Im in Grand Prairie too. I had my surgery about 15 months ago with Dr Castro in Duncanville. You might want to check him out. His staff works really hard with insurance problems.

Opinions needed. I am deciding between dr Manual Castro in Duncanville ( Methodist Dallas) or dr Davidson (Presbyterian Dallas). Please vote and share why you would choose which.

Well i used Dr.Davidson at Presbyterian.I've lost 184lbs in one year exactly to the day.He is a great Dr. and will be straight forward with you.On the day of the surgery i was laying in the bed waiting to have my sleeve done i started getting nervous, well he walked in with his operating clothes on and asked if i was ready and then asked me if i would mind if he said a prayer! That eased my mind and i knew he was going to take great care of me!

My insurance was approved. I have my surgery on March 11 with Dr. David Kim.

Change of plans surgery date is now April 9th. Does anyone know where the trophy club is at? That's where I'm having my surgery at.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
