Tommy Removal *

  • Name: MikeG
  • Age: 58
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: March 21st, 2018
  • Testimonial date: April 9th, 2018
  • Surgeon: Dr. Mario Almanza
Dr. Almanza and staff were great. The surgery went fine. Last minute change in hospitals was alarming. On the day I was living my home to go to San Diego the person from the team who called me about it, stated it was because the Dr. was being observed by the certification agency. When I got to Mexico the man who took the rest of my cash payment stated it was because of construction on the hospital was not finished on this hospital. Who is telling the truth?

The hotel bed was as hard as a rock. I was going to stay two nights at the hotel, but I left a day early.

They told me to grind the antibiotic pills up, before I take them. NO WAY. They were terribly, nasty tasting. I threw up the first time I took them. DO NOT GRIND them up.

It has been 16 days since surgery and I am down 22 lbs. 38 more to go.
