Hi ladies. I hope this review reaches a few people. I was scheduled to have a TT and BBL 2 days ago. My hemo was too low so I've been working to get that raised. This gives me time to let yall know what I have experienced so far.
I arrived in the DR, went through customs, paid my $10 and got my passport stamped for the first time. Yay! My driver was there and took me to Daisy's. My room is private but has two beds. This was nice because I spread out all my stuff on the spare bed. The following morning we were at the hospital early. It is not new but everything was very clean. Some rooms will make you think, "I don't know. Kinda sketchy" but everyone I encountered was competent and that put me at ease. I fully trust Dr Baez.
My labs were great except for hemo, 11.3 and needed to be 12. This ruled out lipo tho I could have had the TT done. Dr. Baez mentioned that without lipo on upper stomach and hips the results will not be what im looking for. My other option was to postpone surgery and spend a few days getting iron infusions. My phone wasnt working yet and she let me use hers to call my husband. We decided to postpone and infuse.
The infusions are done in the recovery center by the nurse. I got a scrip from the dr. for iron and also a hormone like procrit or epogen. All the supplies (see photo) were about $75. If you dont know about anemia and infusions, this is really cheap!!
So Daisy made sure I am getting a special diet and juices and shaked that are all rich in iron and the cook is really good. Everything's been delicious! She even searched street vendors for a fruit they couldnt find in the store to juice.
Today was my last infusion, tomorrow I get my iron levels checked again. If all is well I will have surgery the following day. Fingers crossed!

Iron levels up! Surgery tomorrow.
ZzahrahHOctober 26, 2014
So the iron infusuons worked. I had my hemo levels checked today and it was 12.2. The Dr. sent me this info on WhatsApp said to rest and eat until 10pm and to be at the hospital at 6:30am.
A word about Daisy and her revocery house. When u first arrived I was in bad shape. I battle with anxiety and had really worked myself into a lather worrying about everything. I was not pleasant by the time I arrived unfortunately. Daisy, and her staff, were patient and understanding and worked hard to help me feel better. With proper rest and good food and encouragement I was back to myself and am excited now!
The recovery house is just that, a great big house. I find it comfortable and homey and ehat youd expect from a nice home in a country like this, if one has ever traveled to these kinds of places before. They keep it so clean my husband said (from pictures) that it looks like no one lives here! I am convinced that Daisy and her staff; Lina, Libo and Gabriella, really do care about me and my comfort here. Daisy has also been a cheerleader, stressing that this surgery requires a positive attitude. My husband and I are very happy we chose this place for me to recover in.

Hi and thank you so much. You're going to love her. Im skeptical by nature and was taken aback by how caring she is. I'm convinced she's genuine and really does care! Im going to update with pics now.

Can't find my befores!!!
ZzahrahHOctober 28, 2014
So this is irritating. U can find mt befire shots in my phone. I took them in the hotel room I stayed at the night before I left. These are close approximations and I'll post me real befores as soon as I can figure out what happened to them. These before, again, are not me but close. So I had pretty bad violin hips, quite wide saddlebags, cellulite about half way down the back of my thighs and the bottom of my butt cheeks had just begun to fall down, to over lap. Im 43 with 4 kids.
