Dr. Corvala was wonderful. He had a great bedside manner. The anest. he works with was great and good looking. There was/is nothing bad I can say about this doctor. I chose him as my doctor because after researching him, I found that he was a reputable doctor and the fact that he teaches the procedure to US doctors made any doubts I may have had about him disappear.

Dr. Corvala and the staff at Hospital Angeles were awesome. Our trip was easy and the surgery went excellent. The only issue was that not all staff nurses speack english, but guess what you can find someone who does or utilize the papers they give you upon arrival which give you the most common us questions with the spanish translation right next to it.
Things to remember:
My husband and I will be developing a full line referal service for helping any and people looking into this option, I can say the surgery and hospital are great unfortunately the pre information is lacking.
1. Passport is not needed unless you fly into Tijuana, but you will need id and a birth certificate. However June of 2009 this will change to passport only, so we suggest getting one.
2. Whichever... [Click here for more] referal services you use they are helpful, but we found several items you may want to know that they don't share to well.
Payment: Best option Cashier Check made out to te doctor
Some came with Check made to cash bad no no she had to go back to san diego to cash it and then pay big fee.
Others came with Credit Card... Call the CC company before traveling as they may not allow charges out of the country.
Get receipts for everything - Definite tax right off potential
The referal services are working to make money just like everyone else so dont expect the world but ask you questions... Payment, pick up.
Medications; in the hospital they have a huge mark up - Walk out the front of the hospital, cross the street and walk 3 blocks to you right, there is a 24 hour pharmacy and we spent nothing really for our perscription as well as no perscription needs.
Remember the minor difficulties with communication weere nothing, I can tell you that the hospital is exceptional similar to a 5 star time share, they are constantly clean, the staff takes all needed precautions even more than i have seen in the US and they treat you like celebrities.:thu mbup: No my weight lose starts.
Any questions let me know, also I will post my website with all referall option soon and list the url here.

Only met him briefly. He was very nice, spoke enlglish well. I had a concern very early in the morning on the day I was to go home. The nursing staff called him at 5:00am and he spoke to me on the phone about it. Posted on 07/30/2008 |

Dr. Corvala is very compassionate and seemed to truly care about his patient's emotional well being as well as their physical. His staff was great and the facility was too. Even after I arrived back home I received several emails from my patient facilitator and his staff making sure I was doing ok. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to him and his staff. I only wish I could go back for my fills just to keep in touch with them. Posted on 07/06/2008 |
