Very disappointed
Kate, I agree with you on many facts. I think what is offensive and something we dealt with on the LapBand board was when someone who hasn't been that surgeon posts negative comments. Someone who just recently joined OH and has only posted one other post and has no profile. I think we all have to remember this is a public forum and nothing stops anyone from posting anything. I could sign on under a different name and post all kinds of ugly and negative things about any surgeon without any bases for my words - this is not only unethical in my book, but also very unkind to those who may be seeking surgery from that specific doctor. There are so many wonderful doctors out there who do amazing work with our wrecked bodies (or atleast bodies like mine!) You're absolutely right, I won't ever look like a Victoria Secrets model AND I never expected to. Dr S set my expectations as he does with everyone who has lost massive amounts of weight - it's an improvement, not perfection. I am so happy with the improvement that I do not miss perfection!
You're not grumpy, you're realistic! Thanks for posting! And have another glass of wine! It's the holidays!

You all must get paid very good go convince people to go to him.. I think its very sick and underminding. People use hard earn cash and should get the best quality work. I know folks get commission because evrrytime I look up someone is popping on everybody post referring,and its the same women who pictures are set to private,lol wow
Nope! No commission! Not one cent! He is a very ethical man! And so am I!
I have my pictures private because I feel it's my business who looks at my naked body! The entire world is not welcome to those pictures! However, they are not private to my friends! They are private to someone who has no profile set up and who just joined OH. I'm not stupid, I need to protect my privacy!
I refer others to Dr Sauceda because he is the best and because he's worked very hard to help me be as "normal as possible" after what I did to my body! I spent my hard earned money and I am extremely pleased with my results. You can say whatever you want, but you haven't been to him and really have no first hand knowledge. I've had 3 surgeries with him and I will return for more! As I mentioned above, even if I had all the money in the world and could go anywhere I would go to Dr Sauceda! His staff is just is the icing on the cake!

And BTW, I will be forever grateful to Missy and Jessica who introduced me to Dr Sauceda. He's been a blessing in my life and I cannot ever thank them enough for coming here and posting their experiences! It's people like those here who come and give their stories of good and bad so that others can make good choices. Missy had a website and she posted daily from Mexico. She wrote of her experience and posted her pictures. I read every word. Jessica did the same. They both were instrumental in changing my life forever and I come here daily to pay if forward!

Oh! You mean the same women who are on this forum daily sharing words of kindness, wisdom and encouragement? How dare those terrible women discuss their achievements and positive experiences and give advice to others.
I wish you good luck on your search for... whatever it is you're looking for! And I hope that when you start that journey you're lucky enough to experience the same type of support the people in this forum give each other every day.

I'm not the best "speller" on the planet (is that a word?), but it's hard to be convinced of the intelligence of an argument when someone mixes up your and you're.
I just have trouble listening to that kind of "advise" lol

You know Guys it really doesn't work to argue with some people. It's obvious whomever this person is - they need to learn how to write and communicate.
It's just unkind to say mean things about someone who has done nothing to them. Kate has done nothing to warrant ugliness.
I am not going to respond any further to this person's posts. I stand behind Dr Sauceda, his work, his staff and my recommendations. IF this troll wants to have any credibility - this troll needs to seek a dictionary and learn a little about the English language.
