Need help finding good Dr. in DFW (Texas) area



Recommended Posts

I was banded by Dr. Jay. I saw him at one of the information sessions that included several other physicians in 2003. His name stuck with me, Dr. Jay. If I had to do it again, I would not use him. I started the process on Jan 3, 2006 with my initial consultation. I was banded on May 30, 2006. I had NEVER met the man until I was at the surgical center about to be given the shot to render me unconscious. I have not had a meeting with the man since the surgery. His PA & staff are great (but what do I know I have nothing to compare them to)! I tried to schedule my fills by him. It didn't work out becausue he was out of the office when I arrived. Find someone who has a little more dedication to his patients.

Very pleased with Dr Kuhn, great bedside manner. Baylor was superb experience. Husband & I had it as the same time.

2 weeks post op, I'm down 14 pounds & Husband has lost 15.

Well, I've got to chime in and say that Dr. Smith and his staff are wonderful too. His office is in FW and he does his surgery out of the Surgical Center in Hurst on Precinct Line Road.

Texas folks, I think we are blessed or lucky to have many great docs in our area!

Hello

Dr. Adam Smith did my surgery...we have a support group that meets the 1st and 3rd Tuesday (in Ft Worth) at 6pm. He pays for the facilitator who is a registered psychologist - her name is Marcie.

I think he covers your fills for the 1st year...

Dr. Smith is banded as well - most of his office staff has been banded so they know the real deal.

You can contact his office at 817.850.1100. You can google him to get more information.

Please check him out!

Dr. Smith provides a year of free fills only for self-pay patients. But I agree...he is SUPER!

to Librarygirl: I also used Dr.Bryce in Rowlett. I really like him , he had removed my gallbladder several months before my banding and is a really nice guy. Did you have any problems with continuing help? I stopped recieving info about seminars, etc. months ago and am just on my own now. I was banded May 16, '07

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
