What patients say about Tummy Tuck and Liposuction at Marroquín & Sandoval Plastic Surgery Clinic

How convenient is the clinic location and access?

Patients consistently praise the seamless logistics from arrival to departure. Airport transfers are described as 'prompt and very comfortable,' with one noting everything was '💯% from arrival at airport to transfer to hotel and clinic appointments.' The coordination includes regular check-ins and detailed scheduling updates. One patient mentioned the hotel location 'on a mountain' made walking challenging post-surgery, though transfers were provided throughout recovery. The 24-hour assistance and organized approach help international patients feel supported, with one describing being able to board their flight home with 'great confidence' after proper follow-up care.

We chose a doctor for my daughter for a long time and left our choice on Dr. Hakan, he is a doctor from God, his hands are golden, he performed a triple operation for my daughter, brachioplasty, breast implants and reverse abdominoplasty, 5 days have passed since the operation, and it is still difficult to judge objectively about the results, but the stitches that Dr. Hakan makes are a work of art, and the most important thing is how he instills confidence in the patient, my daughter immediately came to her senses after the follow-up examination with the doctor, Thank you very much Dr. Hakan for your patience and professionalism. Young, handsome and talented. I would also like to say about his team, Dr MED’s assistant, Narmina and Mukhlise. Narmina has such sympathy, and can also calm down and give confidence, Mukhlisa is a joyful girl, always positive, always ready to help. The only thing I didn’t like was the location of the hotel, it is located on a mountain, and it is not very easy for a person after surgery to make descents and ascents. Of course, transfers are provided, but the rest of the time you are in the hotel, I really hope for an excellent result of the operation, for this you need to wait 6 months.

How safe is the procedure?

Patients describe feeling reassured about safety from the moment they arrived at Turkish clinics. One noted being 'a bit afraid' initially, but said 'the staff and the doctor immediately allayed' those fears. The surgical experience itself appears well-managed, with patients reporting they had 'keine Schmerzen' (no pain) throughout and received excellent medication management. Post-operative care includes multiple follow-up appointments within the first week, giving patients confidence for their flight home. Clinics provide proper documentation including surgical reports and flight clearance certificates. The nursing teams are described as attentive with someone always available when needed.

Hello, I don't know where to start. At the beginning I was a bit afraid of what to expect, but when I arrived at the hospital the staff and the doctor immediately allayed my fears. I am fascinated by the result of my tummy tuck +360 degree liposuction. The staff and the whole hospital team were very nice and Dr Ergin is the best doctor in my opinion, he knows his job. In the event that I should decide to have another operation at some point, I would only go to this doctor and this hospital. I can't even put into words how happy I am.

Ich habe vor 2 Wochen eine Bauchstraffung mit 360* Fettabsaugung in der Astethic Surgery Clinik in Istanbul bei Dr.Ergin Er machen lassen. Alles wurde über Bookimed für mich organisiert. Ich bekam eine deutsch sprechende Mitarbeiterin von Bookimed mit der ich per WhatsApp App alles im Vorfeld besprechen konnte. Am OP Tag lernte ich die Dolmetscherin die vor Ort für mich zuständig ist, persönlich kennen, zuvor hatten wir schon auf Deutsch geschrieben. Dr.Er war sehr nett und zeigte mir auf was möglich ist und was nicht.Mein 2.Tag in Istanbul war auch gleichzeitig mein OP Tag. Alles verlief so wie zuvor besprochen. Nach der OP wurde ich sehr gut durch ein junges Pflegeteam betreut, es war immer sofort jemand da der sich kümmerte. Ich hatte die ganze Zeit über keine Schmerzen und wurde medikamentös gut versorgt. Ich blieb 2 Tage in der Klinik und ging dann ins Hotel. Innerhalb der 7 Tage gab es 2 weitere Kontrolltermine,so dass ich mit einer grossen Sicherheit in den Flieger nach Deutschland steigen konnte. Auch bekam ich einen OP Bericht und eine Bescheinigung für den Flieger mit, damit ich während des Fluges öfter aufstehen und mich bewegen konnte. Jetzt 2 Wochen später muss ich sagen,dass ich von Tag zu Tag beweglicher und mit dem Ergebnis schon jetzt absolut zufrieden bin. Dabei ist die Schwellung noch nicht ganz abgeheilt Ich kann Bookimed für eine medizinische Reise jedem sehr empfehlen, dort ist man in guten Händen und rundum ist alles gut organisiert

How effective are the treatment results?

