I just booked my flight for 5/29/13. Im having tummy tuck, lipo, and fat transfer to my butt. I am a little afraid of going to DR by myself. I would also like to have some information on the recovery house if you have it. I would also like to know if anyone else is going about that time. I am having the surgery with Dr. Walkiris Robles.

I have been reading some of the other stories on here. I really appriciate them. I do have some questions. I the clinic as bad as I have heard. Are there some things I can do to prevent them? Is there any one else going about that time. I will be leaving from Florida.
The funny part of this is my husband or coworkers do not know what is going on. My husband knows that I am going to SD. He thinks it with a girlfriend. He also think I am getting a hernia repaired. I just do not want him to worry. I will tell him the whole story when I get back. I have started working out so that when I get back my coworkers will think I was on a really good work out program. I am a teacher, so I will not be going back to work until the middle of August. This should be interesting.

Hi I had surgery with Dr. Robles last Tuesday. I highly recommend you bring someone with you to stay with you for the first few days. The clinic was good. Not as bad as other ladies have said. I am staying at Virginia's recovery house and she is the best. Bring extra cash.

Thanks for the heads up about bringing some one with me. I will get to work with that.What are some of the things that I need extra money for? How is the recovery coming? Take care, I will be praying for your prompt recovery.

Yes, bring at least $600 extra. You might need extra iron shots, oxygen therapy, or other medicine. Oxygen therapy cost $100 for a 45 minutes session and sometimes you might need a few sessions.

Do you have contact info for Virginia's?
Does she have the hospital beds, where you can adjust the head an feet? I think that will take pressure off a tummy tuck incision.
Also is she or is there a nurse there? Just in case (heaven forbid) anything goes wrong?

If your going to have surgery with Dr. Robles, specifically request a stay at Virginia's Recovery House. They do have hospital beds which I miss so much since returning home. They are adjustable and makes sleeping more comfortable. Not to mention getting in and out of bed. Virginia is now working the night shift and they bought in a new girl, who is really nice to work the day shift. Every morning Dr. Hernandez goes by to check on every one. They are in constant contact with the doctor.

Does Virginia's have an email or phone number I can contact them with? Sounds like what I'm looking for.

I am trying to decide between Dra.Robles and Yily....

I am trying to decide between Dra.Robles and Yily... any suggestions? I do appriciate Dra. Robles work. I have heard very few negative reviews about her. My concern is the Clinic. I have heard so many negative things about it. I have not read those things about the clinic that Dra. Yily's clinic. I feel her work and reputation are equal to Dra. Robles. I do and will appriciate your words of wisdom.
I am starting to think I am getting to much information. This is getting so confusing. Thanks for any advice for any you may have to offer.

Dr. Robles all the way! I am 16 days PO and am so happy with my results. My experience at the clinic was great. I have no complaints at all. My only advice is to bring someone with you for the first few days until you get to the recovery house. Good luck on your decision!
April 25, 2013
Thanks!! I am confident about my decision to have dr Robles help get my body back!! Get well and keep me posted!! As you know I am excited and nervous at the same time!!
April 26, 2013
It's perfectly normal to be nervous. But be positive and do all you can to be prepared for the surgery. Good luck!
