Im looking for a good Dr. In San Antonio. I am very new to this' date=' dont know if om going to go through with this or not. I dont even know where to start. Any advice?[/quote']

Hey! I went through true results. They did everything! You can set up a consultation and they tell you everything you want to know, you get to talk to someone that has had the lap band, and a little book about everything you want to know. They set up all the things I needed for my insurance, like the psych evaluation and stuff. So I defiantly recommend going there. My doctor was Dr. Wright, he's very nice, and good at what he does. He also discovered that I had gallstones and removed my gallbladder.

Thank you. I had read about Dr. Patel and just read bad things about his staff and that he has no bed side manner. However, ive heard alot about Dr. Wright. Thank you!!

Yessssss!!! Got approved by my insurance today, meeting up with Dr. Wright on the 19th of November. However, I am excited, nervous, anxious and did I say nervous!? Any questions you all can think of that I need to ask Dr. Wright? I wrote all my questions down, but just wondering if I forgot anything. Ready for my new journey.

Hi I'm Sylvia just finished my 6 months process with true results in San Antonio , Dr, Carmichel will be my doc for the surgery . I was told I had to wait one year for my insurance to approve or deniy this surgery . My year is up in June so I'm hoping by the time they look at everything they will just approve me . I've met every thing they asked for so now I'm in the waitng game. It's just starting to hit me that this is all gonna take place, I'm already getting nervous . And I haven't even been approved!! So I am looking for support too .
