My way back to health *

  • Name: Diane P
  • Age: 57
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: December 11th, 2012
  • Testimonial date: December 27th, 2012
  • Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
I was recently put on drugs for diabetes and I'm looking forward to being off of them. As my weight goes down - so do my glucose readings. My Dr. is confident I'll be off my meds soon. My surgery was very easy, little pain and no nausea, felt great and went back to in just 5 days. Can't thank Dr. Almanza and the great staff enough for taking such good care of me and my new friends that I met at the hospital. The care at the hospital and at the hotel was great, you never felt alone or uneasy. Going to another country for surgery wasn't an easy choice but one I'm glad I made. I'd enjoy keeping you all informed of my progress, this is just the beginning.
Thanks so much
