Dr Alvarez and his whole team are everything and more that
everyone says he is. Kindness radiates from his smile.
There is kindness in the simplest touch. His team is
professional, compassionate and very kind...

I guess it I am like many of
the others. I was always "the fat girl".
I was 100lbs by the time I was in the 3rd grade. However,
I was a healthy kid. Wasn't very active, didn't have many
friends, because I was often teased. I was stood up by
a prom date, because him asking me was a joke, people wanted
to see my reaction...

Dr. Alvarez is a wonderful
surgeon and person. He and his team are very warm, personable,
and accommodating. The whole trip was very fast and everything
was taken care of. Everyone said how much they liked Dr.
A, but you don't really know how great he is until you
meet him...

I had spent months
trying to get approved for lapband surgery.
Within that time I began to have serious
doubts about whether lapband was my best
choice. Then someone mentioned vertical
gastric sleeve. I did research and through
my research I learned about Dr. Alvarez.
So I called...

Like most people, I have been
LARGE all of my life. I did not weigh or measure before
the surgery, which I know wish I had done. I weighed approximately
475 lbs, wore 56/58 pants and 4X/5X shirts.I was diabetic
and had extreme hypertension. I was taking 15 pills a day,
and still had severe hypertension...

Hi...My name is Sherri. I have been
overweight the majority of my life. In the past 8 years
though the weight really climbed up until I reached 300lbs
and am only... just barely 5 feet tall. I did not
have much of a life at that weight and would cry daily
because of the pain in my body...

Dr. Alvarez has the best bedside
manners I've ever experienced. He was extremely knowledgeable.
He came to visit me several times each of the 2 days
I was in the hospital. He shows genuine concern for his
patients. As for his surgical competence, the man is
just awesome. My 5 incisions are very small and neat...

My name is Susan.
I was banded in May 2005 in Monterrey
Mexico. I had high hopes that the band
would take care of my obesity issues
once and for all. In January of 2006,
I began to have some issues with my port
and ultimately it was deemed I had an
infection. I had only managed to lose
35 pounds with the band.... In September
of 2006, I had the VSG surgery performed
with Dr. Alvarez...

Hi I'm Janelle Parker and
I was sleeved on April 1st 2008. I have to start
off this testimonial by saying that you (Dr.
Alvarez) have saved my life and I LOVE being
sleeved! Its been such a joy and the easiest
thing that I have ever done. I started off at
256 lbs the day of my sleeve and today I weigh
161---95 lbs lost in 8 months and 2 lbs away
from a NORMAL BMI! I feel like a new woman!. |

Zina. Texas
It's been one year since my surgery
in November of 2007 and I've had what I consider to be
incredible success. I never thought I would surpass my
goal before the one year mark. I've attached a
picture taken on vacation with my husband 2 days before
my surgery in November 2007 and a picture taken 1 year
post op in November 2008. I started at 220 and a size
20, but now I'm in a size 6 around 145lbs. I never thought
I'd see a 6 without a 1 in front of it. :-) I've
gone from a size 8 ring finger to a size 5 ring finger,
and from a 2x shirt to a regular size medium, and from
a huge bra size of 42F to a 34 DD. Life is good! This
surgery changed my outlook on life, my self worth, my
social status, activity level, just about everything.
Thank you so much. |

For me it isn't how
much weight I have lost, but the changes
in my health and spirits. I have lost 80+
pounds and I still have 60+ more to go. I
was on 150 units of insulin every night and
that was not keeping my blood sugar under
control.

Let me tell you my story, 56 years
old and a semi-retired contractor really not doing too
well in the physical or mental stakes. At 320 pounds
with ankle, knee and hip problems, chronic low back pain,
high blood pressure, borderline diabetic all coupled
to the propensities of old age and a touch of self pity
style depression.
