      I'm going to Dr.Alvarez. I did my research and just found myself feeling comfortable with his credentials, other peoples feedback, youtube posts and the receptionist Susan. I think about it most days

    Hi there, I was wondering how your experience was with Dr Pompa? I am looking into this surgery and I'm a bit nervous.

    It was great! I had a really positive experience and still go to support group meetings regularity... Hardest part for me has been the mental mind games I play on my self regarding food. Everyday I have to make a conscious effort to eat right but its payed off.. Down 104lbs and feel great! For some reason it doesn't show me that others posted here so sorry for the late response. I would be glad to answer any other questions although it may be quicker if you PM me.
