Just wanted to know if anyone has been sleeved at BMI of Texas in San Antonio, the doctors listed there are Dr. Terive Duperier and Dr. Mickey Seger & what your experience was w/them or perhaps another San Antonio facility?? I was wanting to go to Dr. Alvarez in Mexico but a bit chicken to go to Mexico just yet & was trying to find a facility in Texas since I already live here. Any info would be great, good or bad. Thanks, in advance, to anyone who replies.

My understanding is that the number of nutrition visits is often dictated by the insurance companies. Mine is Humana PPO and they are requiring 6 visits. The doctors and staff at BMI of Texas have been fantastic with me. I'm looking at a December date if everything goes well. Good luck!

I am getting sleeved by Dr. Seger on Dec. 18, 2013. I am more than nervous! I wish it would hurry up and be here and over with...so I can stop feeling anxious! I am a self pay so I saw the NUT one time and nothing very major...didn't get into much details about stuff. BUT if I have questions about anything I email her and she replies quickly. So the experience there is good so far. I hope the surgery goes well too!

That's great KeRrAZeE!! I'm very happy with the results thus far. The office has been very accommodating whenever I have had questions. I hope your surgery goes well. Mine is going to be at Methodist S&T. Dr. Seger seems to be a great doctor along with his partner. So I would be happy with either of them. Good luck!!

Getting sleeved by dr Duperier in February *fingers crossrd*

Just got sleeved by Dr Duperier on Jan 28 and he was great. He discussed the procedure afterwards. Mine operation was a little more difficult he said because my stomach was higher in my abdominal cavity. This caused a few geometry problems getting to the stomach with the tools. That's why you want someone with a lot of experience and not someone who is doing his training on you.

Dr. D is the very good.

The staff at Methodist Specialty and Transplant was great also. Dr SHankar Sanka was the MD calling the shots on meds for my bloood presssure, blood sugar, etc. He was great also. Very down-to-earth, not condescending, just a great guy!