Patients report being thrilled with their tummy tuck and liposuction results, with one saying she's 'in love with the new me' and another describing being 'fascinated' by the outcome. Dr. Ergin Er gets frequent praise as a 'talented surgeon' who delivers results that exceed expectations. Even early results impress—patients see improvements within 10 days to 2 weeks, with one noting she's 'absolutely zufrieden' despite swelling still healing. The precision stands out too, with stitches described as 'a work of art.' Results are so satisfying that patients plan return visits and say they'd only choose the same doctor for future procedures.

I contacted several medical cosmetic online services besides direct contact with other cosmetic surgeons offices, Bookimed were the fastest and most attentive. I nominated one female surgeon but Bookimed suggested Dr Derya Bingol based on her high rating and patient satisfaction. The plan was to remove my extra skin in lower abdominal area and to tighten the skin in my abdominal area. Dr removed about 1 kg of extra skin. The cut was clean and precise. Dr Derya had steady hand. Pre surgery and while examination Dr. Bingol suspected that I have umbilical hernia. She requested me to do ultrasound, the ultrasound came positive. Fortunately the Dr asked help of one of her colleagues ( general surgeon)to help in fixing the haria. The surgery has no muscles tightening and it was successful. Dr. Bingol is very caring of her patients. I am currently planning nutrition and diet routine to contour my body as I prefer to do it naturally, without lipo or other procedures. The nurses and the staff were top standard , I couldn’t request for a better primary care service

How long is the recovery period?

Based on patient experiences, recovery progresses steadily with manageable discomfort. One patient reported being 'beweglicher' (more mobile) day by day just two weeks post-surgery, despite ongoing swelling. Hospital stays are typically 2 days, followed by hotel recovery with follow-up appointments. Another noted that 7 days post-facelift was 'too early' to judge final results, suggesting patience is needed. Some found hotel locations on hills challenging for post-surgery mobility, though transfers were provided. Patients describe becoming increasingly mobile within the first week, with proper pain management and attentive care supporting the healing process.

7 days ago I had a face lift surgery, it is too early to talk about the result. Later I will add a review. I want to say that the doctor is a professional. The medical staff is very attentive. I had two interpreters they are just super Semra and Muhlise very attentive. In a year I want to do blephoroplasty in Dr.MED clinic.

How experienced and professional are the doctors?

Patients consistently describe Turkish surgeons as highly skilled professionals who inspire confidence from the first consultation. Dr. Ergin Er is praised as a 'talented surgeon' who 'knows his job,' while Dr. Hakan Teymur is called 'a doctor from God' with 'golden' hands. One patient noted that Dr. Derya Bingol demonstrated exceptional thoroughness by detecting an umbilical hernia during examination and coordinating with a general surgeon for repair. Patients describe surgical precision as 'a work of art' and emphasize how doctors instill confidence even in nervous international patients.

At the Dr.Med clinic, diastasis suturing, 360 liposuction, and abdominoplasty were performed. Before surgery, consult with a Doctor. Operated on Op. Dr. Hakan TEYMUR. Everything went very well. The stay at the clinic was with high quality postoperative care. The doctor is very professional, attentive and responsive. Our coordinator was Narmina. Also always in touch. All issues were resolved quickly and clearly. Special thanks to Muhlise, Semra and the whole team.

Patients consistently describe Turkish clinic facilities as impressively clean and comfortable. One noted the clinic was 'very clean, neat' with 'good cozy rooms,' while another highlighted having a 'very spacious' room. The facilities appear modern with what patients call a 'good' clinic setup. Staff throughout the facilities are described as attentive and efficient, with one patient praising how quickly the team works. The overall environment seems designed for comfort, with patients feeling well-cared for in clean, spacious settings that support their recovery experience.

I had liposuction and a tummy tuck. I am very glad that I chose this clinic, it is very clean, neat, good cozy rooms. Special thanks to the coordinator Elvina, she gives all of herself, and the nurses are all very nice and sympathetic, a huge thank you to all of them!!!!

Will language barriers affect my treatment?

