Hello Dolls
I’m booked to have my surgery next month with Dr Tanger Castillo from her office in Santo Domingo, looking for any advice please.
I can’t find much on her, I’m super nervous and excited at the same time !!!!
Also, can someone please advice me on the things that I might need, how bad is the recovery process?

Any feedback or photos from your surgery?
Hi, my hair stylist actually saw Dr. Castillo last year for a tummy tuck, lipo and having her tubes tied. She looks AMAZING!!!! She was in DR for 3 weeks and returned home and back to work (while wearing her faja). She is actually returning to see Dr. Castillo in October to have her breast done. I want to join her because I am in desperate need of a tummy tuck and some lipo, but I am really nervous about it. Please post before/after pics. I'm interested to know how things go for you. Good luck!
I plan on going Oct/Nov. Still trying to decide on a doctor. Any feedback from your hairdresser on this doctor would be great.
After doing a lot of research I decided to have my surgery done with dr. Tanger castillo for a lipo bbl and I am nothing but pleased and thankful. I am so glad to have made the right decision. My surgery was on March 14, 2016 in the capital. Tanger is super sweet and the clinic cecilip Is xtra clean. Makes you feel like you are in a hotel (at least the recovery room) ). The surgery room is xtra neat. Loved it. I literally had no bruces besides I'm the back of my armpits. She did such a sophisticated job... I am extremely pleased. My recovery has been great comparing the horror stories I have heard with other doctors. The only downside is that I had to keep asking her for instructions and that was a bit annoying but if you text her she will respond at a decent time frame. She had me go into the clinic on Saturday for blood work and x rays. My ekg was done the day of surgery. She also had me take a shot the day before surgery to prevent bloodclots. And also for 10 days after I was released from the clinic. Took antibiótics for 7 days. And Ibeprofen 800 and another pill she prescribe. Also bought arnicare and loticon those are cream for bruising and selling stayed my massages 3 days after surgery after she okayed it since I was only staying for 12 days after the surgery. The girl that did my massages was someone that works with her. She's great really sweet. Payed $220 dollars for 9 massages. One massage a Day.... one thing is you do need to rest. Rest rest rest rest. Can't stress that enough. Because If you start walking to much your swelling will not go down. Trust me. I felt so good that I even went to the mall. But then regretted. Lol. So just stay home. Oh. Another thing I was sooo constipated so eat very light at least a week before surgery. I just came back to work today desk duty and do not feel any pain. Oh make sure you get a wheelchair at the airport even if you feel like you can walk because Like I said your body will feel it and the swelling will come back again. I love the fact that I was the only patient she was operating that day. . If you get operated in the capital she will come back a few days later to check up on you and drain any liquid which needs to be drain well at least for me since she's didn't place a drainer. And she also had a nurse in the capital that you can see in the clinic at any time . Good luck and trust God. You will be fine. Tanger castillo is an amazing doctor
Thank you for being so detailed...it really helps...Glad to hear that u r doing great...I'm being very positive as I feel very comfortable with her and all I hear is good things about her...If God allows it, I want to get a TT, Lipo and some BBL
No problem. If u have any more questions u can always ask me. Anything at all. You will look awesome.
Hi my love I am having surgery with her April 25 I was in dr back in February to do surgery with her but my blood levels was to low I love dr tanger she is so nice and honest she told me to get my blood levels up and come back she wasn't going to take my money it's not about the money like the other doctors so I will be going back in 3 weeks I can't wait my blood is 13.5 now so I am so ready and
Thank u Alice0305 :-)
Hi Kelly, where did u check ur blood levels...I'm so afraid that might happen to me since I'm getting my period this weekend and if God allows it my surgery is next Friday...Don't want her to send me back home :(
Hi I check with my doctor a 10 days before I went and then I got my period 6 days before I went so check your blood before u get on the plane
Oh wow...That doesn't sound good for me :-(
