- Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
This is the best decision I have ever made in my life. I suffered from Insomnia, Sleep Apnea,High Blodpressure but did not take medication for it. I have battled weight gain since I was 18 years old and tried every diet in the universe. Nothing seemed to work. I also had swollen feet and ankles and severe pain in my lower right leg. A friend of mine told me about this surgery and it only took me a little bit of research and I had made up my mind. My surgery went well no complication and I have had a great recovery since then. It is three weeks ago and I have lost 25 pounds so far and I am doing really well. The pain in my lower leg is gone, my Insomnia is gone I can now fall asleep again which I have been waiting for the last 20 years.
So overall I am extremely pleased with my decision about the surgery and am very proud to call me a sleever now. Dr. Almanza was great and all the nstaff at the hospital was so very much helpful and nice. The nurses at the hotel also deserves praise as they were there when you needed them. The hotel staff and drivers were also wonderful. So overall a very good experience.
Thank you to all.
