Easy breezy!... Agents were on the ball and worked with me every step of the way! They are beneficial resources, responsive, and thorough with the process... WLA made it so simple. Their method of keeping documents and checkpoints in order works well, and any questions are a text away. Simply sending a text message by phone or via the patient portal ends up in the same place, making it easy to keep up with correspondence... I would work with them again without hesitation and I have referred family/ friends.

Awsome experience... I am a registered nurse with a Masters degree and my surgery was flawless, no complications at all... I was 62 pounds over weight and since my July 13 2022 surgery I went from a 33 inch waist to a 27 inch waist in less than 3 months. The nurses were very educated and the care from them was outstanding...

No more medication! Auto-immune anything is never fun when your body is constantly fighting itself. I decided to have the gastric sleeve surgery so my body could deal with one less issue of carrying extra weight. The surgery was life changing for me. I am now a firm believer of how many ailments your gastrointestinal system controls in the body. Keeping a minimum amount of only healthy food in the body has healed many of the ailments I carried for years. I am totally off all medications for auto-immune, blood pressure, and cholesterol. While the surgery was instrumental in my recovery, routine Exercise and maintaining a clean balanced diet and only fueling your body with good clean food and is a contributing factor for having such great results. Thank you for the opportunity to share my story.

The hospital was clean, the people were professional, and the Dr. Almanza was amazing. The whole place ran like a well oiled machine. There was even a spa! I got a massage the day after surgery...

The surgery, before and after care as well as instructions that I received were beyond amazing. This company was a God sent and the simple fact that I was able to pick my surgery date, the cost was MUCH MUCH lower than anything in the US and that I was able to make small payments each month toward my surgery made this super affordable!.. 2 years since my surgery.I am down to 134 lbs from my starting point of 210 lbs and I have successfully kept my weight off for the past 2 years!

We were referred by another former patient that had a great experience and has lost more than 100lbs. Now my neighbor is considering doing the surgery later this year. I highly recommend Dr. Mario Almanza and I would trust this hospital with any of my closest loved ones.

Trust the process... I do know a handful of people who have gone through this process with Dr. Almanza they collectively know about 20 more people who have..literally. Nothing but great feedback about Weight Loss Agents and Dr.Almanza... The fact that the word of mouth referral is so abundant where I'm from is simply unbelievable. It speaks volumes. It was an undeniable force when making my decision... Anyone who's on the fence, once you get there and see just how big this really is, you will have piece of mind about choosing to do this abroad. Weight Loss Agents were available step by step, not only before (Pre-OP diet, travel and recovery prep) but during the travel process, (airports and transportation) and certainly after (via phone,email,text) weather needed or not... Quick and detailed responses and of genuine concern. It's a professional and nice touch... I would be next in line to recommend Weight Loss Agents and Dr. Almanza to the next person who asks. I am glad I did it, I would do it again..in Mexico..with Dr Almanza! I must say because of this recent experience through Weightloss Agents and medical tourism as a whole, I am considering other procedures abroad...who knew!?

Everyone one I came in contact with who worked with this company was nothing but professional and kind!... I would recommend Weight Loss Agents to ANYONE considering weight loss surgery... truly was the best decision I've ever made. I had a boyfriend before my surgery who loved Fat Samantha.

My insurance wouldn't cover the surgery so I decided to look at hospitals with the best price. I came across the ad for surgery in Mexico. "NO WAY", I thought. My Mom checked it all out and started hearing from different people about their great experience. She then started reading testimonials and decided to look into it further. I can't begin to tell u how much communication and info we received. We ordered passports, bought airline tickets, and scheduled my surgery. It was WONDERFUL from start to finish. All the drivers, nurses, bellboys at hotel, everyone was great. The hotel was great and the weather was great. For my Mom, it was like a vacation with me. She was with me thru it all and so far to date, I have lost 95 pounds. I feel like a new person! BEST decision I have EVER made!

