Best Thing I’ve ever done for myself *

  • Name: Jehnifer
  • Age: 39
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: February 21st, 2018
  • Testimonial date: July 25th, 2018
  • Surgeon: Dr. Mario Almanza
Today marks 5 months from my surgery date. I struggled with shedding lbs, and it just got harder the older I got. I decided I wanted to be the best/healthiest me by the time I turned 40. Working out everyday and what I thought was eating right did not help me get the weight off. I was miserable in that body and had tried everything available to lose weight. I finally decided to take the leap and have the surgery. I am so glad I did. The hospital and staff were amazing! Clean! Understanding! Helpful! The experience was so much better than I expected. Dr Almanza was very professional as was all of his staff. I can not brag on this place enough. I will be going back for the skin removal that I desperately need now that I have lost so much weight. Be prepared to be amazed. I do not have one negative thing to say about the hospital or team. I made life long friends and have a better outlook on life all because of DR Almanza and his wonderful hospital and staff! I am in a healthy BMI now, I have more energy, a better lease on life, i don t hide from people anymore, I have confidence in me, I am down 52 lbs to date. With 3 more til my goal weight. It is not an easy fix, it is still a lot of work on your part, but Dr Almanza gives you a great tool to help guide you in the right direction. Very happy I made the decision to go to Tijuana and have this done.
