I live in the ATX area but I chose to have surgery in Plano with Dr. Scott Stowers. My coordinator was Alex and she was awesome and the staff and process was extremely easy and efficient.

I chose Dr. Stowers with Evolve because of his reputation and the fact that he only does weight loss.

I had my surgery December 26th, 2018 with Dr. Reddy from Dr. Patels office. I work out the Killeen, Tx office but still had to travel to San Antonio for surgery. Dr. Reddy is awesome and the surgery went very well. Yes his office staff is terrible and you really have to push to get things done. Now that I have had the surgery, it doesn't bother me as much as I have crossed the finish line and I just don't have expectations of his staff. The Doctor is great.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
