Hola ladies,
This has been one heck of journey and I'm not even done yet lol!! I first started researching surgeons in February 2014 after learning about the secret medical tourism world in the DR. I was immediately smittened by Dra Walkiris Robles and sent a deposit booking a date for December 12, 2014. Months down the line after being in Facebook groups, hearing the disappoint of her refusing to do multiple procedures, leaving girls with rolls and back fat, I decided she was not the doctor for me. Luckily, i came across a realself review that I was intrigued by. The patient had surgery with a dominican surgeon named Luis Lima. She looked stunning, nice tummy tuck incision, perky breast. After speaking to his assistance Janet, I was certain this was the surgeon for me. Not only am I having all my procedures done( tummy tuck, full body Lipo, Breast lift with implant, bbl) but his quote was way cheaper!! His tummy tuck incisions are very neat and thin and I love his breast work. So, I sent my deposit to Janet, and now I'm just waiting with excitement!!!

even through all the confusion with choosing a surgeon, the goig back and forth about wether or not to go through with this whole thing, spending a great amount of money on myself, I have had the pleasure of making great friends. I can call them friends because they have been with me through all my indecisiveness, craziness, and just the support I needed when others were against me. Therefore, it's only right that I acknowledge my surgery buddies who have became so much more, Skinny Mia and Cee Love. We are all in different states all over but we are so close in many ways. Wether it's face timing at 12 at night or chatting while working these women are truly kind in heart.

Datscurve it includes tummy tuck, full Lipo, Breast lift with implant and bbl. I don't need a bbl but I do have spots I would like filled in. That price is also including Janet's rh for my stay. 80 per night. Not included in that price is any extra money I will be bringing but the 5400 is recovery house and procedures

Did u hear the news some girl just died in Dr if a pulmonary embolism. I read that tons of girls that go to Dr on here cone back with infections need blood transfusions . some are still fighting to live. I'm not telling u what to do but read some of the Dr reviews they are shocking
October 14, 2014
I think there needs to be an awareness about this
User Avatar
October 14, 2014
Yes I already knew beforehand, but did you also hear that she had sx the same day she flew in? Do you hear about the women who dont inform these doctors of all health history? There are a lot of factors. Many women have gone and came back just fine I know a few. I have also heard of women who has gotten infections...some from not taking their antibiotics hiding them under pillows..

There is awareness about this. People choose to ignore. You can also catch infections in the USA getting surgery. Not just in the DR hun. There are plenty of deaths here in America during and after surgery. Look into it yourself.
October 14, 2014
I read three reviews on here from Dr and all 3 had blood transfusions. Coincidence???
October 14, 2014
Well I hope you have a safe trip and your wishes come true. Good luck with it all. I'm not against Dr as my husband was born there. I just wanted to let u know what I read.

Look if you don't get off of my review with that anti DR mess!! Byeeee! I know about the DR and what goes on since you researching so much research deaths in the US, how many people need transfusions, oh and let me know if you come across the story about the young lady who is now paralyzed after a Breast augmentation being performed in the USA...get off my review and stop in boxing me please. Don't hide behind a fake profile commenting on my thread.

Sooooo...a lots a happened since I last logged on! My surgery was postponed due to unforeseen circumstances, but everything happens for a reason. I'm actually happy I decided to wait. I feel if I would have had surgery with Dr. Lima, I would have been disappointed with my outcome. No shade to anyone, but I had not been liking the results he had been putting out. Even with smaller patients his lipo skills were not as great as I would like them o be. Therefore, I will not be having surgery with him. I decided to choose a different surgeon, who I will not disclose until I post post op pics so stay tuned!! I Arrive in DR on February 17, 2015. Staying with Healing Haven.
