Dr Juan Pablo: Saved Dr Mike's Life Empty Dr Juan Pablo: Saved Dr Mike's Life

Dr Mike suffered a heart attack and sustained head trauma on June 18 in Chapala. Bob's quick actions in getting Dr Pablo to the scene saved Dr Mike's life. Dr Pablo performed life saving surgery to stop the bleeding from two severed arteries. Dr. Pablo is a world class physician.

In speaking with our family, medical personnel in Phoenix, AZ complimented the advanced medical care available in Guadalajara.

Thank you to Bob and Dr Juan for saving my husband's life. Dr Mike leaves Chapala tomorrow for continued medical care in Phoenix.

Dr. Juan is my wife's and my doctor. We have been impressed with his concern and quality of care. He makes our doctors NOB seem like uncaring, money grubbing, SOB's.

Probably, because most of them are. Kudos to Dr. Juan. Have never heard so many positives about any doctor at lakeside in over 7 years here. chico

I'm shocked at what happened to Dr. Mike and am so pleased to hear that Bob and Dr. Juan Pablo were there to save his life.

Having had more opportunities than I would have wished to have contact with medical professionals in both the U.S. and Mexico, I can unequivocally say that the Mexican medical care is "caring", rather that being obsessed with a bottom line for their group practice. Something went very wrong in the U.S. at some point, and it is no wonder that their hospitals are way down the list for a "first world" country.

Haven't been to Dr. Juan Pablo, but he definitely sounds like one of the good guys.
Hope Dr. Mike is able to move here soon in good health. I met him, and he is another of the good guys.

Get well soon Dr. Mike, we miss you. La Vida, take care of yourself too.

Thank you for the kudos LaVida, thanks to Candace, Cruz Roja and special thanks to your husband for staying so calm while every one else wasn't (and that's what probably saved his life)! We're looking forward to your move lakeside and trust he will heal quickly. Dr. Mike is a special guy and you are obviously very special lady, your community awaits.

And thanks for the free lunch offer Fearless, saving lives and rescuing damsels in distress is all in a day's retirement but one does hunger. And thanks ya'll for your kind words, Candace and I appreciate it.

Good job, guys. JP's my doc too. He's the best diagnostician in the area, I believe.
