Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Three Days After Surgery 06/01/2017
Two days after Surgery 5/31/2017
The day of Surgery & After Surgery...
The day Before Surgery -
A few people came to talk to me. The counselor who seemed super sweet yet pushy about me getting a Tummy Tuck rather than a Lipo, ame in amd talk to me about how sure I was about what I was going to do... Then the psychiatrist came in an hour later. She was nice and didn't seem pushy about anything, she only asked questions and listened...

The day of Surgery-
So I had my surgery on May 29th in the morning. I came out about 3 almost 4 hours after. The surgery its self seemed smooth.
Dr. Medina Came in and marked me up, talked about how my results will not be as good because I am not doing a tummy tuck. But I told her that when I sent my pics she NEVER told me anything about TT, and that I felt my skin was not saggy for that. Therefore I was only interested in a Lipo with fat transfer… After that it was to the operating room (OR)...
I was walked to the operating room (OR) and there was introduced to three people, a young women, a short man, and a cute man… The cute dude I knew was not an anesthesiologist and is actually also a plastic surgeon, his name is named Dr. Argeny Mercedes… The other 2 seem to be his assistant. I am guessing they were the once who did my epidural, because the girl and a short dude who seemed to be the assistants were arguing who was going to go in between my legs while I was sitting to hold me for the Epidural… Never the less the Short dude came behind me and set up his epidural things while the girl was in between my legs as I sat in the OR table while Dr. Mercedes was sweet talking to me to calm me down, also while sedating me through the IV…
Moving on while under I did wake up a few times and did see a Male figure lipoing me on from the Left hand side and I don’t recollect hearing my female doctors voice (which is very distinct)… I will give Dr. Medina the benefit of doubt as to who did my surgery…

After Surgery -
Fast forward, I came out the OR and was a little paranoid that I could not feel my legs but I was told it was because of the epidural they use for surgery… Almost at night time I was told I needed a Blood Transfusion, which I didn’t want and asked for Iron shots before we did that. The cocky Pregnant assistant said they had already did that, but I NEVER saw them give me anything AT ALL in my IV, and my friend who was with me also NEVER saw them give me anything… but they said I was sleeping and under anesthesia when they did it, so I honestly didn’t have much to do but to believe them even though my friend also NEVER saw them give me [RS bleep] AND I was not dizzy, nor did my head hurt as she said it should have been feeling...
So I got two bags of blood. After the first bag, the nurse told me that she needed to give me iron shots in my IV, AND than a few hours later I got the second bag.
After all that the a few hours after the transfusion or should I say the Next day I was sent home in the evening...
