I knew I needed to make a big change. I had achieved all my goals in life and I still wasn't happy. I hadn't been happy in my own skin in a very long time! I didn't realize how truly unhappy my body image made me until I came to the decision to have this surgery. Once I decided it was the right thing for me there was no turning back. It felt right! I was very impressed with the services all around. The site made things easy to organize from afar. The support team on here was amazing and I loved the texting option. They made this very scary process easier. I had a great experience and found the whole thing to be well organized and safe. The most important thing though was I knew where to ask the questions, and I got my answers! I felt supported!
I am a medical professional so I was judging things right from the start. I was very impressed with everything. The facility was clean. The staff was professional, friendly, respectful, comforting and helpful. Dr. Almanza did an amazing job and I am so happy with my results.
This surgery is life changing! It is not an easy thing to do, but then the best things in life are never easy to obtain. It took dedication and commitment and it changed my life! I lost my goal weight of 50 lbs in 7 months. I am happy and healthy. I have a new born confidence that reflects in my personal and professional life. I am happy and driven and ready to take on the world.
Thank you Dr. Almanza and your wonderful team! You lifted the weight of the world off my shoulders and now I am free!
