Hi...my name is Shelly and I'm 36 yes old from canada.I've struggled with weight all my life. This seemed like my only option...After months of deciding and thinking about it I finally booked.
Right from the start it has been amazing..from the questions I had to issues with flights not arriving thus making me miss my appointment for surgery...they accommodated me the next day for it...Celia the nurse in the hospital was extremely awesome...loving and caring...and the nurse from hotel Alejandra... Super super loving and compassionate...the "bell hop" I'll call him... "Alonzo" was a pure gentleman..Nurses there 24/7....meds...freezes..
applejuice...jello...whatever you needed...drivers to and from airport are astounding...

I would do it all over again to have a healthy life....hope you do too!!
Please don't listen to the media about the bad stuff...it's the furthest from the truth...
Thanks to you all so much!
