My life has changed since I had my sleeve done.My health is now in good conditions,7 months ago I was consider obese and had high blood pleasure,border line diabetic,high cholesterol and taking medications for all this health problems.Now I'm only on a 5 mg dose for my blood pressure and is the only medication I take and my doctor has told me I will soon be off of that too.I don't have anymore joint problems and can walk "the mall now" without hesitation.After trying every diet known to man and having a gym at home without result.I decided to have WLS.Having WLS was the best decision and investment I have made in a long time,it has given me my health and life back. Im now a happier person more outgoing and have gained my self-esteem back after loosing 75 lbs and still loosing.I went from a size 24 to a size 10. Talk a about one sexy Great grandmother :D I Can now enjoy my grand kids and great grand kids.And my life with my husband once again

All the staff that took care of me were great,gave me assurance and made feel like i was Important to them.I give them 100% in hospitality.Everyone was very caring and professional from the minute you walk in the door till the minute you are dropped off at the airport you are their #1 concern.

If you are ready for a new lease on life go to the Jerusalem Hospital and find out for your self what you have been waiting for all this time.
