I am scheduled for a tummy tuck and breast lift with Dra Baez for Aug 23. I will be staying at Oasis Recovery House.

After months of reading RS reviews from different doctors and getting quotes, I chose Baez because her work is amazing! I follow her on Instagram and I am never disappointed!!! The decision was between her and Robles, who does amazing work also, but it was so difficult getting in contact with her. Also I was sent three different quotes because the quotes never included what I was asking for. Nothing personalized about the email or responses at all!

So far it has been pretty easy contacting Baez through Whatsapp. She usually responds within 24-48 hours.

I chose them because of the reviews and its low key, the just opened in March and I feel that the more popular houses are crowded.

I just requested them on insta, thanks! I was just emailing with Dr. Baez and I have to get my hemo up one point for the surgery :0 It's at 11.4 right now. I just took two iron pills and am running out to get some green juices. She gave me the bank info for the deposit since we can't Western Union anymore.

Do you have someone to do the massages? I follow this guy on insta @j_masajes a doll posted about him a couple months ago. He seems very knowledgeable about after surgery draining and care.

I'm having mine checked Tuesday. I started taking iron pills, vitamin c and b complex three weeks ago. I hope I get good results. I sent the deposit through money gram. But I did see her post on insta about WU not allowing her to pick up money.

I heard about him. But I'm going with Yaniri Rodriguez. With Oasis the first massage is free with her. She also has great reviews on here and insta. Are you hiring a nurse for the first night of your surgery?

I asked Dr Baez if someone will stay with me the first night and she said the overnight stay and nurse is included in the quote. Did she tell you something different?

Here are the questions I asked and her answers. She didnt answer the last question about the length of the procedure: From: draustraliafragosobaez@outlook.com To: mc@hotmail.com Subject: RE: Solicita presupuesto sin compromiso - Love McKee Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2016 10:23:37 -0400  coughing and vomiting from the anesthesia.  Is this something I should be concerned about again? tell me on the interview to put some medicne to prevent those symtoms Who will be performing the lymphatic massages after surgery.  Can I choose my own person? in the recovery house, i know someone that give massages too or choose whoever you want Will I have a nurse stay with me overnight in the clinic? yes When are the drains normally removed? I plan on booking my stay for 11 days, leaving DR on the 11th day. if you follow the recommendation and compress thigh 11 days is ok to remove if is producing less than 50cc in 24 hours How long does the surgery normally take

Ok that's great. From my research most people says it take about 3 hours. I follow a girl on Instagram who is getting surgery with her the same day as you. I kind of figured she provided an overnight nurse since some docs I requested quotes from stated that I would need to hire one but she didn't. I'm going to have my pcp prescribed something for nausea. My friend is a nurse so she's going to remove my drain if I have to come back with it. I don't want to risk getting seroma and having to get another drain put in.
