  • Name: Carleen
  • Age: 47
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: February 12th, 2016
  • Testimonial date: June 8th, 2016
  • Surgeon: Dr. Mario Almanza
Going to the doctor and hearing you have high blood pressure, borderline diabetic, high colesterol, knee pain and sleep ap was enough for me to take the big step and have weight loss surgery. I went with Dr. Almanza because he had the surgery so who would be better to do mine. I went to Mexico alone and was treated like royalty. Dr. Almanza and his staff are amazing! I cannot express how grateful I am for the surgery, I have lost 55 pounds in almost 4 months and have 15 pounds to go. I have since been taken off all meds and is feeling amazing. I am now running 4 miles 4 days a week and playing netball 2 days a week. I thank God every day for leading me to Dr. Almanza to do this surgery. I had ZERO complications, I follow the doctors orders and so far has been doing great. Thank you Dr. Almanza for giving me my life back.
