Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Up already, getting myself ready and prepared to leave the RH at 630a to head to CIPLA!! No food after 10p last night and no liquids after midnight. Can I say that I am already hungry?? :). I must admit that arriving the day before, staying at RH, chatting it up with other Yily dolls really helped calm any small nerves. I feel great and I'm ready to roll! So far so good!

I am gonna wash up, since I showered late last night and throw all of my stuff in a bag. I am carrying with me:
Maxi dress (for day after surgery)
Chux (pads for bed)
Maxi pads (to go underneath garment)
Bandages (for back incision especially)
Neosporin
Wife beater
Faja
Vitamins(for morning after surgery)

Meals yesterday were:
lunch-Black beans, rice and chicken

Dinner- Chicken with plantains

Ok ladies, I want to thank you in advance for all your prayers, support and encouragement. I will not be taking my phone or iPad to CIPLA, so I will speak with you again when I return to RH. Thank you all once again for everything!!

I arrived in Santo Domingo about 2p. Took me about 45 min to get through everything. Apparently the flights before were delayed, so my flight was packed. When I say everything that could go right, went exactly right. Flights were on time, chatted with folks on flight. The Dominicans are very friendly...even on my flight. Anyway, I landed at 2 pm, got my tourist card, exchanged some money, went through immigrations, got bags, and went through customs. No problem!! Junior was there waiting for me and he is sweet as pie!! I got to spa, got settled, paid my money and had lunch and dinner. It was also good!! Now, I'm sitting here chattin it up with some of the girls who have had surgery. They are all nice, so I am glad about that and they look fabulous for 5 days. Anyway, surgery in the morning. So far, I have no complaints and everything has been wonderful!!
