My surgeon was Dr. Alberto Aceves and my Pre0Op patient coordinator was Nina Eguia. She's super sweet, and comforting. She even came in to meet with me while in the hospital. :) The hospital is super clean and I would recommend all of them over and over again.

My surgeon was Dr. Almanza and my Coordinator was Melissa Bracker - would absolutely do it all over again exactly the same way I did it this time - Dr. Almanza was amazing as a surgeon and as a person - the entire staff at the center was amazing. Melissa even came and saw me after surgery! It was quite a great surprise!

I never wanted for anything. Great experience - can't wait to go back and visit :)

We used Alma at Ready 4 a Change she was great. We also just got back from TJ and Dr. Garcia and the Hospital MI Doctor were also great. We couldn't be happier with our experience and the level of care we received. We highly recommend Alma, Dr. Garcia and the Hospital Mi Doctor if your thinking of going to TJ. Good luck!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
