Well so far things are OK, leading up to my consultation it has been rough getting answers to ANYTHING, most of the staff speaks very little English and seemed to not know much, needless to say it was making me very nervous. My in person consult was this past wed, once I actually got into
The office it wasn't so bad, Dr, Rodriguez seems like a very nice guy, I have a little over 3 weeks b4 my surgery so I'm getting myself mentally prepared for the roller coaster of emotion (from pain) and emotion from happiness

September 27, 2016
will do :)
September 26, 2016
I am positive things will turn out great!! Their limitation in language is compensated with their experience in the field and customer service!!!
September 27, 2016
I hope so, im glade i managed to pick the office that i did, i was told that the winchester office had the best customer service
September 27, 2016
I'm scheduled to have the same procedure with the same doctor for the sane day! Hope he's not rushed & we both get great results
September 27, 2016
im sure he wont be rushed at all, I think the cordinators only schedule him for 3 bbl's a day (unsure what the limit is for other procedures) but yea i think things will be fine, i think im the first one for the day, what time is yours?
October 2, 2016
Not sure yet but I'm in the Miami office is that where yours will be?
October 3, 2016
All of the offices are within minutes away from each other, Im scheduled for the Winchester office

Does he use drains?
October 2, 2016
I was told by the ladies that work
There that for the BBL he doesn't use drains, only for the tummy
Tuck and if your having lipo on the arms.. I THINK but with the BBLwity the combination of some pill that's supposed to help you drain and some ultrasound massages that are supposed to be very painful ($100 a massage smh ) but it's supposed to help the draining process with the combo of those two things
September 30, 2016
I've made my payment to have surgery with him I just wish I could see a lot more before and afters. And I want to know if he uses drains or not.
November 12, 2016
Hi I'm getting a tt in February with him and the coordinator I spoke with said that I will have drains for 10 days depending on the fluids so I'm gonna say yes he does use them for tt. Not sure bout bbl. however I'm not sure about my lipo though.

Anyone having a procedure here make sure that you get as much info as you can as far as extra expenses just so that your aware because if you don't ask you may not find out.
Massages 4 for $500
Or 1 for $100
Faja (ONLY comes in one color (tan ????) $165-has to be purchased from office due to sterilization
Abdominal board -$30 (can be bought elsewhere)
Compression socks -$17.00
If you have insurance make sure your insurance card is with you for when you get your pain meds and antibiotics filled by whom ever is with you while your in surgery.... ummmmm I think, I purchased a board else where for $15 and I've also made something like a cushion for me to sit on when I'm actually able to sit which is supposed to be 2weeks after procedure to ensure best results, hope this helps

Hi I'm scheduled with the same surgeon for the same day. I'm from the Orlando area so I haven't had any consultation yet just phone conversations with my representative, who's very helpful & answers all my questions promptly. Since he calls himself ".Magic mike " I hope he works his magic on us & not rushing between patients. I really looking for a really nice curvy figure, not super conservative body. I'm prayerful that everything works out. Thanks for the update on the extras.
October 2, 2016

October 10, 2016

Wow, I've having the same thoughts.... I would feel better if I was sure I would get guaranteed results from dr. Rodriquez.... having very few pics of his previous work makes me very nervous. I would love to have Dr.Macadoo do my procedure. I like his work. It seems as if Dr. Rodriguez was a forced choice from my coordinator. With 6 yrs experience under his belt I'm still prayerful that I get the expected results. Don't wanna do this procedure a second time. NO WAY!
October 10, 2016
I wouldn't do it a second time unless I absolutely had to. And yea Rodriguez is who I was recommended to by several
Diff people actually.
November 12, 2016
Wow I'm with you. I want to just skip to day 10. I had the coordinator to send me pics of his work. I can share with you.
