  1. I'm currently looking into surgery with Dr. Alvarez instead of Dr. Kelly

    I was wondering if anyone has any experience with him?

    He's more expensive but I like that he has state of the art equipment such as the stapling tool

    and I like that the sleeve is the only procedure he does

    I also like his surgery time

    Just looking for some insight from people who have been there before me

    Thank you in advanced


  2. Alex, as you know my hubby just had his Sleeve done in Juarez, Mexico. It wasn't the best experience for sure. He had looked into BARIATRICPAL but thought ifthe cost is higher maybe he is a better DR. Not sure why he figured that. I only wish he had went with you people. But when he got the phone call from BeLiteWeight, they mentioned this Dr. He was one they told him to stay away from. SCARY STUFF So glad he didn't go to him. The Suregon that did my RNY offered to do my skin surgery. Of course I didn't have him do it but he wasn't a PS. He has since then, hired a couple of PS in his office with him. In fact just because we had a problem with him I still went thru his office with one of his PS. Another kind of sad story. Maybe at another time.

    I'm honestly scared to death. I'm having so much anxiety trying to pick the right surgeon and I just want to be okay. I just don't know how to know who to trust. :(


  3. I took out a loan to have my surgery with Dr. Kelly Ramos. I was all excited and ready to go and now my nerves are getting the better of me. I was going to schedule it for december but now I'm worried that I'm chickening out. I'm so scared of complications and of traveling that far from home and I'm just so panicked right now. Most of the reviews I've seen for doctor kelly are amazing but i good portion of them are pretty old. has anyone had surgery with him recently? Does anyone have any insight or recommendations? I'm panicking but I really want to change my life :(
