Probably like most of you upon learning about Jerusalem Hospital- I was a little sketchy about the clinic, and it's staff. After reading endless reviews, watching videos on YouTube about the clinic, and countless Google searches I made the decision to finally go ahead and go through with the surgery. We arrived the day before, and did all of our pre-op's etc. The next morning we were picked up at the hotel, and I was the first for surgery that morning. All of the staff were extremely nice, and helpful that morning- They could tell how nervous I was, and they did EVERYTHING they could to help me get through it. After waking up from surgery I was nauseous- not much pain (surprisingly),and the nurses went out of their way to help, and check-up on me often. I am 7 months Post-Op, and couldn't be happier with the way everything has gone! No complication, the incisions healed well!! I am down almost 70 pounds! Dr. Almanza & his staff are wonderful! I would definitely recommend them to anyone that is thinking about having the surgery!!! ( Actually- a friend of the family was considering the surgery, and after she spoke with me she had it done at Jerusalem Hospital)
