The best decision of my life (12/20/2012)
I knew I needed to do something about my health and the cost of my medications. I have been a Diabetic for 16 years now and have had to use a insulin pump for the past 8 years. With the cost of health insurance going up and the lack of prescription coverage was going to break me. My stock pile of in... * read more.

Just got home last night on 12/17/12 and my surgery was less than a week ago. I had a Lapband removed and a revision to the Gastric Sleeve at the same time. Dr. Almanza is incredible and in my opinion the top surgeon in the world when it comes to this procedure. I have absolutely NO PAIN today and I... * read more.
Way overdue ! (12/17/2012)
My husband passed away in 2008 and I ate through my depression. I tried several diets but I always seemed to gain the weight back :-( After seeing how well others had done, I researched the "sleeve" procedure.

I had no idea how fast I would lose weight, I lost 30 the first month, 20 the second month, 20 the third month, and looking forward to see what happens this month.

Its time for a change.... (12/11/2012)
Hello,
My name is Ray Woodward! I will keep this short and sweet. The Hospital was VERY CLEAN (a couple of girls had to switch rooms while we were there and I heard the workers even cleaning the walls and door). Dr. Almanza did a great job with my surgery.

Best decision I ever made! (11/30/2012)
I was apprehensive, at first. My wife had her surgery four weeks before I had mine. When she came back and survived ... well, I had to do something about my own weight problem.
I was a hefty 314 lbs. Morbidly obese!
Dr. Almanza and the staff at Jerusalem hospital were all very warm and hospitab... * read more.
