I Just Bought Dr Alvarez's Book!

Even though he is not my surgeon, I decided to buy his book, since it looked like it had lots of info for us sleevers. Anyone else have it? I will pass it to my aunt when im done :)

I cant wait to get it! I think it will be very valuable to my aunt and cousin too. I might need to include it in their surgery baskets!!

I thought about buying it but haven't yet. Where did you get it?

Do they have this book for kindle or IPAD

I bought it on my iPhone using my kindle app. Lots of great info!!

I'm trying to find the book but it doesn't show up

I have to tell you guys - I bought Dr. A's book several weeks ago and I keep going back and re-reading parts of it because I think it's that good. I also emailed Dr. A and he spoke with me and we even did FaceTime and talked!! If I didn't feel the need to stay more local, he would have been my next choice. My top 3 were Dr. Kelly, Dr. Aceves and Dr. Alvarez. I was soooo impressed by a surgeon who took time out of his day to FACETIME with me - someone who is NOT his patient - because he believes in this procedure as a life saver.

So, I can only say really good things about Dr. Alvarez and he's not even my doctor. :)

You have to buy it direct from his site.

Deb, I totally agree with your top drs and I have watched many of his YouTube videos. I also agree with why you chose Dr K,, I chose him for his locale as well, after I determined his ctedentials to be superb. I would have gone to Mexicali, but I felt more comfortable in a place I was familiar with, and knew how to get to in case I had a complication. And I'm so very glad you are my friend :D
