Best Decision I Ever Made! *

  • Name: LeAnn
  • Age: 40
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: January 11th, 2018
  • Testimonial date: April 17th, 2018
  • Surgeon: Dr. Mario Almanza
The whole experience from beginning to end has been very pleasant. I was contacted multiple times before the surgery to see if I had any questions or concerns. I was promptly picked up at the hotel and the driver is very courteous. Upon arrival to the hotel we were given a 1st floor room as we would need it after surgery. Surgery day was not stressful at all. After surgery I received top notch care for almost 4 days. After arriving home, I started following my diet and the weight just keeps falling off just like it should. I have had a few calls asking about follow up care so I have not felt alone at all. Eating small and learning to chew the food correctly has been a bit of a challenge for this teacher who is used to eating fast while doing numerous things. But overall I am doing great and am just mad I waited so long to do the surgery. I went from a size 20 to an 8 already. I feel GREAT!
