Went off without a hitch (07/13/2015)
I had gastric bypass performed in 2005 and it was great for the first 6 years or so and then the weight started to creep back. I had been considering the lap band over bypass for a couple years but in Canada it is so expensive (and not covered by insurance), I found it hard to justify. I had heard o... * read more.

great experience (07/09/2015)

The next day I went to the hospital for my surgery. They did my blood work and other test to make sure everything was okay with ... * read more.

Don't second guess your decision (07/09/2015)
I as many of you battled weight issues for 30+ years. As the pounds added so did several health issues. Not until the 4th blood pressure medication was added did I take a long hard look at myself. My first grand child was on its way and I couldn't walk 20 paces with out being winded. I made the call... * read more.

I was treated like royalty from beginning to end. My Dr. Almanza is the BEST, My nurse Alex is the BEST, the staff was great.... * read more.
The real thing. (07/08/2015)
Everything went as planned as far as the surgery. It was a rough start with nausea and vomiting, but after getting through that part it has improved dramatically. I have stopped taking my blood pressure pill and my last b/p was 113/78. I am still within my first week post operative phase, so I am su... * read more.
