    I had my surgery with Dr Alvarez 18 months ago. He is awesome. Down 195 lbs. Still have 35-40 to go. Good luck!

Hi! I'll be going May 25th! I start my pre-op liquid diet in about a week! :)

Dr. Alvarez did my surgery last July. He was really great, and did a wonderful job. I'm down almost 100 pounds. I hope you all have a smooth recovery process, and good luck!

I had been wanting to see results of a female starting in the 400's. Thank you and congratulations! Everyone's comments have put me at ease about the surgery but yours was extremely motivating, I'm 5'2" and starting at 400lb. I'm 4 days into my pre-op diet and I am already feeling much better. Thank you so much!

Glad to find some Dr. Alvarez alums on here.  I am seeing him for my sleeve in about a month and like seeing that he's as good as I hoped he would be. 

I'm looking into going to Alvarez on late Aug. I emailed them last night to see if Aug 26 or 27 is available. I did a lot of research months/year ago and finally have decided to do this. I'm miserable. Let me know when you get a scheduled date TXTINANA

@@djs1976 I am actually scheduled to have surgery with Alvarez on August 17th.  Were you able to confirm a date?

Yes, I couldn't get my date as he's going to be out of town, so it was either the 22nd or Sept 7th. I chose the latter as the 22nd interfered with my vacation. Good Luck your day is right around the corner!

Yes it is! In fact my pre-op diet starts in 4 days...yikes!!!