I had 2 nieces that had the procedure done in Mexico and did great, so on a brainstorm I bit the bullet and took the first step... being an RN knew about more complications that could have occurred. But these doctors do several thousands of these surgeries and having the experience is a must... I do have medical insurance but it is more affordable when done in Mexico, plus there is no waiting to get procedure done and no psych evaluation. I also did not have to use all my sick time going back and forth to dr before the procedure... Yes the surgery was the right choice for me.

...I am a nurse, so I blew up WLA email with questions. Every question was answered to my satisfaction in a timely and professional manner (and I had their responses in writing). When I arrived, all went exactly as had been told to me. I scrutinized everything every step of the way. I even did a finger swipe of the OR floor - clean as a whistle. Most things were done exactly as would be done in a USA hospital. The things that were different were negligible. I made the right decision. I am 2 1/2 weeks post sleeve gastrectomy, have lost 20 pounds, feel better already than I have in such a long time and look forward to the years of my life that I have left.

Thank you for giving my life back Dr. Almanza/Dr Hernandez. I have heard many women that have had the surgery in the U.S complain that their surgery experience wasn't as pleasant as my own. Going to Mexico for this surgery was the best thing I could have done. My insurance failed me but thank god for these Dr in Mexico that are able to assist us when our medical system has failed us. I am back to me! I am down almost 80LBS and look younger at 45 than I did at 40. Thanks Again

"Fresh Start In Life." First off I would love to thank Dr. Almanza and his team for their awesome work.. I am over joyed with the results. I was miserable and very unhappy with my weight before surgery. Dr. Almanza made me a new healthier me. From 240lbs to 151 pounds. From a size 2x pants and a 3x shirt to a size 6-9 pants and a medium shirt. I am elated!! I feel like a kid again!! I haven't been this size in forever... Thank you, Thank you for a new slate at a healthy life.

What a lifesaving opportunity! Dr. Almanza gave me my life back. Everyone involved from booking to surgery were great! And friendly too. This is hard to admit, but I was 480 lbs... I took control, and learned how simple Weightloss Agents could guide me through this life saving choice I needed. They we're there for me through the entire process. I have absolutely no regrets. I get to live longer! And be here for my children!! I'm 5 weeks post-op, 72 lbs. down and my metabolism has kicked in and i'm finally enjoying life without pain!!! Dr. Almanza, Thank you! Weightloss Agents, Thank you and I Love You all! P.S. It's pretty cool when you realize your belly doesn't touch the steering wheel anymore :)

Best thing I have ever done!! This surgery has been life changing, not only because of the 100 lbs I have lost in 10 months but everything I have gained! I have gained confidence in myself that I never had before,I gained self worth, and I have gained self love. I can look in the mirror and not hate what I look like or hate the person I had become but now I see this amazing person that not only looks good but has some serious potential to do whatever she wants. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!

When I started from start to finish the weight loss agents were there for me the whole way through... I am 100% satisfied with them. I have recommended them to every body I talk to. The surgery part of it was just as good and successfully. I was very satisfyed they took great care of my wife and me awesome. The doctor and staff were knowledgeable and cool. They did exactly what they said they would do. As far as my success I started out 400lbs I now weigh 230lbs... If I could say one thing it is still a life changing experience so put your mind to it and trust the people they know what they are doing.

Almost a year after my surgery I'm a new person. I have no regrets. I feel healthier and more beautiful than ever. My transformation has been enormous. Last week I went to the store and was showing my ID to a discount and the cashier said I cannot give you the discount without the lady in the ID being present and I said I am the lady in the ID. Then, she said I need to see you drivers license and showed it to her and she apologized for not believing it was the same person just transformed after weigh loss. That made my day and once again proved to me that it was all worthy.

I had an amazing experience. I wish i had done this way sooner. Dr. Hernandez was wonderful. Surgery was fast and simple. The care received from the hospital to the nurses and Dr. at the hotel were superb. I got better care here than many of my friends and co-workers who had the same surgery done in the US. I am almost 2 months out and have lost 33 pounds. I have had no complications and am feeling awesome. I would say if you are looking at getting gastric sleeve don't hesitate and don't fear the stigma of Mexico as it was amazing.

