I waited 3 months to give this testimonial because I really wanted to be able to tell you how it went. I AM LOVING MY NEW LIFE - I HAVE LOST ALMOST 60 LBS SINCE SURGERY. I won't lie, it was HARD!!! Preparing for the surgery was not fun but I promise if you follow all the instructions your recovery will be so much better. Prepare yourself mentally and physically, but I promise it will be worth it. I thought the staff and Dr Almanza were very professional and the hospital and guest rooms were clean and accommodating. That being said don't go expecting a 5 star resort. Dr. Almanza and his staff have made it possible for you to get this surgery at a way discounted price, but to do so things were just adequate, although totally enough. If you take someone with you plan on figuring out meals and things for them. We used Uber Eats and it worked out great for my husband. Weightloss Agents was very helpful when getting all set up and made sure I had everything I needed to make my trip successful. I appreciate all that everyone did to help me on this journey and if you are on the fence about it I promise it will change your life in amazing ways!!
