I am 2 weeks post op and down 14 pds. I feel great :-). The hardest part for me was the pre op diet. Dr. Almanza and his staff were wonderful. Surgery went without a hitch and when I woke up in recĂ´very l was in no pain. I walked a lot that nite to make sure I didn't have all the gas pain some talk about and I guess it worked I had a lot of bloating but no gas pain. The post op care I received was great and the staff was very friendly. I had a great group of people being sleeved around the same day or so I was and we had a lot of fun a few of us even went shopping in tiajuna the day after surgery and all that walking did us good no one in our group had any problems. Thank you Dr. Almanza and staff I have recommended you to friends because I know they will be safe in yours and Gods hands and have a great experience as I did.