Based on patient experiences, language barriers are effectively managed through comprehensive translation support. Patients describe coordinators who 'explained everything in detail' and interpreters who were 'just super' throughout their journey. German-speaking patients received WhatsApp support in their native language before arrival, while English-speaking patients had dedicated team members guiding them through each step. One patient noted understanding everything on their medical day thanks to thorough explanations. The clinics provide professional interpreters who stay with patients, ensuring clear communication from consultation through recovery and follow-up appointments.

Journey to medical tourism in Turkey was an Excellent experience! Was welcomed at the airport by the team member of Dr. Bakr AbdulHadi and took us to hotel. Next morning was picked up by the team member and meet my surgeon, Everything went smoothly, had tummy tuck with 360 liposuction and BBL. It was very satisfying outcome ( 2 months post surgery). I have to mention the name of team member, English spoken Mr. Souheib who is very professional and was with us all the time of my journey. He provided updated schedule and lead us through. Thank you, Mr., Bakr AbdulHadi for such an arrangement!

Great from start to finish, picked up from airport to hotel always messaged to see I was ok.. medical day I understood everything as the coordinators explained everything in detail. The after care from the nurses was so good, they came in every 2-3 hours got me up and walking and gave me all my medications on time! Thank you to everyone

How clear and organized is the clinic's paperwork?

Patients describe the paperwork process as exceptionally well-organized and thorough. One patient received a comprehensive surgical report and flight clearance documentation, allowing them to move around during their journey home with 'grossen Sicherheit' (great confidence). The administrative coordination appears seamless, with all pre-operative discussions handled clearly through digital communication. Issues are resolved 'quickly and clearly' according to reviewers. Patients particularly appreciate receiving proper medical documentation for travel, including certificates that help with airline requirements. The overall administrative experience leaves patients feeling everything is 'rundum gut organisiert' (well-organized all around).

How supportive and caring is the clinic staff?

Patients consistently describe feeling completely cared for throughout their journey. One solo traveler said she was 'so looked after' that being alone 'didn't feel that way at all.' Staff provide round-the-clock support, with nurses checking every 2-3 hours and coordinators constantly messaging to ensure comfort. Another patient noted the staff made them feel 'more than family' with unwavering support. The nursing teams receive particular praise for being attentive and helping patients walk and recover properly. Some mentioned occasional payment processing difficulties with cards, though this didn't affect the caring atmosphere. Overall, patients describe 'top standard' care that makes even nervous international travelers feel completely supported.

I am very thankful for the beyond excellent care of Ege, the holistic expertise of Dr. Ilker, the brilliant nursing staff and the helpful drivers. From the bottom of my heart thank you so much... All of you have contributed to an Indomitable woman whom is able to live life from now on and not just SURVIVE!.... New Body, New Life!

7 days ago I had a face lift surgery, it is too early to talk about the result. Later I will add a review. I want to say that the doctor is a professional. The medical staff is very attentive. I had two interpreters they are just super Semra and Muhlise very attentive. In a year I want to do blephoroplasty in Dr.MED clinic.

How experienced and professional are the doctors?

Patients consistently describe Turkish surgeons as highly skilled professionals who inspire confidence from the first consultation. Dr. Ergin Er is praised as a 'talented surgeon' who 'knows his job,' while Dr. Hakan Teymur is called 'a doctor from God' with 'golden' hands. One patient noted that Dr. Derya Bingol demonstrated exceptional thoroughness by detecting an umbilical hernia during examination and coordinating with a general surgeon for repair. Patients describe surgical precision as 'a work of art' and emphasize how doctors instill confidence even in nervous international patients.

We chose a doctor for my daughter for a long time and left our choice on Dr. Hakan, he is a doctor from God, his hands are golden, he performed a triple operation for my daughter, brachioplasty, breast implants and reverse abdominoplasty, 5 days have passed since the operation, and it is still difficult to judge objectively about the results, but the stitches that Dr. Hakan makes are a work of art, and the most important thing is how he instills confidence in the patient, my daughter immediately came to her senses after the follow-up examination with the doctor, Thank you very much Dr. Hakan for your patience and professionalism. Young, handsome and talented. I would also like to say about his team, Dr MED’s assistant, Narmina and Mukhlise. Narmina has such sympathy, and can also calm down and give confidence, Mukhlisa is a joyful girl, always positive, always ready to help. The only thing I didn’t like was the location of the hotel, it is located on a mountain, and it is not very easy for a person after surgery to make descents and ascents. Of course, transfers are provided, but the rest of the time you are in the hotel, I really hope for an excellent result of the operation, for this you need to wait 6 months.

