San Antonio Doctors



Recommended Posts

Hi all -

Curious if anyone has experience/recommendations/etc. for providers in San Antonio, TX? I am at the very beginning of my research into my options. Not sure if it makes a difference but I would be paying out of pocket.

Thanks

mayo Hospital, Dr. Stephen Bowers, over 1000 bariatric surgeries. During my surgery he found a hiatel hernia and repaired it as well. No pain after surgery, some discomfort was noted. Highly recommend this doctor.

When searching for a good dr, find out how many surgeries he has done. The more the doctor has done indicates his experience. You want a doctor who had done quit a bit. A doctor may say he can do it, however how many had he or she done? You do not want to be the person they are practicing on.

Thanks for the reply. It looks like Dr. Bowers is in FL? I should have been more clear; I am in San Antonio, TX. My mistake.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
