Anyone use him? I can't seem to find reviews, positive or negative on him. I find lots of really good reviews of Dr. Jawad, but I like Dr. Teixeira, and haven't met Dr. Jawad. I am thinking he must be pretty good, or Dr. Jawad wouldn't have him working for him. But I'd feel better finding a few reviews!

(this is Andre Teixeira, not Julio Teixiera, who has lots of reviews)

Dr Teixeira did my RNY on 12/8/14, I LOVE him!!!! I am an RN for over 20 years and not easily impressed. He is an extremely talented and compassionate doctor. I can be really annoying, (nurses make horrible patients) but he was always kind and kept his sense of humor, (which is a big plus for me, laughter is the best medicine) I credit him with "saving my life" (ok maybe we accomplished that together!!) I tipped the scales at 360 lbs shortly before surgery and today was 280, not bad for 15 weeks post op. He always answers my questions promptly, I really cannot praise him enough. Good choice and good luck with your journey!!!!

He's the best of best in Central Florida Orlando. He did my VGS on 6/3/13. He's genuienly cares about his patients, passionate about what he does and is always there to help or answer any questions. He has a great sense of humor and always has a smile. I totally recommend him without a doubt. If I had to relive this episode in my life - i'll do it with my eyes closed. I've lost a total of 95 lbs from 240lbs to currently 145lbs. I hope this helps and if you ever need anything - i'm just an email away. Hope all goes well.

Kind Regards,

Thanks all! I did have my surgery with him, and he was so caring and compassionate! I highly reccomend him. He also responds to my emails practically immediately, which is great when i have a question.

Thank you Katie for starting this thread. He's doing my surgery Monday August 10 and it's nice to see some good reviews. Maybe my butterfly's can settle some.