At the Dr.Med clinic, diastasis suturing, 360 liposuction, and abdominoplasty were performed. Before surgery, consult with a Doctor. Operated on Op. Dr. Hakan TEYMUR. Everything went very well. The stay at the clinic was with high quality postoperative care. The doctor is very professional, attentive and responsive. Our coordinator was Narmina. Also always in touch. All issues were resolved quickly and clearly. Special thanks to Muhlise, Semra and the whole team.

I contacted several medical cosmetic online services besides direct contact with other cosmetic surgeons offices, Bookimed were the fastest and most attentive. I nominated one female surgeon but Bookimed suggested Dr Derya Bingol based on her high rating and patient satisfaction. The plan was to remove my extra skin in lower abdominal area and to tighten the skin in my abdominal area. Dr removed about 1 kg of extra skin. The cut was clean and precise. Dr Derya had steady hand. Pre surgery and while examination Dr. Bingol suspected that I have umbilical hernia. She requested me to do ultrasound, the ultrasound came positive. Fortunately the Dr asked help of one of her colleagues ( general surgeon)to help in fixing the haria. The surgery has no muscles tightening and it was successful. Dr. Bingol is very caring of her patients. I am currently planning nutrition and diet routine to contour my body as I prefer to do it naturally, without lipo or other procedures. The nurses and the staff were top standard , I couldn’t request for a better primary care service

How comfortable and modern are the clinic facilities?

Patients consistently describe Turkish clinic facilities as impressively clean and comfortable. One noted the clinic was 'very clean, neat' with 'good cozy rooms,' while another highlighted having a 'very spacious' room. The facilities appear modern with what patients call a 'good' clinic setup. Staff throughout the facilities are described as attentive and efficient, with one patient praising how quickly the team works. The overall environment seems designed for comfort, with patients feeling well-cared for in clean, spacious settings that support their recovery experience.

I had liposuction and a tummy tuck. I am very glad that I chose this clinic, it is very clean, neat, good cozy rooms. Special thanks to the coordinator Elvina, she gives all of herself, and the nurses are all very nice and sympathetic, a huge thank you to all of them!!!!

Will language barriers affect my treatment?

Based on patient experiences, language barriers are effectively managed through comprehensive translation support. Patients describe coordinators who 'explained everything in detail' and interpreters who were 'just super' throughout their journey. German-speaking patients received WhatsApp support in their native language before arrival, while English-speaking patients had dedicated team members guiding them through each step. One patient noted understanding everything on their medical day thanks to thorough explanations. The clinics provide professional interpreters who stay with patients, ensuring clear communication from consultation through recovery and follow-up appointments.

Ich habe vor 2 Wochen eine Bauchstraffung mit 360* Fettabsaugung in der Astethic Surgery Clinik in Istanbul bei Dr.Ergin Er machen lassen. Alles wurde über Bookimed für mich organisiert. Ich bekam eine deutsch sprechende Mitarbeiterin von Bookimed mit der ich per WhatsApp App alles im Vorfeld besprechen konnte. Am OP Tag lernte ich die Dolmetscherin die vor Ort für mich zuständig ist, persönlich kennen, zuvor hatten wir schon auf Deutsch geschrieben. Dr.Er war sehr nett und zeigte mir auf was möglich ist und was nicht.Mein 2.Tag in Istanbul war auch gleichzeitig mein OP Tag. Alles verlief so wie zuvor besprochen. Nach der OP wurde ich sehr gut durch ein junges Pflegeteam betreut, es war immer sofort jemand da der sich kümmerte. Ich hatte die ganze Zeit über keine Schmerzen und wurde medikamentös gut versorgt. Ich blieb 2 Tage in der Klinik und ging dann ins Hotel. Innerhalb der 7 Tage gab es 2 weitere Kontrolltermine,so dass ich mit einer grossen Sicherheit in den Flieger nach Deutschland steigen konnte. Auch bekam ich einen OP Bericht und eine Bescheinigung für den Flieger mit, damit ich während des Fluges öfter aufstehen und mich bewegen konnte. Jetzt 2 Wochen später muss ich sagen,dass ich von Tag zu Tag beweglicher und mit dem Ergebnis schon jetzt absolut zufrieden bin. Dabei ist die Schwellung noch nicht ganz abgeheilt Ich kann Bookimed für eine medizinische Reise jedem sehr empfehlen, dort ist man in guten Händen und rundum ist alles gut organisiert