Vanessa Zimmerman, Gastric Sleeve 11/10/2016 Read the full testimonial

My daughter and I went to Mexico on Medical Tourism and got the Gastric Sleeves done together. It was a great experience... Why fight the red tape in the U.S. to get a procedure done? We had been fighting in the U.S. for two years with no success. It was cheap to get the procedure in Mexico compared to the states... It was so easy and they make it as little stress as possible for the patient... I'm referring others who want to go get the procedure also. I am a nurse and these people do a wonderful job. Do it for your health you won't regret it.

Debra Reiling, Gastric Sleeve 12/19/2016 Read the full testimonial

My husband and I met a gentlemen by chance who had lost 118 pounds in 5 months and highly recommended Weight Loss Agents. With his raving review I researched their website then made the call that changed our lives. It was so easy! If you have researched any kind of Bariatric surgery here in the states you know there are about a million hoops to jump through and it can be very expensive. Within 24 hours we were both approved for surgery. We paid cash for our surgery but talked extensively about financing, which all in all that was a pretty simple process if you chose to go that way. We scheduled our surgeries 2 weeks later, but Weight Loss Agents kept in touch with us nearly every day to answer questions and prepare us for our surgery... We arrived in San Diego where Weight Loss Agents met us at the airport and drove us to our hotel in Tijuana, they had everything organized, letting us know what to expect every step of the way... We were 2 of 9 people having Gastric Sleeve surgery that day... The procedure itself was the easiest surgery I have had. The incisions are on the upper abdomen so I found it really easy to move around right away. I remember thinking the entire time, "this is so easy"... It truly is life changing, now that we are 2 months out and we are back to eating regular food, it's amazing to me... Together in 2 months we have close to 80 lbs. WOW!!! I would highly recommend Weight Loss Agents!

I'm so glad Dr. Almanza and the entire team in Mexico were my choice for Sleeve Surgery. Everything was better than hoped for or anticipated. Excellent care and attention. Facilities were great. Needs were promptly addressed. I had no worries while there. The care was so good... My life has already changed for the better. Weight Loss Agents was an excellent choice! Use Dr. Almanza, he did a great surgery and again a ace, A+ Team surrounds you the entire time in Mexico. I'm still in contact with fellow patients and we are all doing well and supportive of one another. Thinking about doing this? Do it!

Beth Sherman, Gastric Sleeve 10/17/2016 Read the full testimonial

My husband had the gastric sleeve done here 2 yrs. ago, and had amazing results...so I decided it was my turn... It's been 2 wks., and I've already lost 15 lbs. I've already stopped taking several prescription medications, for blood pressure and acid reflux. Yes, I want to lose weight to look better & feel better about myself, but my decision to do this was mainly for health reasons. I know getting the excess weight off will lower and help keep my blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and cholesterol in the normal range... Dr. Almanza & staff are very informative, caring, and helpful! They take such good care of their patients, at the hospital and after you go to the hotel. They have a nurse at the hotel 24/7 to look after patients after their 1 night stay at the hospital. Not once did I feel like a number, or unimportant to them! Someone was always there to answer questions or get whatever we needed. The hotel staff was great also! I have absolutely no regrets for having this surgery... a small price to pay to have a more healthy & happy future!

I never thought that I would be able to afford the surgery... I was elated to find that it was within my grasp through WeightLossAgents.com... Let me tell you, EVERY step of the way, WLA was there for me. Communication was very easy. I could text, call, email, or use the message board on their website. They were extremely responsive and helpful. There is always someone there to quickly answer your questions, provide direction, and always with a cheerful and encouraging demeanor... They care. They check on you every step of the way. I have to admit, I was a bit scared going to Mexico, but I am so glad that I did. They did have staff there that spoke English, and the hospitals were clean... I started this journey at 446.6 pounds. Today I weight 387.7... I already feel better. I am cutting back on my hypertension meds... My knees, back, hips, and ankles are already feeling the relief. And it has only been two weeks since my surgery. If you are asking yourself if this is worth it? It is. The years that are being added everyday to my life....a chance to see my kids grow up...it is worth EVERYTHING... This is your chance, folks. Take it. It is worth it. Please, speak to someone at weightlossagents.com, and allow them the priviledge of telling you more about it. They have been my friend, let them earn your trust and be yours.

