OCSlim 63 Posted October 13, 2014 I'm still debating between two doctors, but I'm leaning towards Dr. Alejandro Lopez at Hospital Vida. He does a single incision sleeve Gastrectomy, that allows for faster healing and less scarring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He does a single incision sleeve Gastrectomy, that allows for faster healing and less scarring. That was one of my other choices as well. It really does seem like the best route for recovery and less scars. Good luck on your decision!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
