My husband and I traveled down to Mexico on September 21, 2016. We were picked up at the airport in San Diego and taken to the hotel. We did have one surprise, I was told that if I paid for a private room my husband just had to pay the one night I was in the hospital after My proceedure. This was not true. We had to pay $280 up front when we got to the hotel, We were not really prepared for this so just an FYI you have to pay for your spouce or who ever comes with you to stay in the room the whole time. Other than that everything else was very clear and not a surprise at all. We were well taken care of and the room was clean and the suroundings were beautiful. We walked around the block many times durring our stay. The hospital although older was clean and the people Polite. The ride home on the airplane was the hardest part of the surgery. I wish I had known that there was milk of magnisia in the medications that were given to me to take when I got home. I could really used it on the air plane on the way home. We were delivered to the airport as planned. I plan to go back to have the excess skin removed in a year. But will also plan to stay in San Diego for a week to be a little more healed for the airplane ride home. I will add pictures later. I have not really taken any yet, but people are starting to notice that I have begun loosing weight.