Weight loss agents was answer, and I stepped out on total faith, these people lived up to the expectations, the treatment went over and beyond what I expected! The room was five star, the medical team was grade A and the after care treatment team was excepectional. I'm impressed and my journey has only just begun, since my surgery I lost 30 pounds plus and it's only been a few days. I would recommend these service and this selected groups of agents to anybody.

I cannot tell you how pleased I am with my decision to have the gastric sleeve procedure. My whole attitude and outlook on life has changed. When they say they remove the part of your stomach that tells you you're hungry (you know that awful voice in your head that never, ever stops telling you you're hungry?) it is no lie! That voice is GONE! Like really GONE! I can finally make reasonable decisions when it comes to food. I was 248# pre-surgery and today I am 168# - yes 80# lighter 8 months later... I eat REAL, full fat, full sugar, full flavor, food - just much, much less of it. :) I am so glad I chose to take this journey! In the top 3 of my best decision I have ever made! Beyond my wildest dreams!

I want to go out and do things I couldn't do before my surgery. I have been parasailing, I love going to the waterpark. Life is so much more enjoyable. Don't put it off any longer! I wish I would have had my surgery long before I did. I was scared but it was the BEST decision I have ever made. I still have more weight to lose, but I could have never lost what I have without my surgery.

Katelyn Sisco, Gastric Sleeve 06/04/2015 Read the full testimonial

I had many questions about medical tourism and traveling out of the country for gastric sleeve surgery. I am a nurse and really had done my homework... Everything was handled professionally and safely... My husband was also treated well and accomondations were made for him as well. It really was a mini vacation for us.... I never had pain or nausea. I am currently almost 7 months post op and am GREAT... my husband calls me the Energizer Bunny... I have added 20 years to my life... Like you my greatest concern was traveling outside of the country. But it was safe, clean and professional. I am a nursing educator so of course I paid close attention to infection control issues and safety. I found that the clinic far exceeded most of the facilities in our local area. I have NO REGRETS and would do it again. I only wish I had done it 15 years ago. Anyone that wants to ask questions or talk to me, I welcome your request. You can contact me at crlangel56@aol.com....

I did all my research and found Dr Mario Almanza... everything went smoothly and as planned. The surgery was so fast. The recovery process was in the privacy of your own hotel...

In one year I have lost 152 lbs. I am healthier and feel so much better about myself. I am now looking into the Mommy Makeover to help with this skin from the rapid weight loss but I have NO regrets.

When I started my journey I was at 248 lbs. it has been 7months since my surgery and I'm weighing in at 145. This was the best decision that I ever made for me and my family... I would say that they have a well oiled machine going. I didn't feel as far as the surgery went that the risks were any higher going there than staying in the US. My bariatric Doctor here was more than willing to go ahead and see me right after I got home. The photo I've included were taken 9months apart for work.

Sammy Epperson, Gastric Sleeve 08/10/2015 Read the full testimonial

I am so glad that I went with this and if I had it to do over again I would certainly get Dr. Almanza to preform the surgery. If you are thinking seriously about having some type of stomach surgery but you are concerned about going to Mexico, just put your worries aside. You will be in good hands with the whole staff and they totally know exactly what they are doing. One other thing to add. A lot of folks back home was uneasy about us going to Tijuana Mexico because they were afraid we would not be safe. Years ago that might have been true but we were actually all over the place and could not have felt any safer. Everyone was so kind to us and the people there go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Good Luck on your journey. You are in for a great, life changing event.

I would highly recommend this procedure and this hospital! Best thing I have ever done for myself. I only regret I didn't do this years ago. The price was fantastic compared to having it done here in the U.S. The care was the best I ever recieved while being hospitalized. Pre surgery they left no question unanswered and walked you through every aspect of the procedure . Going to Mexico was no big deal. Just minutes from the border. Safe area to walk around. Met some really fine people from the U.S. And Canada. If you feel trapped in a large body and it affects your happiness, DO IT. I'm so much happier from morning to night. I wake up and want to do things. I love hiking and its so much easier and less painful. People notice not just the weight loss, they say you seem more relaxed and happy.

