MGM how was your experience I was just on Dr Alvarez website

[MGM 140]

I went to dr Kelly but have read a lot of good about dr Alvarez too. I didn't feel unsafe, my 19 yo son went with me and I'm glad I did it. No regrets. I'm losing slower than average due to health history, but IM LOSING! 250 day if surgery 213 now. 265 before preop diet. It has its hard times, but if you are emotionally ready, it's sooo worth it!

I've read so many good reviews about Alverez and I'm considering. So how was ur trip back on the plane? Where did u have to catch to plane to and was it expensive?

[MGM 140]

It was less than $500 round trip. I flew to I think Dallas first than San Diego. Flight home was on...considering my flight back to New Orleans got cancelled because of hurricane Isaac. I did get to fly into Biloxi and my sis came and picked me up. Take a couple fixes if dissolving gas x.

What's your experience

[tommyd 125]

I was sleeved Nov. 5th by Dr Treen at West Jeff. It has been great. It has been the easiest operation I have ever gone thru.His staff is very good.

I'm one month out and have lost 30# since surgery another 30 prior to. I feel great about to start going to the gym. I just walk and play basketball as my exercise now.
