Wow what can I say, I would not ever use any other surgeon or facility than Dr Alvarez! My girlfriend and my niece went to him both have done amazing. In less than 3 months I have lost 49 lbs and over 30 inches. Went from a 22 to size 14. I haven’t even started the real weight loss period yet! Dr Alvarez and his staff were amazing. The facility is state of the art. My daughter went with me she is or was diabetic at 35. She has done equally amazing! We felt so comfortable from the start. He and his staff are so welcoming and put us all at ease from the start. There is no doubt he IS a master surgeon. None of us who had surgery there have had any complications. He is strict because he wants you to have a great experience and meet your goals. Lol like a good parent. He still checks up on us and we use his bariatric app religiously I can call or text anytime and get an answer quickly. Full access to him and his staff. You don’t get this in the states believe me! I had a Hiatial hernia pretty bad and he repaired it at no charge. You will not ever be sorry for using this amazing surgeon and you will never be sorry for making this decision to change your life!

Dr Alvarez gave me my life back in an easy, 30 minute surgery. His hospital, EndoBariatric, is easily the cleanest, most modern and incredible hospital I’ve ever experienced. The bilingual staff were kind and caring. They run the hospital like a well oiled machine - everything is done perfectly and the moves from hotel floor to hospital floor and back are done perfectly.
The Endospa experience was incredible too - highly recommend! I had very little pain the 24 hours post op. More discomfort than anything.
I followed his post op instructions to a T and I’ve had zero complications. I have lost 51 lbs so far and feel like a different woman! I’m a better Mom, Nana and ME! I look forward to loosing another 50ish lbs now!
Dr A is a great surgeon and a very nice person too! I can’t say enough good things about him and my experience at EndoBariatric!
Very professional and caring. His facility was the cleanest I’ve ever been in. The hospital staff was great and professional. Dr. A and his staff are the best. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone wanting the surgery. I wish I had the surgery earlier in my life. Great experience.
Feb. 27, 2023Dr. Alvarez and his staff were great. The Endobariatic facility is second to none. It was by far the best Medical Facility I have ever been to. Dr Alvarez personally meets with you the night before surgery and everything runs very smooth on surgery date. I personally did not have any pain or discomfort. I can honestly say this is one of the best choices that i have made for my self. Thank you Endobariatric Team.
Feb. 22, 2023Dr. Alvarez is a knowledgeable caring doctor. His facility and staff are some of the best professionals I have ever had. The facility is impeccably clean. Never once did I feel unsafe for any reason. His staff made me feel comfortable and any reservations I may have had about the surgery immediately vanished. Dr. A and his staff answered any and all questions before, during and after the procedure. You can tell he takes pride in his skill and services. He treats you as an individual so you don't feel like a person just getting weight loss surgery. He's personable and genuinely cares about YOU. When emailed, he and/or his staff respond in a short time frame. All communication and customer service are top notch--which is hard to find. I could not recommend a better doctor. He is truly a God send for people that have obesity concerns and need sleeve surgery. He is THE BEST.
Feb. 9, 2023I am a healthcare provider that works in critical care and often see all the rare albeit life threatening post-surgical complications. For that reason, I was very particular when it came time to select a surgeon and hospital. I have no doubt that I picked the best surgeon and hospital. I would let no one else touch me or my family. In fact, my daughter is now scheduled for surgery with Dr. Alvarez. I can not recommend him highly enough. He truly is changing lives one sleeve at a time.

I had the absolute best experience with Dr.Alvarez and his staff. The facility is beyond nice. I felt at home my entire stay. All the staff including Dr.A made us feel like family. I am currently 12 weeks post op and have healed beautifully. I was in no pain after surgery. I couldn’t imagine a better experience.

I was sleeved on October 17, 2022. Admittedly, going to Mexico from the Seattle area was a bit daunting. However, an aquaintance had a wonderful spa-like experience at Endohospital so I did tons of research and decided to move forward with Dr. A and his expertise. NOT ONE REGRET! A wonderful experience frm start to finish. I lost 20 pounds on my 3 week pre-op diet and another 45 since then at 12 weeks post-op. I had some hiccups post-op but after sending emails, Dr. A was extremely responsive and helped with useful solutions and I’m feeling fantastic! I would recommend Dr. Alvarez again and again. Thank you for helping me regain my confidence and get my life back!
Jan. 15, 2023Dr. Alvarez and his team at Endohospital were absolutely amazing!!! I had the best experience. Surgery was flawless and my recovery was seamless due to the care and preparation his entire team provided. Every person I met was so friendly and helpful! Dr. Alvarez is a very caring provider and you can tell he honestly cares for each and every one of his patients. I would definitely recommend Dr. Alvarez and his staff to anyone considering the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy!!
