Yo1 Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 Dra Camacho is difficult to get to see because she is so busy. I see her sister Paulina in the same office and have been very happy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakeside7 Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 I guess it's the person who does the surgery, do the aforementioned do the surgery? There are many good clinics in Guadalajara Many years back I had both mine done at the same time, super guy who I can't remember only that he also worked for IMSS. At that time they had 3 machines, 1 was broken, 1 reserved for children and a "old method " machine. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, also the brother-in-law (I think Paulina's husband) has a day at the Chapala office, he did one of my surgery follow-up checks. Dr. Claudia performed my surgery (the machine did most of the work under thier control) and sister Pauline was right at her side. The mother also is an ophthalmologist...amazing family!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracias https://www.chapala.com/webboard/index.php?/topic/90708-dr-juan-garrido-cataract-surgery/&tab=comments#comment-690047 I found this doctor MUCH more thorough. He also offered a wide range of lenses, not just one. If it is cataracts you are concerned about check him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had professional experience with all the Ophthalmologists in Ontario in a past occupation so I like to think I know a good one when I see one[pun intended]. Claudia did my wife and my cataracts and several friends as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 I've been going to Ophthalmologists since I was three. I tried three here before I found Dra. Camacho. She knows her stuff... and I purposefully told her nothing about my past history to test her. She knew exactly the problem in five minutes of examination. To make a long story short, I now have a small cataract growing on the only eye that works. She did not rush in to do surgery right away. She said we will watch and wait until there is no other option but the surgery. I have faith in her and her abilities... so do several of my friends. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
