Picked up at the very friendly, clean, and european style Lucern Hotel at 7:30am
The van was new and clean, and rode over with 4 patients and their 4 family members. A 3-5 minute to a very modern looking clinic
Qucik paperwork as soon as we arrived, Nutrition Discussion for 15 minutes and weigh in, blood work and EKG within 5 minutes, and then taken to a very nice room with a flat screen TV, couch, and a very comfortable bed.
Put on my gown, took some pills, watched a movie on HBO until Dr Ortiz came in to talk. Great guy and his mom happened to be in the clinic also. You usually can tell a man by how he treats his mom. Made a couple of free phone calls in the room back to the states to let my daughter know I was doing good.
By 10:30 I was rolled into the OR, woke up by 11:15, and started to walking around by Noon.
I was discharged at 4pm, and walked around the hotel neighbor hood until 6. Had water and clear broth from the hotel at the property restaurant, and wave been on the internet since (wireless in the room)
My stomach area has a slight dull pain, but nothing to hardly mention.
Going back to San Diego in the morning to take in a movie, and stay there for an early morning flight the next day.
I met a guy from Florida at the clinic and he had the same sort of experience.
These guys have it going on!