I had to say that I was very leary when my co-worker told me about gastric sleeve surgery in Mexico. How could it be safe? How could it ever compare to the hospital that I work at? ...I can honestly say that throughout this whole process, I have NEVER felt alone, the staff at WLA are very informative... Surgery day was very organized, hospital staff were without a doubt some of the best caregivers that I have seen in my 20+ years of working in healthcare! Dr. Almanza... addressed all of our questions and concerns... also spoke about how he had the very same surgery 5 years earlier... he had actually been a patient (by the way he looks amazing!)...Surgery went very well...The next day up early and to the radiology facility to have my leak test, where they gave me the seal of approval-No Leaks!- I felt so good that I went out shopping that afternoon!... I can't be happier with this process from start to finish, I know that whatever questions that I have in the future, Weight Loss Agents will be here for me, they can be here for you too!

I went to Mexico by myself and was a bit nervous as too what I Would be getting. I figured it could not of been that bad as I knew someone else who had work done through WLA. To my amazement, things worked like clockwork. I was picked up from the airport on time. I was quickly put at ease when I met the other people who got into the van with me. The process was communicated and carried out without any problems. A person can tell that WLA has been doing surgeries for a very long time and has tweaked their system to a science. The procedure was virtually pain free....I expected way more than what I got. My only pain was dealing with some slight gas pains...

Tamara Caldwell, Gastric Sleeve 04/29/2015 Read the full testimonial

I was overweight and had serious back problems. I had two options, limiting my activity and taking pain pills, OR losing weight and taking much of the stress off my back. This decision was easier for me than for most people because four years ago I had taken my 19 year old daughter to Dr. Almanza for sleeve surgery and she lost ninety pounds. Although I knew I probably wouldn't bounce back as quickly as she did (two weeks), I knew that Dr. Almanza had done thousands of these surgeries and I wasn't afraid. I have gone from a size 14 to a size 6 and I look great in my clothes. I only wish these surgeries had been available when I was in my twenties. Don't wait! Life is waiting!

I am so happy with my results and I would do it all over again. I'm feeling great and looking great. I would recommend this to everyone.

...Dr. Almanza and his staff at the hospital are the best. They all made me feel comfortable. The drivers too were also awesome. The hotel was very accommodating plus I my room was very nice. If I had to do the surgery over again I would choose Dr. Almanza. I have been following the postop instructions and I must say I have no complications whatsoever. I am healing nicely. I have to deal with the fact now that I can no longer eat like a horse. I get filled up real easy plus none of my pants before the preop diet fits anymore. They are all too big for me. Also since the surgery I heard that I do not snore much nor as loud as before. My sleep apnea is being fixed... I saved a whole lot of money going to Mexico to have the surgery done compared to what NY and other states wanted. Thank you Dr. Almanza and the entire team. I am very grateful and it was worth it. I am looking forward to the new me.

...it's been 2 weeks and am glad I had it done. I've lost 22 pounds already. I encourage you to proceed with the surgery don't let mixed emotions hold you back because I think most everyone has them before surgery. Last but not least my blood pressure ran 172 on top most days before surgery now my blood pressure is normal everyday. I say my dreams have come true thanks to weight loss agents.

I really wish I had went through with the surgery several years ago when I first started thinking about it. I can't believe how easy it was. Very little recovery time for me. The entire staff was excellent! I'm an RN so naturally I watched everything that was done. I received high quality care that was as good if not better than I would have gotten in the US. I was up and walking 4 hours after surgery. Special thanks to Dr. Almanza and his staff for helping me to get on the road to a better quality life!

Rebecca, Gastric Sleeve 09/08/2014 Read the full testimonial

I would like to take this time to thank Dr. Almanza and his entire crew for making my gastric sleeve experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible... The entire staff, from drivers to nurses, Dr. Almanza himself was courteous, friendly and attentive. I had no complications and the pain was minimal. If you can handle an IV, you can handle this surgery!.. When I started my pre-op diet I was 480. Almost two weeks post-op I am 425. I feel perfectly fine with no cravings or hunger pangs and my energy level has actually increased! I have been given a new lease on life and I would like to thank weight loss agents and Dr. Almanza for keeping this professional and affordable. I highly reccomend Dr. Almanza and WLA to anyone battling weight issues...

