I am doing quite well after surgery. I have had only minor problems such as nausea after eating too much or too fast, but these are things about which I was forewarned. We spent a couple of days in San Diego after the procedure, and I was able to walk about 10 miles a day.

Your staff is very courteous, attentive, and knowledgeable. Communication skills for most were more than acceptable. Martin provided explicit information with an exceptional command of the English language as did Alfredo, Enrique, Nathaniel, and Lupeta. The only one with whom I had difficulty communicating was Hector.

Both Dr. Almanza and Dr. Benincourt were very courteous, knowledgeable, and supportive. I also appreciate the manner in which my husband was accepted and treated during this time. Because of his experience as a surgical nurse, he was afforded the opportunity to observe some of the procedure as well as given a wonderful meal.

One item I may be interested in later is breast augmentation. I had mastopexy in Jacksonville, Florida a couple of years ago and was left with one breast noticeably larger than the other. I would like to know if you do this type or reconstructive procedure.

Many thanks to your staff. I feel that this procedure will be a blessing to me as it has been to my son, my daughter-in-law, and my friend and financial director.

Respectively submitted,
Donna B. Tindall
