Guillermo Alvarez Bariatric Surgeon MD

I did my research prior to choosing Dr. A. I am an experienced nurse and work with surgeons daily. My point being that I am aware or what I do and do not want in a surgeon. The process was easy from planning the trip to have surgery and my coordinator was so quick to respond to any questions I had. The experience once I arrived at the hospital was absolutely amazing. The hospital was first of all so clean and the decor and architecture was beautiful. Absolutely unlike any hospital I’ve been to or worked at. I felt as if it was easy to communicate with everyone who cared for me. I saw Dr. A daily while recovering in addition to another doctor. I must say the nurses after surgery on the floor were not super talkative/ outgoing…. But they gave me meds when I needed and so forth so I can’t complain too much about their personality I suppose. I hardly had pain! Discharge instructions were clear and I love the emails at each diet phase to remind you what you could have after surgery. I’ve had to email Dr. A on tw separate occasions and I received a response same day and both were video responses. Addressing me by name and answering my questions. I don’t know where you get that sort of care anywhere else! I have literally had zero complications. I feel better than I have in years. I’m happier, my marriage is happier and I feel so amazing! The energy I have is so refreshing! I’ve lost 45lbs in my first 3 months. Started out right at 200lbs for reference. The group of ladies that had surgery the same day have become lifelong friends! We all group text every single day! Overall, this is the best decision I’ve ever made! Dr. A has been nothing but amazing! My great results and lack of any complications is the biggest thing I want to point out! I’d do it over in a heartbeat!

Dr. A and his entire team/staff are fantastic! My experience over all was a 10/10! From my research on Dr. A and his social media and YouTube’s informative videos I felt like he was a great choice for me. And I am happy to say that I would recommend him to anyone!

I was nervous initially about going across the border to Mexico for my surgery. However, Dr.A and his staff were very reassuring. The facilities are some of the cleanest I've ever had the pleasure of walking into. The staff were also so helpful and kind during my stay, it was extremely refreshing. If you're wanting to go through with this surgery I can't recommend Dr.A and his staff enough. You will not find a crew with a better bed side manner.

I'm not sure who your coordinator would end up being, but I had Brandi as my coordinator and she answered all of my questions quickly and sincerely. If you have a choice in coordinator I urge you to pick Brandi.

The surgery went fantastic. I'm down 77 pounds since my surgery in November 2021 and with that has given me the energy and drive to go out and walking, exercising, biking, etc.

I also recommend chatting with your "sleeve-siblings" as they'll be a strong support group for your future life style change.

I have to say Dr. Alvarez is a top class doctor. Choosing to do the gastric sleeve was far most the best choice I have made in my life. Anyone thinking about it, don’t even hesitate DO IT. I feel so much better, happier mood, more confident and a much better self esteem. I cannot say enough about Dr. Alvarez. The hospital is beautiful, and spotless. Dr. Alvarez exceeded all my expectations. All my questions were answered by him. I never felt like another number. When I had concerns he came personally to address them with me. His communication is more than I expected from a doctor. I am so used to having procedures and then the doctors don’t even remember you. Not Dr. Alvarez. I had a question and a concern about a hernia he had fixed for me and to my surprise he even emailed me a video of his explanation directed to me personally. This is essential for me. Thank you Dr. Alvarez you are super. Thank you for giving me this fulfillment in my life.

VSG has definitely changed my life for good. I had my surgery 09/30/2021 and I am now down 55 pounds. I feel great. A lot more energy and less back pain.
I can’t wait to reach my goal. Thank you Dr. A

From start to finish, this has been a First Class experience. The support provided prior to and after my surgery was professional and informative. I made the decision to go on my own, and yet I never felt alone. Dr. Alvarez, his team of physicians and all of the support and clinical staff at Endobariatrics provided exceptional care. I am a registered nurse myself and did over a year of research prior to my surgery. The care provided was lightyears above any care I have received in a US based hospital. I am over half way to my goal weight, I am off my blood pressure meds as well as Metformin that I was taking for pre-diabetes. I feel great. I know that Dr. Alvarez added years back to my life and am forever grateful.

Dr Alvarez and his team are amazing. I couldn't have asked for better care. I 100% recommend Dr Alvarez. Thank you Dr A for helping me get my life back

Best decision I’ve ever made in my life. In less than 3 months I’m down 49lbs!

From the start everything was great. Information given before surgery. The Dr. took the time to go over questions and doubts I had. The hospital and the staff were excellent.
