Skin removal etc in Cuba
Hi Guys
Well I am starting to sit down and decide on where and when I will look at getting my surgery. I am thinking I want to wait the full 12 months before I do anything - so won't be doing it until Jan 2018.
I have heard some great things about a clinic in Havana Cuba - but can't find any recent posts about it. Apparently a lot of Canadians go there - and a lot from Quebec in particular.
A coworker of mine went there 10 years ago - and highly recommends it.
Does anyone know the name of "the" clinic I am talking about - and have any info regarding contacting them and booking?
Also - I read on a a very old posting - saying that OHIP will not cover us when we get home if there are any complications form surgery if we choose to go out of country - is this true?
Thanks in advance!

that's what I thought too - but it was an old post from a few years ago that I was reading -

is the recommendation now a 12 month wait before plastics? I thought it was 2 years, but I would love it if it were sooner
