A New Beginning *

  • Name: Rebecca
  • Age: 40
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: September 25th, 2015
  • Testimonial date: November 23rd, 2015
  • Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
From the time I arrived I was treated extremely well. Everyone was super helpful and everything they said in all the pre-op papers is exactly what happened. My surgery went very well. I awoke with no nausea or pain. All of the nurses and staff were extremely kind and helped in any and every way possible. Even back at the hotel, the staff and nurses were there if we needed them.
It was a great trip, and one that I believe saved my life. My beginning weight was 280 and I had extremely high blood pressure. I am happy to say that at two months post-op I have lost 40 pounds and my blood pressure is normal!!
Thank you to Dr. Almanza and his wonderful team for giving me my life back