After failing diet after diet. I finally decided to make the best decision of my life. It's so hard to believe that just 2 short months ago I was a scared 274lb woman who feared my weight would be the death of me and that this diet wouldn't work for me. Now thanks to Dr. Almanza, weightlossagents.com, and God I'm a 233lb woman who feels like her life is just beginning, and it honestly is! I can't wait for the months to come. Hopefully 2 more months brings another 41 pound loss. Only thing I regret is not doing it sooner.

My experience with Dr. Almanza and his staff was awesome from the moment they picked us up to the moment that they dropped us off at the airport.

I had my gastric sleeve procedure in July of 2012 by Dr. Almanza, and in 2.5 years I lost 190 pounds... So, you could imagine the excess skin I had. Dr. Yanez loves what he does, and it shows when he works with you. I couldn't be more pleased with what he has done to improve my body. I can truly say to let my pictures speak for themselves! I can't wait to start working out this summer... With the Daddy Makeover and liposuction surgery, after I heal and start to work out... Muscle tone and definition is what I have to look forward to after this summer, and I couldn't be more excited! Thank you to the whole team at Weightloss Agents!

The whole experience was just as they tell you it's going to be... The nurses were great. I grilled them on their education as nurses and was pleased to find out that they go through the same schooling as Nurses in the US do... I get weekly/monthly emails and phone calls from Dr. A's office checking in on me, they are great... If you are nervous about this experience, don't be. It's legit, and a very positive experience overall. There are no hidden costs once you get there. I paid before going and didn't spend a dime while in Mexico... I would do this again in a heartbeat!

Tikka, Gastric Sleeve 12/12/2014 Read the full testimonial

...I can eat pretty much what I want. Of course, no bread and no sodas, but I get full after just a little bit of food. I would highly recommend this surgery to anyone struggling with weight loss. Dr. Almanza and his team do a great job for a fraction of the cost that you will pay in the states !! I would absolutely do this again !!!

In August of 2014 my daughter wasn't eating her dinner and when I asked her why she said she didn't want to be fat like mommy. Needless to say, I was crushed. I balled the entire night... I couldn't afford the 15k I was told it would cost, with insurance!.. I was nervous about having it done in Mexico and alone... I was sick of not just being unhealthy, but a disappointment to my children. I wanted go go for walks with them, run with them, go for hikes even, or just have the endurance to last the day!.. The staff of weighlossagents.com were amazing. They called all the time to check if I had any questions. They were always kind and helpful... I am so happy I had this done! I wish I had known about weighlossagents.com sooner! If you are reading this and are nervous, do yourself a favor and JUST DO IT! You will be so happy you did! My daughter has even noticed that I am getting smaller! Thank you Dr. Almanza, his wonderful staff, and all the agents at weightlossagents.com!

...I never would have done it here in the US because of so much money and seminars, I just couldn't spare the time. The whole trip was without any problems. There were no surprises... I feel great!! I'd do it over again in a second, I have a family member and a close friend signed up with Dr Almanza this February I'm going with them for moral support. It will be exciting to go back to the place that changed my life. I thank The lord Jesus for this experience and for Dr Almanza's team for doing what God allows them to do CHANGE LIVES!

Meredith Ramirez, Gastric Sleeve 06/10/2013 Read the full testimonial

... weight loss agents was the best, I love their online patient portal and how they manage your care right from the very beginning. Every thing was easy to understand and follow before and after surgery... the post op care from the nurses at the hotel was exceptional, from the beginning to end they took care of every need... I was so relieved to have the band out and to not feel hungry I cried with JOY! Having the sleeve has set me free from a life time of struggle, I still don't feel hungry, the weight is coming off and I feel healthier than I can ever remember... I love what WLA has done for me and have recommended them to my friends and anyone who asks... I have shared my experience with anyone that asks about my weight loss, perhaps I can pay it forward and help them too!

