Reputable Plastic Surgeon In Santo Domingo

[sunny2be]

Dr. Roberto Guerrero

My sister and I live in Miami and we both made an appointment to get the tommy and breast lift after havng our children. two years ago we coordinated everything over the phone wit him and he send his choffer to pick us up at the airport. We stayed at the hotel that he recommended with a double bed room. He did a very good job and it was more economical than in the USA. I am very proud to have an opportunity to know this well educated and professional Doctor. His family should be very proud of him specially his daughters....He indicated to us what to do and not to do. I heard about his set up in Puerto Rico, but those are low lifes looking for money that is all.
I hope as well as all my sisters that have being operated by him that the family stay strong and together you should over come this minor problem.

Those looking for PS...take note that Dr. Roberto Guerrero was arrested in PR for practicing medicine without a license only a month ago. The claims were well documented and do NOT appear to be from money grubbing unfortunates.

I also recommend you check out a website specifically for people looking to travel for plastic surgery:
PSJ - PSJourneys.com - Plastic Surgery Journeys.com

The above website is really quite full of interesting material--facts, links, personal stories, etc. I have no ties to any of the above sites nor to Dr. Guerrero.

Good luck!

un cirujano pl?stico sin licencia

El galeno dominicano atendi? a una paciente en un hotel de Santurce.

El m?dico dominicano Roberto De Guerrero Daniels es escoltado ante una jueza que le impuso una fianza de $1 mill?n. (?ngel Rivera)
Por Jos? A. S?nchez Fournier / jose.sanchez@elnuevodia.com

La Polic?a intervino ayer con un cirujano pl?stico de la Rep?blica Dominicana por practicar su profesi?n sin licencia en Puerto Rico. As? fue luego de que el galeno ?montara cl?nica? en un hotel de Santurce y le extrajera l?quido del abdomen a una paciente, quien sufr?a de serias complicaciones m?dicas luego de que la operara en Santo Domingo.

El m?dico, identificado como Roberto de Guerrero Daniels, fue acusado de dos violaciones al art?culo 9 de la ley org?nica del Tribunal Examinador de M?dicos (TEM), la cual proh?be la pr?ctica de la medicina en la Isla sin la debida licencia.

Seg?n la informaci?n recopilada por la Polic?a, en febrero pasado De Guerrero acord? hacerle a la esposa de su primo una abdominoplast?a, una liposucci?n y una reconstrucci?n de senos por $5,000 en dos intervenciones quir?rgicas.

Seg?n estipularon las partes, la mujer, quien es natural de Puerto Rico, le adelant? $500 y luego viaj? a la capital dominicana en febrero pasado, para la primera operaci?n.

El m?dico, sin embargo, le hizo los tres procedimientos de un tiro. La mujer alega que durante el procedimiento perdi? mucha sangre y que contrajo tres bacterias que la dejaron en un delicado estado de salud.

?La perjudicada nos cont? que le tuvieron que extraer l?quido del abdomen en tres ocasiones, antes de viajar de regreso a Puerto Rico?, indic? ayer el teniente Eddie Hern?ndez, del Cuerpo de Investigaciones Criminales (CIC) de San Juan, uno de los oficiales que investig? el caso.

Pero la condici?n de la mujer no mejor? y, ya que se hab?a operado fuera de la Isla, su seguro m?dico no cubr?a las atenciones de seguimiento necesarias.

Fue entonces que De Guerrero viaj? a la Isla. ?A finales de febrero la cit? a un hotel de Santurce y le extrajo a?n m?s l?quido?, explic? el teniente sobre el procedimiento m?dico en una habitaci?n de hotel.

El procedimiento no fue la soluci?n. En febrero, de acuerdo con la paciente, fue ingresada en el hospital San Pablo, donde le descubrieron las bacterias. Necesit? 10 operaciones para curarse.

?Debido a la seriedad, el caso se consult? con el fiscal C?sar Mercado, y ?l decidi? someter (cargos), por violaci?n al art?culo 9 de la Ley 22?, continu? diciendo el teniente Hern?ndez.

La Polic?a averigu? que el m?dico estar?a de visita en la Isla, por lo que solicit? una orden para su arresto.

Ayer, la jueza Vanesa Pintado Rodr?guez encontr? causa para arresto contra De Guerrero, y le impuso fianza de $1,000,000, en efectivo.

Contra la paciente, la juez tambi?n encontr? causa, por una violaci?n a la Ley 22, pero los agentes dijeron que ella colabora con la pesquisa.

There are many opinions on cosmetic surgery in the DR. In my estimation, the biggest risk is not the competency of the surgeon but rather the nature of ambulatory surgery and post-surgery treatment and follow up. Being sent home or to a hotel room to rest after a major invasive surgery is not the smartest thing in the world. There is always a chance for complications to arise and the difference between recovering in a hospital room within arms reach of professional care and a hotel room with none is life or death for the patient

Your point is valid, but it should also be noted that conducting post-surgical recovery for plastic surgery at home or in a controlled non-hospital setting such as a hotel or spa is a growing trend in the US and other first world countries. As with everything, it is a benefit/risk vs. cost decision.

Obviously, facilitating a rapid response to a complication under these circumstances would be more problematic in a place like the DR. On the other hand, it would be relatively inexpensive to have a nurse or aide stay with the person during the period of greatest risk to monitor their status and facilitate further treatment if needed.

Sorry ladies but I cant understand why you would ever contemplate coming to a foreign country for plastic surgery etc.
Get it done at home where at least you have some chance of claiming when things go wrong.

 

[bronzeallspice]

Alot of people go to the DR to have plastic/cosmetic surgery because it's cheaper. But
I'd rather pay more to insure my well being in the US than to risk having it done some
place away from home. Sometimes what you pay determines the level of care that
you will receive.

I agree 100%. If it's surgery I will need anesthesia for, I want the best surgeon and hospital in the US, assuming it's not an emergency. I've traveled to both Manhattan and Philadelphia for just that reason.

I dont think its the country the problem.WHen you have a really good surgeon and good facilities.
I have a lot of friends that had surgery in DR....and very nice results after surgery.
We got bad luck choosing or selecting DR Guerrero. Very bad experience , specially for my friend that died after her surgery. He didnt gave a proper follow up on us...he just throw us away and never picked up the phone.
