Any Dr. Guillermo Alvarez patients here?



Recommended Posts

I am headed to Eagle Pass, TX in July and then on to see Dr. Alvarez in Mexico for my sleeve surgery!! I have researched several Dr's for over a year before making my decision to go with Dr. Alvarez, however he was my first choice!! Would love to hear from anyone that has been to the same Dr. I am looking to loose over 150 lbs! I'm 5' 8" tall and 340 lbs! I'm so ready to begin my wonderful new journey.

I will be there July and I'm very excited!! My mom keeps asking me if I'm worried or scared but I don't feel that way at all.. At first I thought I would because I'm going to Mexico but I have a very happy and excited feeling!! I'm so ready for July to get here!! Congrats and good luck to all of you!

Actually, I fly on the 11th and my surgery date is the 12th. Even though I hear and read nothing but terrific things about him, I'm sill nervous about the surgery.

I am 15 days out of surgery. Did great. Love the staff and Dr. Alvarez of course!! We drove to Eagle Pass from South Carolina. It was a long trip but certainly worth it!!! You will do great.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
