English speaking nurses in Mexico? - Plastic Surgery

English speaking nurses in Mexico?

I'm travelling to Mexico for plastic surgery at Reevert clinic. I've already spoken to the doctor and am confident in his English but i'm a bit concerned about communicating with the nurses because my Spanish is not good. Does anyone have any experience of plastic surgery in Mexico? Were you able to communicate ok with the nurses? I'm sure it will be fine it would just be nice to hear from someone who has experienced it before

Jessica, may I recomend you speak to the staff at Reveert again and tell them your concerns. I had surgery with the Reveert clinic in Guadalajara..(there is more than one clinic in Mexico I think?)... and the staff were wonderful with me. Most of the nurses spoke basic english, enough to communicate with and there was only one time we had trouble understanding each other and the nurse got a different nurse to help translate. My stay was totally comfortable and i couldn't have asked for better care. Even the doctor came to check on me straight after surgery, something that wouldn't have happened at home and the clinic were always happy to answer my questions when I returned home after the op. I don't speak any Spanish and had no problems.

Please ask me any other questions you have..I was so nervous before I travelled because I was going alone but I'm so happy with the results I'd do it again.

I forgot to add, I spoke to the clinic frequently before I travelled to ask questions about what to bring to wear after surgery etc and the staff answered all of them. If they didn't know the answer they would find out and call back. Excellent service
