I just had my second surgery with Vive Plastic and im very happy with my results from both…read moresurgeries. A special thanks to my coordinator Melissa she was attentive and helpful every time I called her. My doctor this time was Dr.Grano and he check up on me before and after my surgery and answered all my questions and gave me the results that I wanted..I plan on seeing him again for my breast surgery.. I highly recommend Vive and Melissa:)

My experience at Viva Plastic Surgery Recovery Home was extremely disappointing. I would never…read morerecommend this place to anyone, not even my worst enemy. Before booking, they were very reassuring and made everything sound professional, safe, and like I would receive proper post-surgical support. They will sweet talk you in the beginning, but once your surgery is over, you are vulnerable, unable to do much for yourself, and they already have your money, the level of care and communication changes completely. Before my surgery, I was very clear with Vive that I needed assistance during my recovery. I explained that I had previously experienced complications after a breast surgery, including collapsed lungs from doing too much physical activity too soon. I specifically told them about this because I had been instructed to avoid lifting or straining during my recovery. I was reassured that I would not have to worry because they would help me and that I would not be expected to do any lifting or strenuous activity during my first few days. However, during my first night at the recovery home, there was a shift change between the morning and evening nursing staff. When I needed assistance getting up to use the restroom, I was told that I could do it myself. Instead of receiving the help I was told would be provided, I was given a walker and expected to lift myself from the toilet and bed on my own. Keep in mind, I had just undergone arm liposuction and had almost no strength in my arms. I was in extreme pain, and it had not even been 24 hours since my surgery. Expecting me to lift myself during that time was not the level of assistance I had been promised. The care I received was not what was explained to me before booking. At one point, I asked the nurse for toilet paper because there was none available. I was told they did not have access to it because it was locked up after the housekeeper left. I was left without proper sanitation and had to wait until the next morning. I also asked if my gauze could be changed before going to bed because I was leaking through my faja and pajamas. I was told it would be done in the morning instead. I immediately informed management the following morning about what had happened, but instead of addressing my concerns, they dismissed my experience and justified the nurse's actions by saying they encourage patients to be independent. There is a significant difference between encouraging independence and failing to provide necessary assistance to a patient who is less than 24 hours post-op, in severe pain, and who had clearly disclosed prior medical complications before surgery. A recovery home should prioritize a patient's safety, comfort, hygiene, and health. Unfortunately, my experience was the opposite. Once payment was made, I felt like the concern, communication, and quality of care disappeared. I would not recommend this place to anyone expecting professional, compassionate, and attentive post-surgical care. Warning to anyone considering staying here: Please do your own research before trusting this recovery home or the surgical center with your health and recovery. I am sharing my personal experience so others can make an informed decision. If you have any questions about what I experienced, you are welcome to contact me at astridsalgado1999@gmail.com. I have retained photographs, invoices, emails, text message conversations with the coordinator and staff, and other documentation related to my stay. I am willing to share the documentation I have so others can better understand my experience before making their own decision.

This doctor is amazing he saved my husband's life . He figured out the problem that no one else…read morecould

10 out of 10. Location Name: Hospital Guadalajara - He was recommended to me by family members…read moresince they've gone to him for years. They love him bc US medical system overall takes their time in testing, mis-diagnosing due to not paying attention enough, etc. I needed medical attention and medical results ASAP so I took their recommendation and went to him. The hospital he is in is super clean and I was laughing bc one observation was that no matter where you go within the hospital it smells so nice. It's not the usual sterile smell you smell in a hospital, it's a relaxing scent. Mind you, if you come here, it's an all-day event. This hospital and Dr are very detailed and will want to get to the root of your problem that same day, so blood work, scanning of some sort and even surgery can happen that day, depending on what is diagnosed. They don't mess around in finding and fixing so brace yourself with the same mindset when going in. . If they can't fix same-day, they'll get you to the right direction to do that. - Dr. Virgen was so personable and positive and definitely in the details. He made a person like me who hates going anywhere medical, at ease and calm. He listens and is incredibly knowledgeable. He takes time to thoroughly go over the results of each test. Mind you, they do tests that while it's targeting the direct need, they also detect other things going on in your body. What I love is that he doesn't just give the issues but he educates you on the item and goes through a precise resolution plan for each. You walk out at the end of the day knowing the pain points, if there's anything else you need to be aware of, your treatments plan and your meds. Things to know for non-fluent Spanish speakers: This is in Mexico but even a person like me, who can speak day-to-day common Spanish but doesn't know how to speak medical terms in Spanish, most staff know at least some English, some fluent and can switch whatever machinery to English instructions if CT Scans, etc. Dr. Virgen is not fluent in English but did very well in his English and I spoke what I knew in Spanish. I wouldn't recommend coming here if you don't know at least some Spanish only bc if that's the case, there may be a struggle only bc all forms are in Spanish and not everyone that works there knows English so if they ask questions or you have any, there may be gaps in communication. I highly recommend here and Dr Virgen. It's nice to know that some of his family members work here too. I know I'll be back here on a regular basis
