M!@ 320 Posted April 19, 2016 I did have my surgery in TJ but not through ALM, so may some one who has can chime in. I must say there my experience was AMAZING! I had no issues and was treated like a goddess. I followed instructions to the letter and healed nicely. Well wishes to you on this journey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moejoe27 130 Posted April 19, 2016 Almost went threw ALM for my surgery and heard a few horror stories! I decided to go with Bariatric Pal Team MX. I am so glad I did. Bill and Stacy were absolutely the best. I went with Dr. Illan. Amazing experience and can't wait to go back for plastics! You really need to call Bill!

smoothazz 72 Posted April 20, 2016 I went through ALM in January 2015. I didn't have any problems at all. Seeing the hotel was a bit of a shock. It seemed so unimpressive and old and was a moment of "oh my god what am I doing?!?!" But it was clean and the doctors and nurses were great. In hindsight, it seems like nothing. I had almost no pain to speak of, recovered quickly, and lost 110 lbs! I was very nervous at the time, but now it feels like a dream I had ages ago. Best thing I ever did for my health though.

ahuntersbride 9 Posted April 20, 2016 So their promise of 5 star accommodation is not so true? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smoothazz 72 Posted April 20, 2016 I think that must refer to the Marriott you stay at when you're not at the hospital. It is very nice. The hospital is fine, just not on par with what you'd expect at a surgery center in the states. It's just kind of old and small. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
