"My name is Karina and I am from New York City . I went on September 20th, 2016 and had the Gastric Sleeve done with Dr. Guillermo Alvarez. I am doing very well, I'm about 5 weeks Post Op . A couple hours after surgery I was up and walking around and only had very little pain. The cut that caused the most pain was the one that they took the stomach out of. It did hurt a little bit for a couple weeks after the surgery. But that is all to be expected and everyone heals and tolerates pain differently. I never once threw up after my surgery.
I had such a wonderful experience Dr. Alvarez and his team of doctors and staff were excellent. I was nervous about coming to Mexico by myself but I knew I had chosen a fantastic doctor. The entire Endobariatric team has been extremely helpful, patient and knowledgeable about the process. I recieved superb care while in the hospital and had minimal discomfort... I even went for a massage and a facial at Endo Spa 24 hours after surgery. Dr. Alvarez and the rest of the team were available during the entire process for concerns and questions, and still are once you are home. I had been debating for about 2 years if I wanted to be sleeved. After my experience I wonder why I waited so long, ZERO regrets! A big thanks to the entire Endobariatric team for giving me my new healthier life!! I would highly recommend the surgery and YES, Mexico was safe!!
God Bless You!!!!
Muchas Gracias Dr. Guillermo Alvarez
