Considering a Tummy Tuck in Dr. Dr Robles? - Dominican Republic

I practically live on this site, I'm officially addicted! lol. I read some horror stories last night about plastic surgery in DR and women being burnt and some even dying after having had surgery at CIPLA. Luckily not with the doc I'm considering, but still. I'm also a bit concerned with the fact that I have 12 hour something flight back from DR, which is not ideal after shortly after having had a tummy tuck. Furthermore, I don't wanna travel with my drains still in. I have a consultation on Monday with one of the top docs in my country (the one who quoted me 12 000 USD for a tummy tuck) and hopefully he'll reduce the price, even though I doubt it.

Ok, so yet another update regarding the docs and their replies (or rather lack of, lol). Tried contacting dr. Almonte also, but haven't heard back from her yet. Also, I got a message on here from Dr. Cardenas secretary who apologized for not getting back to me as my e-mails had got stuck in some filter or something. Awaiting a quote from her. I also got a new mail from Robles, saying that I could stay at a hotel if I wanted to and that she had two available dates in March. Feeling a little bit insecure if I decide to go ahead and if a complication arises and I won't be able to get a hold of her. Hmm. Hopefully I'll have the guts do travel to the DR to have this done, but I'm very nervous. I'm especially nervous about waking up during surgery and being in pain. Ugh! Also, I've decided that I'm definitely not going alone, as I have a 20 hours something flight journey from where I live to the DR and after having previously had surgery abroad traveling alone, I won't go through that again. I have a Spanish speaking friend whom I'm trying to get to know better and hopefully he'll come with me, lol. My BFF however, is not too keen on my having this surgery and she threatened to tell my ex boyfriend about this Spanish speaking guy possibly coming with me if I decide to through with it (my ex is very jealous and it would just become a hot mess!). Argh.. :/

So I got an e-mail back from Yily after I tried to explain that I've already had liposuction. All she wrote back was a list of available surgery dates. I get that she's super busy and all, but I really didn't like that she didn't answer any of my concerns. As of now, I'm thinking of either Duran or Robles. Hopefully one of them will get back to me soon!
