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.

Finally Made it to the other side!!!
Ok so I meant to post on IG account but it did not work out, but here is My latest update. I will review more here as soon as I can.
ONE MONTH COUNTDOWN!!!
So a little update!
I've been hella stress with everything. Let's start with my health, from maybe having a thyroid issue to a cyst. Because of that I had to find someone to switch surgery to give me time to figure my health out. Thankfully I did, and I'm scheduled June 15. Now in reference to my health, I'm actually very healthy. My hemo, iron is on notch. And I actually have a super high GOOD fatty cholesterol (which helps the heart.) So I'm hopping I'm clear and ready to go.
Now, surgery itself. Where to start. Well, not sure what the hell is going on with Eres or Images or whatever their called. I hate that they do this kind of stuff bc it makes me not trust them. I haven't had any issues yet with my coordinator (which switch bc my original girl left, now it's Bettsy). I've hear a couple of stuff where Dr. Calva won't be doing bbl beginning July 1st, but now I heard that he won't be doing surgery at all. Apparently he had a board meeting may 2nd, not sure if it has to do with all these changes for him. Now I did email him, and he reassured me that I'm getting my BBL done. So I went ahead and started buying supplies.
If I can give some advice, it's this: shop deals, thrift stores, coupon etc bc it does add up.
-I hate long dresses so I know I'm not going to spend $20 on 7 dresses. Lol, i went thrift shopping and so far I've gotten 7 dresses between 3-5 bucks. ( their gonna get bloody anyways) I also bought two robes (one with tags and one used for $4 each)
-I went looking for luggage also, and then I thought, why not ask a family member aka sister to let me borrow theirs. So money saved there.
-I bought a a long chair also at a thrift store, Clorox it and even sprayed paint the metal, looks brand new.
-pharmacies!!! Even though they tend to be more expensive then Walmart, they have some good deals. Went to Rite-aid and they had their vitamins on sale, buy one get one free. And on top of that I had a $5.00 coupon if I spent more then $30.00. Ended up buying anti-bacteria soap, vitamin c and d, folic acid and b-12 and some other things.
-I think I may order compression socks on line (15-25mmgh) ab board, back board, urinal, and some creams. Of course looking on savings.
I hope this helps.
Ok, and for last, I finally told my mother. She was ok ( I thought it would go worse) but her thing was what if I doesn't work. Well there goes my money.
I think I'm starting to get excited, as before it was frustrating. Hopefully everything starts to be going smoother.

Calling all Of Calva's JuneDolls!!!!!
I'm looking into rescheduling into the first or second week of June possible the third. My surgery date is May 24th. I'm having in issue with my thyroid and I may not be cleared in time. At first I thought it was all the stress that I'm going through but it may not turn out to be that. So please inbox me if your interested in going in sooner, I can switch. So after debating and stressing, I'm going to go ahead with surgery but not without medical clearance. My health comes first. Any takers ???
