Need a doctor in Houston!



Recommended Posts

I thought I had a doctor to do the follow-up for me, but turns out he doesn't know very much about the sleeve at all. He doesn't know what to check etc.

I've been running a low grade fever off and on and want to find a doctor in Houston Texas that will take me as a patient.

I called Dr. Wilkenfeld (in Conroe), where I had been twice before for "consultation" for WLS - and my insurance wouldn't pay. Now that I did "self-pay" in Mexico, he won't do the follow-up.

Does anyone know of a doctor in Houston that I can use for the follow-up? I REALLY need to find someone because I'm not feeling very good.

Okay... having a bit of a pity party (tears and all) and trying to hide it. I just want a doctor to check me and let me know if I am okay or if I need some adjusting!

Will the Davis Clinic see you? They do bariatrics exclusively. If they won't, ask if there is someone they could refer you to.

Davis Clinic was VERY nice. The person I talked to on the phone is going to check with the doctor (who is in a meeting) and call me back. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Did you get in to see someone? Please post an update and let us know how you are doing. Hopefully the fever is unrelated to surgery :-)

Dr.Alanis in Houston is just wonderful! He did a sleeve on me and my husband! He has an office in League City and Houston (Richmond and Dairy Ashford) . Let me know if you would like phone numbers.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
