So my journey begins at loading zone F at 8:03am, as I waited for our driver to pick us up I met a few other ladies and gentlemen who were also waiting to be picked up they notified us of pick up times however it was a little longer of a wait than what was told. (Keep in mind the driver is driving back and fourth between the airport and the hispital) but the driver Oscar was wonderful very polite and helpful and got us to and from safely. As your on your way to the hospital the first day you start to bond with the other people in your group you don't realize it at the time but those people who are with you will end up being your support team and cheerleaders and you grow a friendship. So we arrive to the hospital it's very nice looking on the outside as well as clean and beautiful on the inside (also very cold). The hospital staff is very nice and welcoming and keep in mind that it takes a while to get everyone checked out and the exams done. But it wasn't hours of waiting and wondering they communicate very well. The nursing staff and doctors are all nice and explain everything well if they seen or thought something wasn't right they made sure to take that extra step verify your in health to have everything done. Going into to surgery I felt comfortable and well taken care of. My experience I had gas pains right out of surgery and I was in a little pain but the nurses stayed by my side and comforted me and took care of me. They talked to you like a human and supported your feelings when your going through the emotions. Recovery was tough for me not because of anything other than gas pains but it's part of the procedure . When we were finally able to be released from the hospital and moved to our hotel the nursing staff there was awesome. All of the nurses were available and show up with a reasonable time (again there are multiple patients all going through the same thing so they made their rounds as fast and safely as possible) they took well care of us. Any questions I had they either found an answer for or had the answer to. I would highly recommend this place to anyone I'm actually have another procedure done in a few month and I will be returning. I absolutely loved the care and nurses and the doctors who were all there before,during, and after. This has been the best life changing experience of my life and one of the best things I've ever done for myself. If your considering this place or this procedure go for it you owe it yourself and your in great hands.
