Topic: RE: Post care after VSG

Thank you CHAZ1966. I am really excited about my surgery. I have to admit that from the moment I found Dr. A my mind as been at ease. I was just wondering about people that had the surgery and what was it like afterward. But it seems like even afterward you are treated like family. Thanks again for your reply.

Hi.. did you go to Dr. Jeorge Green cuz I'm scheduled with him the 23rd of this month.. you can't find any reviews on him unless it's under Medical Tourism and naturally those are all good...

Hi Everyone

I just had VSG with Dr A on 10/14/2017

HW-220

SW-209.8

CW-200.8

The whole team is amazing !! I went by myself and felt safe and was very well taken care of . Endobariatrics takes care of EVERYTHING ... You will get a book and guide that helps you navigate your post op stages etc.. You can call Susan @ anytime and she gets back to you very quickly ..... Dr A is very humble approachable and really wants us all to succeed .. I did A LOT of research prior to choosing Endo and trust me this is the team you want to care for you ...

Please feel free to ask me any questions

Hi Missexpress410-

You will not be disappointed .... Dr Alvarez and his team give you everything you need to succeed in your post - op care . He goes over everything with you and emails are sent with each post op stage and what to do along with a guide and book ..... My primary doctor is the same way but you need to do what is RIGHT for you ... Please don't worry about anything with Endobariatrics they will guide you through it and are there for you for any questions or concerns you have @ anytime pre surgery , Surgery or post -op ..... I really can't say enough good things about DrA ,Susan , Brandi surgical and hospital team and the nurses in the hotel !!!

Topic: Post care after VSG

Hello beautiful people. I am scheduled to be sleeved January 12, 2018 with Guillermo Alvarez at Endobariatric in Mexico. I am excited to go after being denied by my insurance a few years ago to have it here in the US. Question for those who have had their surgery already? What kind of post care did you have? I am at the beginning stages of getting all my information and I haven't come across that yet? My primary is against weight loss surgery altogether. So I could still go and just have her disappointed in me. But I want to hear from others. What was your after care like coming back to the US? I have seen so much on Dr. Alvarez that I do not want to go to anyone else. I just want to know about after care after surgery with Endobariatric. Thanks.

Topic: RE: An informative post about Surgery in MX.

Basically they approved me to have my pouch fixed and possibly take more intestine out. They ended up leaving my lower alone because it looked so good and just corrected my pouch. I'm glad they left the lower alone because it has been much easier than my first time. I'm able to eat more variety than last time. Weight loss is slower but it's also been 18 years since my first surgery. No reflux though. Not one time!
