Good experience overall (05/02/2015)
I'm currently 3 weeks out, tomorrow. My experience in TJ went as well as could be expected. WLA kept up great communication with me. Dr. Almanza did an excellent job on my surgery. I experienced gas pain and nausea after surgery until about a day later. The drivers, especially Oscar, were Sw... * read more.
Dr. Almanza is a skilled bariatric surgeon. He gave me the successful VGS that I paid for. (05/02/2015)
Dr. Almanza, Dr. Lopez and the main RN name Alijandra all did their jobs well. Dr. Almanza isn't going to baby you after the surgery. I was in pain. But RN Alijandra (Alex) and her assistant took care of me in my weakest most vulnerable phase post op. She helped me get thru the pain and on my way to... * read more.
Finally--Slender and Loving Life! (05/01/2015)
I was overweight and had serious back problems. I had two options, limiting my activity and taking pain pills, OR losing weight and taking much of the stress off my back.

Gastric Sleeve (04/30/2015)
If you`re doing the gastric sleeve and can afford it get you`re gallbladder removed also. I`ve had such bad acid reflux and heartburn since that sometimes its either drink or eat. It`s also hard to stay hydrated with the heartburn as you can only drink so much at a time. Other than that this has bee... * read more.
Couldn't be happier (04/30/2015)
Before surgery I was ashamed. Ashamed of how bad I had let myself go, ashamed for my husband that his wife was so apparently not taking care of herself. I often went out in "workout " clothes and no make up.
My highest weight was 232 lb (5'5"), now 6 1/2 months later I and down 72 lbs, weighing in ... * read more.
Awesome! (04/30/2015)
First let me say that I am so glad I made this healthy choice. I too was a little skeptical about using Dr. Almanza and going to TJ, but after doing much research and reading tons of testimonial, I decided to go for it.
Please don't worry about anything, they take awesome care of you and the Hote... * read more.
