Dr Alveraz

Hello everyone

I am being sleeved on August 4th by Dr Alveraz....Has anyone gone to him? Just curious...One of my clients here in Canada has and so I was recommended and a good friend who is a Dr here specializing in obesity with children has done her research says no news here is good news...It means no one has had to fix his mistakes. *whew*. Just wondering if anyone else has gone to him?

    Welcome to the boards once more Mczoo. Our Dr. Alvarez is going to be a very busy person come August. I know he's always busy but this is a huge VST group going to him in August. I sure hope we all

I am sure Sweetsusie will get on in due time, but I just thought I would update you all. I received a text from her saying that all was great. We were unable to text cause she is getting charged per text. She said surgery was a breeze and she has no pain at all. I will let her give the full details when she happens to get on. Just wanted you all to know how she was.

Great to hear!

Thank you for the update on Susie, StormWarning . So glad that she is doing so well :)

Anytime.

She's not able to text me cause of the charges. I guess thats something I need to look into. I never thought about roaming, or if it will even apply to me. I need to check my carrier plan. I would hate to not be able to text my friends or get a huge bill because of my texting, Definitely something to check into.

I understand. That is the easiest way to keep people updated. I know when we cruise, we turn or phones off because even texts we receive cost us $ . There is a phone in the hospital room to call the USA on, I believe I read that in our info packet.

There is a phone in the hall to call on.its cordless so you share it with neighbors. There is also an ipad in your room. It has vst on it. We used google chat also for those of you with a smart phone. Regular phones don't get very good signal and roam. My sisters att phone charged per text but my tmobile smart phone didn't. I had a crappy sign al though. You have internet on the computer in your room and the ipad he gives you.

Hey everybody, thank u for all ur prayers and thoughts. I couldn't be happier with my choice ;). He is more than amazing and when I woke up I was questioning whether I had surgery or not, lol. Jessica is great also. For anyone unsure about a sleeve, I say go for it!!! I just got my iPad this morning and wanted to give an update. Talk to you all very soon. Take care.

Susie,

That is awesome that you are doing so well! I hope that my surgery goes as well as yours has. How was the flight? I have been concerned with that. I have to stop and change planes at Dallas love field, there was no direct flight from San Antonio to KC. Get to take off and Land twice :0 hopefully I can rest some on the plane.

How are you doing with water? I hope that you are not having discomfort with that. Get some good rest and we will talk when you feel like chatting ;). Hugs, Joyce
