I had a gastric sleeve done at Jeruselem Hospital earlier this year by Dr. Alamanza and I must admit that I was scared. I was met at the airport by their driver and delivered to the hospital Everyone at the hospital was wonderful and explained everything that was going to happen. I had surgery that day and was taken to the recovery house the next day. The recovery house was in a secure, gated community and there was always at least 2 other nurses to take care of us, do our dressings, give our medication and provide for any other needs. The recovery house staff was wonderful! They were kind, concerned and willing to do anything we needed. The whole experience was much better than I expected. I have had no problems and my weight is down 30# in the last 2 months. I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone who wants to have it done. I went to work the day after flying home from San Diego!
