Kind, sincere the whole way through. Adept to his trade catching small details before they become big problems in the after care (days) of surgery. Would like to see him more pursuent on nutrition details afterwards. He was with Neweigh when I was with him but has since separated from them. Cares for his patients on a personal level. Respected in a broad area by other physicians at multipal levels. Surgical, bedside all great.

Dr. Alanis was God sent i promise. He is the best doctor i have had in a long time. He really cares about his patients. I have no complaints about him what so ever. He is the GREATEST!! He takes very good care of me and answers any questions i have. His surgical competence and bedside manner are excellent!! I have recommended him to several others who have had the procedure.
Dr. Alanis is a wonderful doctor. He has an exceptional bedside manner and a fierce dedication to his patients and their well being. I have never felt so improtant in a doctor's eyes as I did when Dr. Alanis was taking care of me. I would recommend him to anyone. He is knowledgable, caring, understanding, and honest.
Dr. Alanis is very kind and his bedside manners are out of this world. From the first office visit to the day I was discharged from the hospital Dr. Alanis took GREAT care of me. The staff at NeWeigh seemed knowledgeable.
Dr. Alanis and the staff at NeWeigh was honest and clear about the RNY procedure with me. I was advised of the risk's involved but it was not done in a manner to scare me or my family.
After I had my surgery it was difficult to get a clear answer to my questions. Prior to the surgery I could call NeWeigh and get answeres to any question I had. After the surgery if my question was a medial question I had to call the Dr.'s office and if I had a general question that's when I would call NeWeigh. Sometimes the two offices would send me to the other to get a question answered.
My overall experience was great and I am down over 80lbs now.
My surgeon was so wonderful and very encouraging.He was caring and explained the procedure so nicely.The office staff was so nice and supportive,because most of them had gone thru the surgery and had alot to share and that was very helpful and enlightening.Future patients should be honest and feel free to call him anytime if you have questions,even if you have an emergency,and think you need his care after hours.He will return your call asap.They told me the normal risk of the surgery and I took the precautions.The overall rate is he is 100% the most excellent surgeon,I have ever had.I think he should be awared the no.1 Rou-eny Surgeon.He has Surgical expertise,wonderful bedside manner and the office visits were encourageing each time.
When I first met Dr. Alanis I was impressed with his knowledge and overall experience with WLS, he didn't leave anything out. He covered the benefits, risks involved, what was actually going to be done during the surgery..he covered it all. At first I was on the fence about having the surgery in the first place but once I met him and his staff, I felt reassured that he knew what he was doing and I was going to be in good hands. The NeWeigh Staff is excellent, everyone is very caring and they want to help you throughout your journey. NeWeigh has "little sisters" that have already had WLS and you can always go to them for questions or if you just need to talk. NeWeigh also provides a weekly support group and they even have holiday parties for all their patients, this way you can meet other people in different stages on their WLS journey. I would recommend him to anyone who was in need of the surgery b/c of his experience. After the surgery, Dr. Alanis checked up on me several times to see how I was doing and that showed that he really cared and wanted to make sure I was recovering well.
