Surgeon: Dr. Almanza

Whoot! Whoot! I am down 48 pounds since my sleeve surgery 10/3/14 and its the best thing I ever did, wish I had done it years ago instead of the lap band. It is totally different, no side effects, I feel normal and am now able to eat small normal meals and lose weight! I highly recommend the sleeve if you have a chronic weight problem, it will change your life.

I have never been afraid to go to Mexico for surgery, both times I had excellent doctors and outstanding care. How ever weight loss agents was the best, I love their online patient portal and how they manage your care right from the very beginning. Every thing was easy to understand and follow before and after surgery.

From meeting us at the SD airport, accommodations and hotel staff, Dr. Almanza and his staff, the hospital and medical personnel I received outstanding care. The nurses were awesome, a special shout out to Nurse Sessy! The facility was clean and comfortable and most of the staff is bilingual.

My husband, and my friends husband who accompanied us loved Hotel Ticuan and dining, and were treated royally as well and had a good time exploring TJ.

For me the whole experience was a piece of cake, the post op care from the nurses at the hotel was exceptional, from the beginning to end they took care of every need. I was up with in hours of surgery and the next day exploring TJ with friends and family. I was so relieved to have the band out and to not feel hungry I cried with JOY!

Having the sleeve has set me free from a life time of struggle, I still don't feel hungry, the weight is coming off and I feel healthier than I can ever remember. Tons of energy, and loving my new body!

I love what WLA has done for me and have recommended them to my friends and anyone who asks. So far a friend had her band removed last month with WLA, another is getting her sleeve tomorrow Jan 6 with WLA, and another friend is booking her sleeve soon with WLA. I am so excited for them and can't wait to see their results! I have shared my experience with anyone that asks about my weight loss, perhaps I can pay it forward and help them too!

P.S. 25# to 30# more to go! Hopefully all gone by my 60th birthday March 8, 2014! The way it is going I am pretty sure I will make that goal, will keep you posted!
