Dr Alvarez....the good and the bad.

I thinking about choosing Dr Alvarez. Does anyone have any feed back? What about the percentage of weight loss with his patients. I see that some doctors claim to have as high as a 96% of excess weight loss. Does he do all of his surgeries? Thanks

      It will be hard to find anything negative about him, from what I have found.

    He is wonderful....nothing bad to say. I had surgery April 2 with him and have lost 59 lbs so far. Down to 198. The whole experience before, during, and after surgery has been wonderful!
