If anyone's had surgery with Dr. Gonzales in Dallas I would really like to hear from you. I am currently in the stages of talking to his coordinator and I'm just about ready to book my surgery and would really like some patient feedback.

I have my consult w Dr. Gonzalez in 2 weeks. Im self pay. I live in Killeen. But how long til he gives me a surgery date? I'll also do the seminar the day after my consult visit.

I was able to find lots of happy patients of Dr. G. Also his patient coordinator, Shannon, is really fantastic and answered all of my questions promptly. I would have felt completely content having surgery with dr. Gonzalez, however I was able to find another good surgeon close enough that I can drive and not need to purchase airfare.

The only drawback on using Dr. G is that he requires two trips, one for consultation and seminar and then a second trip for the actual surgery. He will not do everything in one trip. For out-of-state patients, that is a huge inconvenience not only on time but on the wallet.

I chose Dr. Umbach in Las Vegas and have my surgery booked for 10/10.

Thanks for the info. Wow!!! Thats great!!! Keep me posted on ur surgery in October. As for me I'm super excited and I dont have a date yet. Lol. I keep hearing of people talk about all these ekg or egn tests. Do u think they'll do them on the day of surgery?

Someone at one of the support groups I attend used him, and I know they were happy with him!! Good luck!

I had my PCP do the EKG and labs just so I could get them out of the way and my insurance covered a portion. I would suggest doing as much leg work as you can before-hand because it helps move things along. I will keep you posted on my surgery. Please keep me posted as well.

I also live Killeen and was going to have surgery done at metroplex by Dr. S. my psych eval is Monday!!!

If you dont mind me asking how much is surgery at metroplex?

I haven't been told the price yet. I'm not self pay but I'd guess 12,000 or so but self pay is always cheaper.

Please keep me updated with your surgery. Ill do the same as well. Hopefully we could keep in contact since we both live in Killeen.
