After numerous sleepless nights and heavy research I think my search is over. I've Choose A New Doctor (Dr. JOSE LEON) & I'm Looking To Stay @ Janet Recovery House. I've already started racking up on my vitamins and took a blood exam with my primary doctor here in the states.

I'm so excited, anyone leaving from JFK THE first week of December?

P.S (Mini TT,LIPO,BBL,BREAST LIFT/IMPLANT) My price isn't including flight or RH Stay. I also get massages everyday which is included along with Testings,Medications & follow Up appts. So far the only thing I need to purchase extra is my 2nd stage Faja.

I called dr. Leon today and his assistant says hopefully by December his RH will be open, but they're strongly recommending me to Rocio Ortega.

Okay! So I'm really feeling Dr.Jose Leon he's so informative and I really think he's gonna be the ONE. I emailed Dr. Leon for the 1st time on October 8 , 2015 and received a phone call from him the next day around 3pm discussing my evaluation. He speaks PERFECT English and that alone to me was a huge plus. I didnt feel comfortable going to a Doctor that didnt speak english or BARELY knew how to comprehend. All this money these doctors are getting and some of them won't invest in Rosetta Stone (that raises eyebrows for me especially when majority of your pt's are from the states ). I'm spending alot of hard earn money so I have a right to be picky. Anyways first off I wanted LIPO (stomach, arm, back, flanks & waist) with BBL, but after my evaluation some things has change.

My lower stomach has a great amount of fat stored in that area so I wasn't sure if Lipo would be enough but I'm so happy Dr.Leon brought to my attention that there's a possibility that I may have some extra flab if I only just get the lipo. I've been evaluated by (7) different doctors before and Dr.Leon was the only one who strongly recommend a (MINI TUMMY TUCK). So on that note MINI TT it is and along with that I added a BREAST LIFT W/ IMPLANT (I couldn't help it the price is right Lol). OH YEA I'm Getting Lipo in the Inner Thigh Area as well * chesse* ????????????.

So that leaves me with MINI TT, BREAST AUGMENTATION, LIPO, & BBL (UNDER $6,000) he also included my massages (which I'll be getting everyday) and transportation (to & from airport, & ALL post op app) and post op medications. Today is October 12 and I'll be calling him in the morning just to brief up on some things because I'll be sending off my deposit ASAP (I'll post a pic of my receipt when I do ????).

As for my RH, I think I spoke to soon. I did emailed janet and she contacted me back very fast but informed me that she doesn't take pt's who didn't undergo sx with her doctor. So basically she only takes the patients for the doctor she works with. So she strongly recommend I contact Ms Ruth (Real Tropical Deluxe) which I did , we spoke for hours on whatsapp and I just might send her my deposit as well. I'm so over hunting for a recovery house but I'm glad I'm taking my time and really waying out my options. I've been reading about Ruth thru Real self and I must say people are saying good things about HER & HER MEDICAL ATTENTION so I just might go there ????????. I'm staying in DR for 12 days (Sunday - Thursday)

In total my Deposit Fees Are $300, $200 for the down payment for SX and $100 for my RH. I'm crossing my fingers for December (my job hasn't approved my time as yet) but I'm hoping for the best. As soon as I get word I'm BUYING MY FLIGHT ????????????. I pretty much have majority of my items but I did make an updated list tonight. I even packed my clothes away and tuck my suitcase under my bed LOL.

Anyways Dolls Have a goodnight I'll update later on in the week. Ciao????

Things are going so good for me I made my deposit lastnight to Dr.Leon and Now Things are getting REAL.

As for my RH, His Assistant is Taking Care Of That For Me So I'm Not Worried And Honestly I Don't Recommend Ppl To Search Around For Their own RH, Go with Who Your Doctor Recommends.

I'm Staying in DR For (12 Days) , I'm No Longer Going With The "Implants" Just Breast Lift. I'm Still Young So If I Choose To Do the Implants In My Later Years I'll Do it But For Now The Lift is Just Fine. Nor Am I Doing Lipo In My Legs (I'll work that out in the gym) So It's Just Gonna be My (Arms,Stomach,Back,Flanks and Waist). I want about 1200-1400cc into my buttocks , I'll Post Some Wish Pics.

Smart move...if any infection it runs to a foreign object. That would be the breast implants. There is no need being so young. Personally when I saw the pic of your legs...I thought it was a post op pic and got confused. Your legs look great. Congrats you will be fabulous!

I'm not sure. My plans were to have it done before Thanksgiving. Applied for my passport and my ex husband slapped a lawsuit on me....and I cannot leave the country until resolved. Divorced over 12 years and the Di*khead still will not get out of my life. I plan on seeing Yily in the D.R. for surgery. It will be within the next two months without a doubt.

Btw, how were your previous labs? I had started on the normal iron supplements, etc. My labs got screwed because of the supplements. My PCP told me noooo supplements. My iron is about 15.6 with no supplements. I eat spinach daily.

So glad you decided to go with Dr. Leon. I am going with him as well. I will be picking my own recovery house though. If you are not fussy about details then I guess it is fine. But I have seen alot of these recovery houses and they are nowhere I would want to lay my head ever. Some only have shared rooms and shared bathrooms which I don't feel is sanitary at all when bleeding from surgery and possibly coming into to contact with blood from other people. Dr. Leon is opening a recovery house soon so I will keep an eye out for that but in the meantime I have a backup plan.
