Hi There!
You will love the people at Jerusalem! You are making a great move! I wish you all the luck in the world. I have to tell you, since going to Jerusalem Hospital I have sent four people to have weightloss surgery. I will warn you, when you drive up to the front door you are beside an Office Depot in a strip mall. My first thoughts were...What the Heck? But as soon as I got inside my concerns were addressed, the place is clean, and the people are wonderful! I have prayed to an answer to my weight issues for many years and God pointed me in their direction! I am totally satisfied! Who is your patient coordinator? Are you taking someone with you? Pack gas x strips and pack some chicken/beef broth cubes in a zip lock baggie for the airplane ride home! You will need something warm on your stomach.

Please check out Dr. Almanza in TJ, Mexico...they are wonderful there. Went with my BFF and was sleeved on June 10, then took my husband back on July 15. I have gone from 292 to 239 since my sugery. I was so impressed with everyone in Jerusalem Hospital. Friend me if you want to chat! -
No regrets yet! My surgery was last Thursday...not much time under my belt. Day one after surgery I thought, "What the HELL have I done," but after that I am doing ok. I was just really sore and weak. Of course that is to be expected! good luck!!

I just got home yesterday from having the procedure. If you are traveling for the procedure, I suggest taking some boullion cubes with you for the way home. I flew from San Diego to Little Rock and had such a had time finding anything I could have besides apple juice. Be sure to take the gas x strips, not pills! They will be your new best friend! Good luck and I will be looking to see how you do after surgery! -
