Dr. Cavazos in S.A. Texas

Has anyone used Dr. Cavazos at NE Baptist in San Antonio. I have a seminar with him tomorrow morning but haven't found anyone who actually used him and that makes me nervous. Also his website says he is a "fellowship-trained". I have no idea what that means but it also says he is the Medical Director of Bariatric Surgery at NE Baptist Hospital, I like how that sounds LOL. I hope someone can ease my mind about his and this hospital.

I also saw that Dr. Patel, Duperier, Pilcher, and Dr. Stegemann are also at NE Baptist. I can tell it's going to me a long night of research for me.

I too had a consultation with Dr. C.. he was very thorough and very knowledgable. He trained under the person who started doing the lapband here in the US... from what I understood in his presentation. My husband and I are both 95% sure we are getting the lapband from Dr. CAvazos. The best thing I can say is get a notepad and write down EVERY question you can think of, no matter how silly or redundent it may sound. This is YOUR life and there is nothing silly about being 100% informed before making such a big decision.

I am also using a dr. in SA but i'm with dr. wright at the NIX hospital, the staff is great and dr. wright is always there to answer any questions
