At first, I was terrified. On our way to El Paso, I was wondering what had I gotten myself into. All the patient facilitators were amazing from the beginning to the end and answered any questions I had and were there to calm my fears in the time before I left. We got there the day before my surgery and I was shaking I was so scared. I didn't know how the communication was going to be. We walked into the hospital in Juarez (which is really really nice by the way) and the staff immediately made me feel welcome. Some of the ladies checking me in couldn't speak English but they put the translator up on their computer and we were able to communicate that way. They took me to my room and immediately started all the preop tests. That was a wow because I'm used to waiting hours for tests to be done. They let us go get something to eat after tests, we came back to the hospital and slept for the night. I was the first in surgery the next day. I was so scared, my blood pressure was through the roof. They kept telling me to calm down and just breath and that everything was going to be OK. When I woke up, I was back in my room and the nurses stayed on time with my medicines. They made sure I wasn't in pain or nauseated. The whole time I was there, everyone was extremely nice to me and my husband. We never felt out of place, we never felt like we made a mistake. We never once regretted our decision to do this. The doctors were awesome and informative. They answered any questions and they took care of me. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would definitely do it over if I had to