My diabetes was out of control... I was on two blood pressure drugs... My lab numbers for everything were bad. Five weeks after surgery I had an appointment with my primary care physician. He ran routine tests and was stunned... I'm am a former lecturer for Weight Watchers and I have tried every diet out there including low carb/high protein and low fat. I even spent one year in counseling -- a waste of time and money. And my weight was climbing... knew I had to do something to get healthier... I've now lost about 35 pounds and hope to lose another 20... I now have a feeling of freedom I've never had before.

The hotel furnishes free chicken broth for the gastric sleeve patients and it is so yummy!.. I am 10 weeks out and have lost 41 lbs!.. If you are a yo-yo dieter or if you just are tired of the fight, I highly recommend the gastric sleeve surgery and I really recommend using Dr Almanza and his wonderful staff!

...PLEASE don't wait until you are 52 GO AHEAD AND DO IT NOW!!! Just think about it. If your 42 that's 10 more years of a quality life instead of a life of struggle with life ending weight issues. You need to understand that you are not a failure by choosing surgery as the tool to loose weight it only means that you cared enough about yourself and your family to do what you had to do to beat this disease called Obesity. Again I feel better than I have in years and look forward to my life ahead... Thanks Dr. Mario Almanza for your help in changing my life!...

Greg Eatherly, Gastric Sleeve October 6th, 2014 Read the full testimonial

...Dr Almanza and his team did a great job. I am a nurse so I was super paranoid. The facility is cleaner than some US hospitals. In Mexico, there is a strong sense of pride. There was always someone cleaning something. I would say if you are tired of being over weight do something about it. Obesity is a sure fire way to only compile health issues. Gastric sleeve had its risk, but being over weight is a death sentence...

I did a lot of research on the sleeve, band and bypass surgeries. I went with the gastric sleeve and I couldn't be happier. I lost 100 pounds in seven months and have reached my goal... I was so blessed to have the option to have surgery in Mexico. I could not have surgery in the states because they won't perform gastric surgery on anyone that has had an eating disorder. I was bulimic for almost thirty years and now I consider myself recovered in all areas of eating now... It is the best thing I could have ever done for myself and I thank God everyday for this life changing opportunity.

After hearing from many people that the gastric sleeve is the only way to go after the failure of my lap band, i decided I couldn't keep gaining weight from all the trouble i had having the lap band. I knew the gastric sleeve might be a better solution... I've lost 40 pounds since last year!...I do have a few scars to show that I had the surgery, but I am still wearing a 2 piece and no one has noticed my scars. Dr. Almanza's team was professional and very clean. I was NOT at all scared to do this...

It has been seven weeks since I travelled to Miami with my very supportive fiancee for my gastric sleeve surgery and boy do I feel better! I have lost 24 pounds already! I did a great deal of research to find an affordable location within the U.S. for the procedure and was given the recommendation to check out Weight Loss agents. This worked out very well... was thrilled that I could schedule my surgery within a month... My pre-surgery phone calls with Dr. Choi were very reassuring. I don't know where to begin to describe how excellent the care has been by Dr. Michael Choi, his surgical team and the staff at Larkin Hospital... I cannot believe that I even have his cell phone number and feel that I could call him anytime... I felt that my recovery was well monitored and I was in such a good location if anything had not gone well...It amazes me that I am satisfied with just a few bites as my stomach was like a bottomless pit and I was never satisfied before... I'm excited for what lies ahead and am so glad I made the decision to make a u-turn with my health. Katherine, Massachusetts Formerly 220 lbs currently 196lbs.

Afflicted with type 2 diabetes, I tried every diet and diet pill available to me. NOTHING worked for very long. I wanted to be around for my husband and grandchildren, so I decided to have the gastric sleeve surgery... I am OFF all diabetic medications(metformin pills and Victoza injections), and my blood pressure is now under control. This has been the greatest gift I could've possibly given to myself!... My ONLY regret is that I did not do this much sooner and that is the honest to God truth! At no time was I ever uncomfortable or in any pain... The people were very nice and helpful, even after I returned home after my surgery. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Almanza to my friends and family...
