  • Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
I had no apprehension about having my Bariatric procedure. From the moment I was connected with the intake staff through to my surgery I had great confidence in the system and process I was entering.

The nurses were great and the hotel was very nice. It was reassuring that there were nurses around the clock for your care. I made life-long friends and have felt very supported. There is ample literature available online to guide you in your eating for the first 2 months as well. I would recommend this as part of the personal research prior to surgery - it take the post-surgery mystery out of the equation.

I didn't do this for any particular health reason. I was just tired of struggling with food and my weight. For those with medical conditions, I would highly recommend the gastric sleeve as a means to regain your health.
