Dr. Fernando Barinagarrementeria Aldatz in Queretaro, Mexico

Dr. Fernando Barinagarrementeria Aldatz is located in the Hospital Angeles de Queretaro.

I got in to see him in about one week. The visit was 800 pesos. He never once made me feel like I should leave. He chatted and asked me all kinds of questions.

Once you make the appointment send some info to him by email. Then phone to see if they got it.

I sent him reports and the hospital had a bit of a computer issue on that day but no one knew where it was.

The receptionists are nice. If you call they may tell you it is his personal email (which it is), so they can’t tell you whether the doctor has received or not.

Tell them to ask him or you’ll waste some time. You might have to phone back but it’s a much better way to get the most from your visit.

For sure, if you have had MRI’s done, bring the CDs.

And just so you know what he looks like I’ve attached a little picture. He is an absolute doll. And his English as good as mine.

Let me know if you need help or info.

Cuidate mucho (take care)

Corrective Lenses for Cataract Surgery- No Question Anymore

Well, I just got back from a very well respected optometrist’s appointment. He’s been in Edgemont Village for about 25 years so there’ll be no arguments. First of all, I want to say that he actually is a very nice man. Hmmm. A doctor with compassion, a sense of humour, a good bedside manner. I should be suspicious.

Dr. Thompson is super. He was recommended to me and I highly recommend him. I explained the situation to him. Had cataract surgery. Was supposed to have a corrective lens put in. I didn’t feel that I could see better so I really wanted him to tell me that I was wrong. That my prescription had changed.

No such luck. There was almost no difference between my existing glass prescription and my new vision. No 20/20 in the corrected eye. Exactly the same…well a little worse in the right eye but so little that it didn’t warrant a new Rx. Left eye the same.

So now I have to ask myself this question: Who got my lens? I paid for a corrective lens. Assuming one was ordered – and maybe I shouldn’t assume- then someone got my lens and I got theirs. They decided against corrective lenses and now someone has something they didn’t want.  Actually that lens was made to match my eye against its deficits, shape, etc. So what kind of vision does that person have?

And now I have to decide what to do about it. I’m going to give Dr. Chubb one last time to tell me the truth. Last time I asked him if there was even the smallest possibility that a mistake had happened during surgery and he refused to answer me. I won’t let him refuse again.

I’ll keep everyone up to date after I see him late in October.

Still Having Problems

So I don’t know what is going on but I’ve been having a tough time. I spent most of the time standing or lying down because sitting hurt. I also iced quite a bit.

Sohiel was here today cleaning and I did what I could. Perhaps that was too much. I slept for an hour and my body was really tired.
