I have researched like crazy! I feel confident Dr Medina is my best option. She is very responsive to emails. You must send a deposit to hold your date because she only does two surgeries a day. I sent mine online from my Bank of America account. It was pretty simple. I need more information as far as what I need from here to take with me and what medical evaluations I need as far as going.

I will see Dra Medina on August 2nd. I so love her.
she should have sent you a list of supplies and instructions once you made your deposit and scheduled your date.

I haven't gotten anything yet, I made my deposit almost two weeks ago. I called and they said they would send the info soon by email.

I will follow you to see your journey! I am most nervous about flying 11 hrs 10 days after surgery. How can we do that with a bbl and drains and changing planes? The thought is overwhelming and makes me want to barf!!

Make sure you get your consultation in person from her before u pay because she does your consults 5 minutes before surgery just to tell what she can't do

Hi doll!! I have been researching Dra. Medina and have finally decided to book my deposit I was going to go to the bank in the morning to send the $500 is it easier to go online? I didnt think about it until I saw your post I bank with Bank of America too... how long did it take for her to receive payment online? Was it instant? Next day? Im excired and I think Dra Medina is an excellent doctor I was aiming for September date but no availability so I will book October 20th tomorrow morning!!!!

I'm so sorry I'm just seeing this post! It took about a week! Ugh it was terrible! I thought I did something wrong or sent it to the wrong person and with my luck it would have just disappeared! But it got there and I am confirmed and booked!

Having second thoughts
jatagaJuly 9, 2016
I'm laying here in bed and I just felt a rush of panic. All of these thoughts are running through my head. In light of the recent shootings my heart feels very heavy and I'm feeling selfish and thinking what if something goes wrong and just all the bad stuff. I've been crying all day because I'm just sad for our country, our children, our world. My husband did talk me down but from reading most of these, it's a pretty common thing to have a panic episode. Hopefully I feel better after a good nights rest. I am putting my supply list together. I have seen a lot of ladies talk about fajas? It wasn't included in my list and am wondering if we buy that just for ourselves at home or if it is included with surgery? I know she told me $600 for extras. Maybe those are part of that? Does anyone know?

Hi doll...it's a natural reaction. I was so excited when I researched Dra Medina and looked at several doctors. I was excited when I found her but yesterday I paid my $500 online through Bank of America. Immediately after I felt worried, scared, and nervous if I had made the right decision. Especially with so much going on in my country. I too have cried since hearing about these horrific events. I have 2 sons..one 20 and one 17. I couldn't I'm them not being able to walk down the street without being a target for death. So yesterday I had an episode after paying my deposit and my husband too had to calm me down. So I extremely understand how you feel. I went to bed last night after our conversation and just woke up this morning to read your message. It gives me comfort knowing I'm not alone in this. I mean I have my family but the support from you ladies on real self helps me during times I don't quit understand what I'm doing. So thank you for sharing your feeling and know you are not alone. We are here to support you on your journey every step. Good luck doll and let's continue to pray for our country..heck..the world!!!!

Thank you for your encouragement and support! Us surgery sisters need each other!!! I believe we have made the right decisions but sometime we doubt ourselves. When is your surgery?
July 9, 2016
Very true. I scheduled yesterday. My surgery is October 20th. I wanted September buy she was completely booked.
July 17, 2016
Hopefully this helps I rescheduled for the 19 of October from the September 14
July 11, 2016
good morning. I will be seeing dra medina in 3 weeks. wow. im nervous as well. but im confident that things will work out. I have to trust myself that I made the right decision. I would hate to cancel because of fear and not know. not my syle.. to answer your question about the faja. she gives you your stage one.. then you have to buy your state two while u are there when she feels your state one gets to be to big. so don't buy your second one yet. because you wont know your size.
July 19, 2016
Thank you for the info!!! I don't feel like I have much info yet, maybe closer to surgery time someone will contact me.
July 19, 2016
yes they will. she JUST contacted me as of last week. and then again today and im two weeks pre.. BUT if you have any questions she is always free to answer them. I whats app her all the time. and she responds quickly.
