About to hit goal! --- Dr. Aceves' patient

[Marisela 104]

I am a patient of Dr. Aceves. I had gastric bypass in March 2013, I am down 112 lbs and couldn't be happier. I am local so I have been blessed with having all my follow up appointments with him and Dr. Campos, they are simply the best. Care in the hospital is beyond excellent, had I not been plugged to an iv, I would've just felt like I was on vacation in a nice hotel. They both check on you 2-3 times a day, nurses are in there within seconds after calling them. All has been like a dream to me. I had minimum pain, I was actually off pain meds by the time I got home and did not need them, no nausea, no vomiting, no headaches, really, just like a dream.
One thing I love about their team is that they do not limit themselves to surgery, they hold your hand through the journey of reaching your goal and keeping it. I have gotten into the habit of running because of Dr. Aceves insisting I could do it, I keep telling him he has higher expectations of me, than I have for myself and he has proved he was right many times. I love the encouragement and constant support. If I had to do this all over again, I would go to him and his team in a heartbeat, they have by far exceeded my expectations in so many ways. I recommend them to anyone thinking about having WLS, they will change your life FOREVER!, I am forever grateful to them.
I have nothing but good memories about the surgery, even in the OR, recovery room, etc, they always make you feel safe and taken care of, I actually woke up to a nurse sitting by my side, watching me breath and waiting for me to open my eyes. If you choose Dr. Aceves, you will NEVER regret it.

Attached a before/current picture. Left is the day I went home from the hospital, and right is last thursday, 9 months post op!

Thanks to all for your kind words… yes, I am VERY happy, I had lost weight so many times before, but for some strange reason, this time I feel different, extremely happy and just feeling great every day!
