Will fly into San Diego from Buffalo NY, even though I am Canadian and live in Oshawa which is 40 minutes east of Toronto. If you come from Ontario, fly out of Buffalo. Its much cheaper and more flights available. Got a hotel room through Groupon for one night stay with my wife in SD. When I fly back with her, will fly into Buffalo where my children will pick us up in the car, and then stay one night in a hotel in Niagara Falls Ontario. Also Groupon. Cheap, cheap cheap. Staying in luxury hotel 15-20 minutes from HMN hospital for only $60.00 USD for me and my wife. Has special arrangement with Dr. Lamanza.
I now weigh 280 lbs am 5 ft. 5.5 inches high and am 58 years old. Have had one angina attack, one heart attack and have out of control type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. Cardiologist assures me that gastric sleeve will eliminate all symptoms after about a year. Goal weight is 160. Successfully going through pre-op diet. Will use Dr. Fuhrman's diet after post-op diet finished. Emphasis on vegetables, fruits and grains, small amounts of meat. Expect this to resolve my arthritis.
I wish the very best for all of you.
Dr. Gus Gianello
