Dr Alvarez In Piedras Negras



Recommended Posts

I want to share my experience with Dr. Alvarez in Piedras Negras Mexico. First, let me say I am a registered nurse and have been for 12 years. I have had 9 abdominal surgeries in various hospitals. This has been the most positive experience I have ever had anywhere. Dr. Alvarez is amazingly intelligent, caring, and what a bedside manner! The hospital staff are wonderfully professional and pleasant, no fast rush in and out of my room, I don't here the sigh of impatience when I push the call button for assistance that I usually get in the states. This hospital is clean and the staff practice excellent standard precautions- I see lots of hand hygiene going on.Best of all, I am in no pain! I have had some nausea but they promptly medicate me when I ask and he medicine is very effective.

I have been treated like a valued customer instead of a "gastic sleeve in room 101", if u know what I mean.

I would recommend Dr. Alvarez and his crew without reservation to anyone looking for a surgeon in Mexico.

I was sleeved by Dr. Alvarez on April 28th and he is wonderful. I am very happy and my sister will be sleeved by him late June. She was very impressed when she went with me. I would recommend Dr. A to anyone. I am doing great. Down 21 pounds since surgery.

      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.
