Looking for an opinion

Hey guys, I'm scheduled for my sleeve on June 14, has anyone been sleeved by dr Almanza?

Have you searched for his name in the search bar at the top of the screen. While you are waiting for new answers, I am sure there are plenty of previous posts about him. Good Luck in your info. search!

Yep. I had surgery with Dr Almanza on 3/8/13. These are the things that are facts -

The clinic is indeed in a strip mall. The recovery rooms are in the same place except across the parking lot. You will stay in the clinic a while post op then go to recovery or the hotel, whichever is your plan.

Almanza does a lot of surgeries in a day sometimes. The number will vary from day to day.

You will be well taken care of from the time you arrive in San Diego. The clinic, recovery, and hotel staff are very nice and professional. They will take care of what you need.

Dr Almanza will talk with you briefly before surgery. He is competent, professional, and not bad looking:) He does a good job, the price is right, and a nice guy.

I had no problems at all and the rest of the people there the same time as me had no problems either.

Don't worry you will be in good hands.

There are many clips on You Tube you can watch. I looked at him decided on another doc. Write down all your requirements and research. He does do a lot during the day I have 2 issues (BMI and Revision) so I went with someone I felt had more experience and time to take because I will take longer. The doc I have will only do 2 surgeries that day. My doc price was about $1000 more.
