- Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
I was very nervous about going into another country to have a surgery that would undoubtedly change my life...and change my life it did. This journey has been nothing short of amazing. I went to Dr. Almanza and had the gastric sleeve on April 24, 2013 and as of this date I am down 60 pounds. My only regret is that I did not do it sooner so that my health would start improving sooner. During this last month, I had an appointment with our family doctor and I am pleased to announce that I am no longer on blood pressure meds and he took me off my medicine for acid reflux that I have been on for several years. That's what I call getting healthy. I am also enjoying the compliments from family and friends, but I especially enjoy the ones from my husband. He has been so supportive of my decision. From the time I contacted Weight Loss Agents about this procedure until the time I boarded the plane for home, I always felt safe and secure with Dr. Almanza and his competent staff. Everyone was very nice and always offering help if needed. If you are condidering this procedure, I would highly recommend Dr. Almanza.
