Dr. Alveraz

It is better to do a pre op to shrink your liver plus it helps to prepare you for life after surgery. My pre op was 10 days but I did 14 just because I wanted my liver to be shrunk. I wanted my surgery to go really well and it did Dr. A is a wonderful surgeon!

For the person that asked' date=' he is through Endobariatrics.com not alighterme.[/quote']

How much was he? You stayed at hotel in SD after? How many nights in hospital did you stay and was it an actual hospital or clinic?

Thanks!!

You stay at a hotel in San Antonio, Texas after surgery. To get to Dr. Alvarez, they cross the border at eagle Pass, Texas. The hospital is older and small, I believe they do other surgeries there and they deliver babies there. There was one born each day I was in the hospital. It is not a strip mall surgery center at all. You stay in the hospital for two days.

He charges under 9,000.00 for everything, surgery, hospital stay, meds, hotels and transportation to and from San Antonio. You pay for the flight there.

It is very safe to cross the border there, we had no issues at all.

I'm in Eagle Pass, Texas! Surgery tomorrow and I can't believe it. But i'm ready to get it done and go home. My sleeve buddy is interesting and we have a lot to chat about which really helps with nerves. Well, wish me luck!

@allnewme surgery went great! No complaints.... Dr. Alvarez was the best decision I have made in a long time. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. I'm 4 days out and have already lost 7 lbs, so excited!!
