I'm live in Houston. Two friends of mine went to Dr. Wilkenfeld on Conroe. I am self pay. I am goin to Dr. Fernando Garcia in Tiajuana.

Dr. Worley at Methodist Willowbrook is absolutely AMAZING!! I can't say anything bad about him, and awesome bedside manner and very thorough! He leaves no stone unturned!

I have to second Dr. Todd Worley! He is absolutely an amazing doctor. I have not a single negative thing to say about him, or his staff!

I am from houston, but going to Mexico. If you are looking in the houston area, Def recommend Dr. Worley at Methodist Willowbrook. I absolutely LOVE him!! He is a leading bariatric surgeon and he did my emergency appendectomy at midnight and still was more than eager to explain every little detail that I wanted to know. Follow up was just the same, he took me to his office to look at all my scans and explain them, cannot find one bad thing to say about him. If I had insurance, that is where I would be!
