Any Houston TX sleevers.. Who's your surgeon?



Recommended Posts

I did my research.. My Ob-gyn and my primary doctor both suggested Dr. Hollis in the Houston area. They said he was the best. Trying to go directly through him never happened. His schedule is so tight and I could get no appt. So I decided to go through true results. The day I went to true results I had 80% of what I needed done. In one day. It was so fast. After they sent the case to dr Hollis' office it just became a waiting game. I called them almost every day. I met the nurse practitioner for about 20 mins in a group meeting about 2 wks before my surgery, then that same day I met the dr. In the same group meeting for about 10 mins. I didnt see him again until the day of the surgery for about 5 mins and that was it. Everyone talks about having a NUT.. I don't think I have one! Everytime I have questions I have to call the nurse practitioner and like she stated the day we met, "Don't call me over silly stuff!" .... So I try not to call.. I wonder if it would have been different If I went directly through him..

Dr. Bonner in Katy has been taking care of my Husband. He works at Memorial Hermann Memorial city. He took my husband in after he had a complication from his sleeve in Mexico. What a dedicated meticulous man! I spoke with all the nurses and even anesthesiologists who jave worked with him and they all say the same thing. He is dedicated, very particular about his method, and thorough. I have five kids and am happy to know I have such a doctor working on my husband. Btw...Marvin, Ponce, TLC wouldn't even talk to me when I called to see if they could help my hubby. He was hospitalized for over 51 days...Dr. Bonner was the first to take the time and help.

Sleeved on 9/11, exactly two weeks ago. EXTREMELY HAPPY with TLC and Dr. Scarborough. Even better is University General Hospital on Fanin. That hospital has 70 beds and very patient-oriented care. Amazing hospital.

Dr. Darry Meyer in Lufkin, is a rock star ! I realize that is a 2 hour drive for some of you, but he and his team are on top of everything. His coordinator sent my paperwork in to BCBS Texas the day I finished my required 3 month waiting game, which made me get approval 7 days later. Awesome staff, and Dr. Meyer is well known for his expertise.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
