Hi there! I am not for sure if you have seen this, but here is a link to the hotel that Dr S. puts his patients in if you do an inclusive package with him. It is like 100 yards from the clinic and from his office. From what I have heard, he makes daily visits to the hotel to take care of his patients, change bandages, etc. It also has a free full breakfast buffet every day and also happy hour on Tuesday and Thursdays with free appetizers. There is an Applebees next door and a shopping mall close by, and I heard that Applebees delivers to the hotel as well. Dr S also said that there is a free shuttle service at the hotel to take people back and forth to places within a 10 mile radius. I just thought I would share the info with you and hope it helps.

What is amazing to me is your scars are so straight and symmetrical. They look amazing for 3 months out, just like Diane's. Even 1 day post op, they look fantastic! I have been researching and researching, and I still feel confident going to him even if everyone is not 100% satisfied. Every person's body is different, and so many factors go in to play when the Dr has his patient on the table. He has to decide on where to cut, what not to cut, work more on a certain area than another, how big of small to make an area, if complications arise, etc. Everyone that I have spoken to has still said that they would recommend him again, and he is the only Dr that I have found that everyone has said that about. I went in to this knowing that I may be that one that doesn't get the perfect result we all expect, but at least I know he cares enough about his patients to do revisions if I need them for free whereas most Dr's will not. That says a lot about a Dr's character and his work.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
I have gone in and added all those *****quested to be added (I think)
I just want to make clear a couple of things. Some people have in their heads the idea of perfection and I can tell you that you DON'T get perfection...I still have stretch marks from my *awful* pregnancies ( I had twins and then went back for 1 more) LOL... I still have a little bulgey thing when I sit but I AM 100% HAPPY with MY body ( flat as a board when standing!)...the work Dr. Sauceda did is AMAZING, the scars are thinner then what they appear in the pictures, they are TOTALLY symmetrical. He did a remarkable job. SKILL wise I dont know I could have done better paying top dollar in the USA or Canada.
The BEST part of all of this whole journey for me was the MAN...not the DOCTOR. Dr. S really helped me out after surgery ( about 6 weeks post op) with my "FAT BRAIN" I posted about it on here - you know where you still FEEL fat and yucky...He replied promptly as always and talked me through it...really offered me his honest advice and guidance. He isnt a hack and run doctor. The first night I got into Mexico I was alone, and we didnt finish marking my tummy until late and he wanted me to eat something so he came for dinner with me...and really just set my nerves at ease and made me feel like a friend NOT a number or paycheque.
I didnt PLAN on having an anchor cut TT - I PLANNED on a regular TT...he KNOWS his job, he explained my options, he GUIDED me he INFORMED me to make the best choices for ME. He technically measured my collarbones, triangulated my chest to decide MATHEMATICALLY what size implants I needed to get a good balance. ( First time I have SEEN TRIGINOMETRY used in real life) He just was THE BEST....
I didnt need to know more then I had a SKILLED, professional surgeon who took his time making sure I was happy, healthy and that the procedures would give me the best body I could have. Do I WANT to be a size 6...yes...STILL. but I think his work is fabulous. Would I do it again...YES YES YES.
To everyone who is struggling with the decision...please write to those who have been there - we can help clarify the thoughts and issues ( if we have been in the same place as you) and I know personally it is the only way I can truly thank Dr. Sauceda for giving me ME back...I get chocked up even typing this...I dont know how to clearly express to Dr. Sauceda what a gift he gave me...I can be naked WITH the lights on, I can enjoy ME again, my hubby can enjoy me again...I can LOVE the person who I felt I had lost so many years ago to obesity.
GOODLUCK everyone...as always if you need information PLEASE PM me, I will always do my best to answer ANY and ALL questions.
