  2. Happy 55th Birthday shame on you!

  3. 2 years has passed since you registered at VerticalSleeveTalk! Happy 2nd Anniversary rere50!

  4. HEY, I was wondering about dr. almanza, i see alot of comments about him good and bad but im not sure what real and fake or people just being down on going to mexico, i went to mexico for my band with dr zaptta and want to have my band removed and get the gastric bypass, dr zapatta is 13,000 and dr almanza is 7,500, any help would be great, i hope your still an active member!

  5. Shirley, have your read the infection posts? What is Dr. B doing about this? Would he consider going back to using the hotel? Yikes, I cannot refer anyone while this is going on. Please answer on private message.

  6. I thought I read in one of your posts that you went to Dr. Almanza. Could you share with me more about your experience? I am scheduled for 1/13/10. Thank you in advance :)

  7. I will say to you akindofmagick that it was bad here, but everyone is trying now to move on and the Mod's have been really great. Susan is usually right here to spank us if we get mouth over load butt syndrome, so don't go away, just work with all of us. This is a good place, we all just want to learn from each other, we don't care who or where anybody went. Some of us just want to learn about our surgery, some have more experience, some are new, and it dosn't matter where you are in your experience, we are all different, and we can learn from each other. There are a few chosen ones, but mostly we just over look them or report them. But please stay, if someone gives you grief, let Susan know, she will help.
  8. Good Morning Cajun, Who is bashing who, this came to me via email, did I write something wrong? It is always hot there, and in the winter it get chilly, I didn't think that was wrong. Sorry
  9. Way to go Carolyn and MNB, I am so glad you are well and you had a great time. MNB, I will tell you, it is either freeze or bake there, who would have thought!!! I will sugest heaters in the rooms for you. Keep us posted, OK? we are all excited to see how your journeys (your's and Carolyns) are moving.
  10. Hi Stephen,

    This is Shirley, Can you email me a copy of the pictures? We want to put them in our book. How are you doing? I was told you had a rough time, and I didn't get to speak with you.

  11. Way to go Stoongal!!! Did I tell you or what!! To a Happy, Healthy you!! Cheers
  12. Susan,

    Can you tell me what everyone is talking about? They are refering to certification? The onlt Certifications we know about are the ones you buy in Mexico, Are they refering to FACS? That is AN American thing.

  13. This is Shirley,

    I am sorry about your experience. I wish you would have shared this with me before, so that I could have taken care of this problem. If you have any problems in the future, please don't hesitate to call me. You should still have my number.

    Complications after Sleeve Surgery

    MNB, if you ask for previous patients emails, they will send them to you. They have a large patient base, so you can hear direct from their patients. I have FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE with this group. Dr. Almana did my sleeve over a year ago, I am still here. No infections, and no problems. You really have to pick and choose who you listen to on these boards. Some people have never been to the Doctor you are discussing, and they will try to scare the willies out of you.
