May not be PC but most of us around here call him Dr. Scary (because of the way he usually dresses).

What do you mean PC Bob? Dr. Raymundo is an excellent physician and is very knowledgeable and highly respected. He likes to show his physique off,
and he normally will take his shirt off to bare his chest and show you he hasn't an ounce of fat on his abdomen. He does like wearing those 70's John
Travolta outfits and he can get away with it, even if he is over 50! | Quote: | Originally posted by durrelllrobert

The Alice's restaurant in
Arlo Guthrie's song is located on Skyline drive just off highway 84 between Los Altos and La Honda. It was named for Alice M. Brock, the orginal

So let me see if I have this pictured correctly. A bunch of retired gringos, some with gray haired pony tails, some with beer bellies, some dressed in
clothes bought at the local street stand, some in shorts and thongs with faded military tatoos go to a buffed out old Mexican doctor dressed in 70s
polyester disco dance club outfits to buy narcotics?
Photos please!

?Well, in some quarters it would not be Politically Correct to refer to an excellent, very knowledgeable and highly respected physician by a
descriptive term based on the scary way he dresses. Of course, in Orange County where PC was invented, you would never walk into a Doctors office and
be greeted by someone not wearing a shirt and with skin tight pink pants.

The overriding reason for Mexico's changes in the over the counter drug consumption had nothing to do with pain killers or the drug wars. They finally
woke up the huge abuse of antibiotics.
As you may well know, frequent use of antibiotics will lead to them no longer working in your body.
Historically, Mexicans ran to the farmacia for penicillin and Z-pac or whatever, whenever they felt a sore throat or had the sniffles. The results of
this massive overuse was especially dangerous for young children.
I applaud te Mexican government for putting an end to such abuse.

You're correct in that none of my drugs are pain meds. On that subject, last year after my heart surgery my surgeon, cardiologist and primary MD each
asked me if I needed pain med. I could have hoarded quite a supply but only accepted enough to get me through the first couple of weeks.

Kurt, I have to be creative. BTW, I have 5 stents AND a collateral I grew on my own, so no zipper yet; but do have a compression fractured spine
that makes fishin' a little tougher than it used to. Good going with your new tubes; ENJOY, and rip some lips !!

I thought your PC was short for Pain Control, but didn't think I was correct. He's cool, Dr. Esquer. We all must be tolerant of differences in
personalities and individuality. | Quote: | Originally posted by durrelllrobert

No he isn't a pusher for sure. I myself have never gotten pain medication from him or any other physician in Mexico, and only for two dental
procedures in the States about 5 years apart. I have very bad nausea if I take vicodin or any other opioid medication. I did have an ER physician
offer me Vicodin at Grossmont Hospital over 10 years ago for a urinary tract infection, but I told him I didn't want it due to the side
effects. | Quote: | Originally posted by mtgoat666

He's not scary at all. He's a very compassionate man and very friendly. He could be classified as offbeat, but who cares? Take a selfie and post it
and I'd like to see it! Would you say you look any better than Dr. Esquer or some of the gringos that are his patients? He is there to serve the
community. His clientele is largely Mexicans and SOME Americans. | Quote: | Originally posted by SFandH

All I can say is that anyone buying antibiotics at a local farmacia should really beware of what they are getting.
The Mexican government absolutely made antibiotics controlled for the reasons I mentioned.
So, if you walk into some storefront farmacia, you will really not be getting what you think you are buying.
Buddha guy, try and go into a Walmart or a Costco, or any major store and buy antibiotics over the counter.

Hawood, I was an EMT, I do know the last resort is antibiotics, and even in the U.S. antibiotic PRESCRIPTIONS are at an all-time dangerous high, so
preach to the doctors. I was stating fact, they're still readily available at all Mexican farmacias.... the Mex. Gov't busted pain meds, not Keflex.
Tha's all, dude.
