Osvaldo C. Anez I met my surgeon at my first doctor's appointment and he spent time with me reviewing my history and discussing the procedure he would do on me. He only does Open Mini-Incision RNY (there are others in his practice that perform other surgeries). I felt really comfortable with him and he has an excellent reputation in this area. Most at his office have also had this surgery so they are able to talk to you from first hand experience.
He has a very structured program and his staff walks you through all requirements and works with your insurance company to get you approved. My 1st appointment was January 23, 2007 and my Surgery was April 12, 2007 this is a relative quick approval process for this type of surgery. He staff is able to refer you to many specialist to assist you with getting the clearances needed. I did not meet him again until the day of my Surgery (it would have been nice to see him a little more, but I love his staff). The Surgery went well and he even corrected problems that were found in my pre-op test while performing my surgery. I did not see him again after the surgery at the hospital but he did see me when I felt like I was having a problem after I came home and he was able to reassure me that everything was fine and that I was doing well. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering RNY surgery.

I'm a Grandma Well, it has been awhile since I have updated! I lost 150lbs. the first year. Today is my 27th wedding anniversary. My first grandchild was born on Wednesday 6/18/08 weighing in at 6 lbs 8ozs and 20 inches long. I am so thrilled beyond words. I am traveling down to Key West to see him and I don't have the extra weight that would kill me. I can wear any size large right off the rack, and will be a grandma that will be able to play with her kids.
