay right in my room with me..
If you have any other questions please message me..
