I see that this doctor is popular......have there been any REAL problems with this doctor and the outcome of his operations ? Afraid of possible leaks...etc.? Anyone experience this...? I am desperate to lose the 100 pounds + of weight....

There are many people on this forum that have been to Dr. Alvarez. I was sleeved by him on August 2. he is an amazing surgeon. I had truly wonderful care at the hospital. My husband traveled with me and was very impressed with Dr. A and is staff. He speaks perfect English and will always get right back to you when you have a question or a problem. I can help you speak to many others that had surgery with him, if you want to PM me. He is more $ than the Dr's in TJ but I think he was worth every penny. It is very safe to cross the border at Piedras Negras and Rosie takes great care of you as she transports you to and from the hospital. I am doing great now and had basically no pain from the time I woke up from surgery. My surgery experience was truly great. There are a couple of Dr. Alvarez threads under the Mexico surgery board on here too. You can also go to Obesityhelp.com and find loads of info on him there, there are hundreds of testimonies on there for him.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
