So Worth It!! - Dominican Republic, DO

ORIGINAL POST

Hello everyone, I thought I would do a quick...

WORTH IT$4,500
Hello everyone, I thought I would do a quick update of my experience with Dr. Estevez. I'm nearing the 3 month mark and I look and feel wonderful. I have been in the gym doing a light workout a few time a week. My results are unbelievable. Dr. Estevez has been extremely attentive to my post-op questions, and I will be returning in October for some work on the glutes. Until then ladies. Oh.. If there is anyone going to Dr. Estevez needing a surgery buddy for late October please contact me I know a great inexpensive hotel with an inexpensive driver, and great post-op help if needed.

Hello guys this is my first time reviewing so please forgive me if I forget anything. I had surgery with Dr. Rafael on March 26, 2013. Our initial contacts were very informative, and he answered all my questions fully. He easily gained my respect and confidence. Upon my arrival in Santo Domingo I met with Dr. Rafael, who was very nice, and at that time he had some labs ran to insure my safety during surgery. I had surgery the next day which went great! I wouldn't say there was no pain, but I felt way better than I expected. I had a TT, breast augmentation, and a small amount of lipo. Dr. Rafael also provided a nurse for massages after surgery, and they did help a great deal. I never had any issues contacting the Dr. after surgery for follow-up, and I'm happy with my results already ( even though I know final results appear in a few months).

im going to him on tuesday do you have any pictures
Hello Round2diva, I'm sorry but I haven't taken any pictures because I have large, easily identifiable tattoos. I'm afraid of my body being all over the net. However, Dr. Rafael has before and after pics of me. I would give him the okay to show you if that will work for you.
I may have one from the side
I went to him
How did you like him? How are your results so far?
Do you have any pictures I am going to him on July 2, 2013 and would really like some advice. Hope you are feeling better.
I just talked to him, he seems very friendly and I love his results. I was thinking about Dr.Baez but haven't seen any of her work. I think i will get a quote and put down a deposit with him.Dr. Duran and Yilly still haven't heard from them, i sent aloof pictures for a quote, and i read on a blog Dr.Duran is getting sued.
He's great...I will be going back in February. I was suppose to go in October. I need to contact him myself.
Which date in feb I'm trying to go around feb to
WHere did you stay I am having some difficulty with my decision to stay at the JM Spa.
I stayed at the Tropical Apart Hotel. It is literally 5 mins from the clinic, and the family that runs it make you feel at home. Also, Donald the manager will be your personal driver for a small fee.
Did it have air conditioning and free wifi?
Me personally, no, I chose not to have it. The fan was so big I had to put on my long sleeve pj's because it was chilly (Brrr). Keep in mind I was there at the end of March and the beginning of April. However, there is air conditioning available and yes there is wifi. I broke my cell the day I arrived ,so I had to use skype the entire time I was there (Netflix too!). But, If you are looking for luxury Tropical Apart may not be for you. I will admit it is not luxury it is more like home with family because that's how they treat you. If you are traveling with someone you could probably find a hotel.
What are you having done?
Thank you for your recommendation. This is a great place we are here now with Donald and family and I swear I feel at home.
