    Wow! I read your story and am thinking twice now about having it done. I do have a question, when you got home and had all the problems, did your insurance cover this mistakes that this dr did In Mx? is there any recoarse to get your money back from this dr in MX.?

    * Dr. Yanez at Jerusalem Hospital Tijuana Mexico for Mommy Make-Over * Your post really helps others in making life decisions, thank you very much for you post. I had my gastric sleeve with Almanza Aug 13, 2013 and I want to get my mommy make-over in the summer of 2014 after I am at my desired weight. I know their are many reviews on Dr Almanza that is why I felt confident to have the sleeve with him and I am happy with the results but the I could not find any reviews at all on this Dr. Yanez so this information was very helpful to me. I am so sorry you are going through this and I pray that your revision goes well.

    What a nightmare. Thank you for sharing so others are forewarned. I went to Mexico - Dr Sauceda - and have great results with no complications. I realize ANY surgeon can have complications, but Yanez does not sound like a quality situation at all.
