Davis Clinic in Houston



Recommended Posts

I had my initial consultation today with Dr. Davis, of the Davis Clinic here in Houston. I have a BMI of 39.6, 237 lbs at 5'5, and he's suggesting the Sleeve would be the best option for me. Anyone ever been to the Davis Clinic and had a Sleeve, and if so, how well are you doing with it?

I didn't go to the Davis clinic, but I had the sleeve. I was 41 bmi, and insurance required a 6 month supervised diet. At the end of the diet I was 36.5 going into surgery. I'm 2 months postop down 30lbs, and feeling great.

How's your intake been, are there times you can't keep food down or experience pains after eating or drinking??

Intake varies depending on the type of food I eat, but generally about 3oz. No pains eating or drinking. I've always keep food down, but I make sure when I'm full I stop eating.

I’m glad when I hear people are doing well, I’m always afraid I’ll be that one rare person who has a failed sleeve surgery [emoji33]

That is how I feel, like the VSG will work for others but not me. I had surgery 10/03 lost 26.4 lbs and still feel like I'm terrified of failing.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
