Best decision I ever made! *

  • Name: Johnny
  • Age: 44
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: September 5th, 2012
  • Testimonial date: November 30th, 2012
  • Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
I was apprehensive, at first. My wife had her surgery four weeks before I had mine. When she came back and survived ... well, I had to do something about my own weight problem.
I was a hefty 314 lbs. Morbidly obese!
Dr. Almanza and the staff at Jerusalem hospital were all very warm and hospitable, very professional. I was made to feel comfortable from the beginning to the end.
I had my surgery September 5th. I'd lost 15 lbs. from the fasting already, but I had no idea what was to follow.
It's been a wild ride. It's now November 29th and I'm down 76 lbs. A size 52 waist to a size 34!
I've had a lot of compliments and have been sharing the Jerusalem Hospital's website with anyone who has had interest in making a life change for a healthier lifestyle.
Hospital Jerusalem has helped me get my life back.
Thank you Dr. Almanza and all the staff who made this worth the ride!
