devine.adon 49 Posted May 19, 2013 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. 3 Amanda D Greeson, zoey1176 and m. brack reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimberlygo 2 Posted May 20, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
