Has anyone used Dr. Naaman from Houston, Texas? If so, could you please share your experience with me.

Thanks,

I am one of Dr. Naaman's patients. I was referred to him by a friend who had bypass. The staff was much more helpful than the other doctors. I will tell you atleast from my experience you won't see much of him. I had 1 or 2 meetings with him prior to surgery and then once after. I'm probably not a good source for things like this cause I'm not one to ask many questions.

You will mostly deal with Dr. Naaman's assistant Julius after the surgery. I really like Julius and he is always available to answer any questions.

I went for my first fill this week and Julius is the person that does them. The whole fill process took about 45sec and was pretty much pain free.

The finance/insurance person (her name escapes me) very clearly explained the entire process to us and said she would help us through and issues we had with billing/insurance etc... Thankfully we didn't have any so it wasn't necessary.

I would definitely recommend him. I've had a great experience. My wife is now in the process of having lap band surgery by Dr. Naaman.

i do not know anything about dr Naaman, but i actually came from northern maine to houston tx to be banded by Dr Mattew J St Laurent. I checked his stats online and talked to some other of his patients. He answers all his own email, and will call you back if you call him. He does all his own fills, and is very patient oriented. he is actually licensed with the manufacturers of the inamed band to teach other dr's the proceedure. Hes done over 1500 of them. Just throwing this out there....