Journey to medical tourism in Turkey was an Excellent experience! Was welcomed at the airport by the team member of Dr. Bakr AbdulHadi and took us to hotel. Next morning was picked up by the team member and meet my surgeon, Everything went smoothly, had tummy tuck with 360 liposuction and BBL. It was very satisfying outcome ( 2 months post surgery). I have to mention the name of team member, English spoken Mr. Souheib who is very professional and was with us all the time of my journey. He provided updated schedule and lead us through. Thank you, Mr., Bakr AbdulHadi for such an arrangement!

The after care from the nurses was so good, they came in every 2-3 hours got me up and walking and gave me all my medications on time! Thank you to everyone

How clear and organized is the clinic's paperwork?

Patients describe the paperwork process as exceptionally well-organized and thorough. One patient received a comprehensive surgical report and flight clearance documentation, allowing them to move around during their journey home with 'grossen Sicherheit' (great confidence). The administrative coordination appears seamless, with all pre-operative discussions handled clearly through digital communication. Issues are resolved 'quickly and clearly' according to reviewers. Patients particularly appreciate receiving proper medical documentation for travel, including certificates that help with airline requirements. The overall administrative experience leaves patients feeling everything is 'rundum gut organisiert' (well-organized all around).

How supportive and caring is the clinic staff?

Patients consistently describe feeling completely cared for throughout their journey. One solo traveler said she was 'so looked after' that being alone 'didn't feel that way at all.' Staff provide round-the-clock support, with nurses checking every 2-3 hours and coordinators constantly messaging to ensure comfort. Another patient noted the staff made them feel 'more than family' with unwavering support. The nursing teams receive particular praise for being attentive and helping patients walk and recover properly. Some mentioned occasional payment processing difficulties with cards, though this didn't affect the caring atmosphere. Overall, patients describe 'top standard' care that makes even nervous international travelers feel completely supported.

I am very thankful for the beyond excellent care of Ege, the holistic expertise of Dr. Ilker, the brilliant nursing staff and the helpful drivers. From the bottom of my heart thank you so much... All of you have contributed to an Indomitable woman whom is able to live life from now on and not just SURVIVE!.... New Body, New Life!

I am 3 months post op and I have zero regrets
The experience I had with Dr Marroquin far exceed my expectations. I am an American living in Miami, FL. I inquired with surgeons locally before deciding to travel abroad for my deep plane face and neck lift with blepharoplasty. After extensive research I found Dr Marroquin, I read through all the patient testimonials I could find and looked at all his before and after photos. I reached out to him via Bookimed. At first I thought I was being scammed, the people at Bookimed did not speak very good english, I could tell I was communicating with a non native english or spanish speaker. The communications came in at weird hours of the day. After a few back and forth, I said I would not proceed any further without speaking with someone from Dr Marroquins office. That same day someone claiming to be Dr Marroquin contacted me on Whatsapp. I thought for sure it was a scam, so at first I ignored him. In Miami you would have to be dying in order for the surgeon to speak with you directly. I told him I was feeling uneasy and he suggested we set up a video call for later that day, I thought there is no way its going to be him on the phone, and sure enough it was him! He took his personal time on a Sunday to call me. We spoke for almost an hour, and at the end of that call I was 100% sure this was my doctor. He is so down to earth and approachable, he made me feel so at ease. I let him know the next day I wanted to proceed with the surgery, from that point on I only communicated with him. He helped me to schedule the surgery, my preop appointments and made recommendations for recovery houses. In less than a month I arrived in Guadalajara, he met with me the next day and we discussed the surgery in length. At that point I decided to add a lip lift to the procedure. I passed all my preop and had my surgery on August 26th. Dr Marroquin was amazing the day of surgery, he spoke to me in english (which he speaks very well), he made sure I understood every step of the process. Everything went very well, I spent the next 10 days in Mexico recovering at a recovery house. I spoke with Dr Marroquin every day while I was there. I had zero complications and flew home after 10 days to continue my recovery at home. I am 3 months post op and I have zero regrets. I speak with Dr Marroquin every few weeks and keep him updated on my progress with photos. If you are considering this surgery, I 100% recommend having a consultation with Dr Marroquin, he is an amazing doctor and human being.
I liked how personal the service was, I really got to know my doctor and felt 100% at ease with him.
I wish I would have waited for the recovery house I wanted to use to have availability. They were booked up so I decided to use another one that was not as highly rated. It was not a bad experience, but it could have been better.

