Anyone from Houston, TX?

Hi, was wondering if anyone is from Houston currently starting preop diet?! My surgeon is Dr. Robert Davis and I start my preop on the 5th of July. [emoji4]

      I am doing great! I haven't had any struggles. Fortunately, The Davis Clinic only requires 40 grams of protein per day. Dr. Primomo stresses fruit, veggies, and fish. My menus tonight is sea bass gril

      I had my surgery 03/01/16 by dr. Primomo. Best doctor ever. Couldn't speak more highly of the team there. You're in good hands at that clinic Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

      Dr. Primomo and his assistant are the best. I had an old Molina band that was placed in 1996. It had eroded my stomach and adhered to my spleen and liver. My surgery lasted almost 4 hours. Dr. Primomo

    I had to do 6 months and it's been over for a while now, I just had to wait until my mom would be off for summer to help me out with my kids. I only lost 10 pounds during it

    Thank you for the positive feedback about Primomo - he is scheduled to be my surgeon as well when insurance allows the surgery.

    Dr. Primomo and his assistant are the best. I had an old Molina band that was placed in 1996. It had eroded my stomach and adhered to my spleen and liver. My surgery lasted almost 4 hours. Dr. Primomo was able to get the band out and revise to RNY. Surgery was on a Wednesday. I came home on Friday and cooked dinner for my family on Sunday and trimmed my rose bushes. Lol....

    @@cinand38 Thank you for your insight about Primomo. You have been through a lot. Congratulations on successful surgery. How long ago was your surgery with him?

    Dr. Primomo is so kind and easy to talk to. It has been a blessing working with him so far and look forward to sharing equally positive surgery stories after.
