Hi Karyn,
I am about 3 months post op from Alvarado Hospital and can tell you that these folks do know what they are doing. I wish you the best of luck with your surgery and post op. Just follow the eating plan and you will be successful. Keep a positive attitude. It works wonders on you and your caregivers. I live in Glendale, not too far from Lawndale. Write me if you like.