When I first mentioned traveling to Mexico for this procedure, many people in my circle were concerned. We’ve all heard the cautionary tales, but from my first consultation, I knew I was in capable hands. This wasn't just about "getting work done"; it was about a meticulous, highly personalized medical journey. Why This Surgeon Stands Out: Extreme Diligence: The pre-operative phase was incredibly thorough. The doctor didn't just look at my face; they looked at my entire health profile to ensure I was a perfect candidate for a deep plane technique. Constant Communication: The sheer number of check-ups before the surgery completely eased my anxiety. Every question was answered with patience and clinical depth. Meticulous Aftercare: The post-op phase was where the doctor truly shined. I wasn't just "discharged and forgotten." There were frequent, scheduled follow-ups to monitor healing, swelling, and incision sites. Natural Results: The deep plane technique requires a master's touch to avoid that "pulled" look. My results are refreshed, tight in the right places, and—most importantly—look exactly like me, just ten years ago.
While the surgical outcome was great, the actual hospital stay in Guadalajara was a bit of a mixed bag. If you are coming from the US, it’s important to adjust your expectations, as the "luxury" experience you might expect for the price doesn't always translate to the daily bedside care. The Hospital Facilities: A Mediocre Reality The facility itself felt functional, but the patient experience left a lot to be desired. Dealing with a recovery while navigating a different medical system definitely had its moments of frustration. The Lowlights of My Stay: Hygiene & Comfort: I was in bed for two full days, and my sheets were never changed. Most upsetting was having to sleep on a bloody pillowcase from the initial post-op drainage; it felt unsanitary and made it very hard to get comfortable. Medication Confusion: I was given a revolving door of pills and IV drips. While I’m sure they were necessary, there was very little explanation provided. I often felt like I was just swallowing things without knowing if they were for pain, swelling, or infection. Cultural Differences in Care: Things are definitely done differently in Mexico. The nursing staff was polite, but the proactive "pampering" or constant monitoring of room cleanliness that you see in US private hospitals just wasn't there. Final Thoughts on the Facility The surgeon's skill is the main event, but the recovery environment felt a bit neglected. It’s a "no-frills" clinical experience—fine if you just need a bed, but disappointing if you’re expecting a high-end recovery suite. Pro Tip: If you choose this facility, I highly recommend bringing a companion who can advocate for you, ask for fresh linens, and help keep track of your medication schedule. Also, have wipes, napkins, sanitizer, lip balm and a phone charger all within reach.

I felt like both were done taking exactly what I wanted into account and the overall symmetry at the end for my nostrils was excellent - my nose had been broken and before surgery lack of symmetry was a big issue
I had a really great experience with my doctor and care here. I wanted a very natural looking nose, not to look "doll-like" or like I had a rhinoplasty. Same for lip filler. I felt like both were done taking exactly what I wanted into account and the overall symmetry at the end for my nostrils was excellent - my nose had been broken and before surgery lack of symmetry was a big issue. I believe it required different degrees of cutting for each nostril so I'm very impressed that the end result's symmetry appears less than 1mm different from one another, that's a huge improvement from before. The shape is really nice and I was impressed that after surgery the packing was done in such a way that I was able to breathe through my nose the whole time, even during my recovery.

Dr. Marraquin was amazing. He spent over an hour with me on my consultation before my surgery. Let me know absolutely everything that was going to happen. His years of training is quite obvious to anybody who is requesting his services. He answered every question I could possibly think of. Additionally, he was available through text messaging 24 hours a day. He’s response time was impressive. I was very pleased with the outcome of my facelift. I would refer him to any buddy I know.

I’m only 10 days out but definitely will be back to update my review so far he has a 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone thinking of Having surgery. I really cannot say enough about his professionalism
I liked how the doctor explained everything to me in details that I understood made sure I understood exactly what was happening as well as being realistic about how long it will take in the journey to get there. And just knowing that he and his staff were there for me at all times during my stay.
Overall, it was a very positive experience and I don’t think I have any one particular item that I did not like of course nobody likes having surgery done however they made it as comfortable as possible
