Anyone recently go to him? My surgery is April 12.

I'm scheduled for May 6th with Dr Lopez. Janese is my coordinator. She just sent me the pre op diet today, I am not looking forward to 2 weeks of Protein Shakes and salad. But I guess it could be worse. 40 days to go, I'm super excited!

I would also love to hear feedback from his other patients.

I'm going April 26th. The pre-op diet isn't horrible. It just takes some adjusting to get used to it. You still want to aim for about 800-1000 per day. Remember LOTS of Protein is the key thing. The goal isn't necessarily to lose additional weight but to shrink your liver so that it's easier to operate on you. =) When I need a snack I grab a hard boiled egg or sometimes another Protein Shake. Everyone has their own preference on Protein Shakes. I originally went with the EAS AdvantEDGE because they have 17g protein. I also went to Unjury (http://www.unjury.com/store/protein/unjury-protein/unjury-starter-pack.html) and ordered the starter kit because I heard good things about their shakes. I personally love the chocolate Splendor. But they also offer a chicken Soup flavor in case you get tired of vanilla, Chocolate and strawberry. I've been doing the pre-op since Jan because of my high BMI. I'm down 40lbs so far!!

Great job on your weight loss so far. I've been drinking Premier Protein shakes from costco, 30g Protein in 11 oz. they're not bad. I hate the bitter taste other drinks have. I've just been getting bored of chocolate, I can't stand the vanilla ones. I've lost 10 lbs since December but I lost focus early February when my insurance denied me. I decided to just self pay cuz it wasn't worth it to wait another year to try for approval again. I'll have to see if I can get Unjury sample packs, I know someone who owns a Vitamin shop and he's always giving me samples of the different brands and favors, I just can't stomach them. Guess I'll just have to suck it up. What's a little gagging for a smooth surgery!

Hi Dr Lopez did my surgery in Oct. 2012 in Puerto Vallarta. Had no problems after at all. Dr lopez was great, he is very caring and you'll be in good hands. I would recommend him.
