Question:
Did you have WLS at the Miami H.O.P.E. Center ?

I'm considering WLS at the Miami H.O.P.E. Center, and I'd love to hear from patients who were operated on by Dr. Verdeja, Rabaza and Gonzalez. Who was your doctor and would you recommend him? What about the hospital, did you have a good experience?    — vitoria (posted on June 2, 2004)

HI, I HAD SURGERY WITH DR. RABAZA. THEY ARE KNOWN AS THE DREAM TEAM IN BARIATRIC SURGERY. I WOULD ABSOLUTLY RECOMMEND THEM. THERE IS A LONG WAITING LIST, BUT YOU NEED TO BE SURE OF THE DOCTOR WHO WILL BE OPERATING YOU. I HONESTLY HAVE ZERO COMPLAINTS! HE SAVED MY LIFE!

I had my surgery with Dr. Rabaza. He is the best of the best. Great experience. No pain, no problem, no complications at all. These doctors are so caring and they really know their business. Dr. Rabaza is spectacular! I will recommend him in a heartbeat. My hospital stay was only three days. South Miami Hospital. Great staff, great attention, awsome nurses. I never had any surgery before this one and I really did not know what to expect. But I can tell you that everything went so smooth, without any delays and everybody seems very sweet and knowlegeable. Good Luck with your journey. It is well worth it.
