  • Surgeon: Dr. Mario Almanza
It has been 8 months and I have lost 95 lbs. I have new energy, new ambition, and a new zest for life. I work in health care, and I know that pain and disease make a person very different from who they want to be. (Or think they are). Reality is that you don't know what you are missing by not being healthy. My goal was not to be skinny, or a certain weight, but to be healthy and not spend my whole life thinking about what I should or should not eat or when and when not to eat. Now I have time to get things done. Thank you Dr. Almanza you have saved my life.
