I am fixing to get banded soon. I was wondering if anyone has used Dr. Provost in Denton or Dallas area. I just want to know what you think of him and his staff.

Has anyone had any bad experiences or just all good. Let me know.

I am so sorry I didn't find your post earlier. I am using Dr. Provost, and I think he is wonderful. I first saw him a couple of years ago in Dallas, and I saw him in February of this year. I don't know his office help very well, but I do know about Dr. Provost. You could not ask for a better surgeon. He's been voted 1 of the best docs in TX every year for a long time now. My PCP here in Amarillo knows him and think he's the best there is. I did a lot of research on different doctors before I chose him. When he was at UT Southwestern in Dallas, he was the head of the bariatric practice, so I trust him totally. I have read a post from someone else who said they didn't like his insurance person nor his nurse, but I have barely met both of them. I hope this helps you.

Thank you soooo much for the info. I am waiting for the approval from Aetna right now. So we will wait and see.

Dr. Provost is a wonderful doctor and I would recommend him to anyone. HOWEVER, his staff is Awful! After 8 months of the run around with them, I finally had to go to a different surgeon. What they couldn't seem to get together has taken the new Doctor's staff less than 2 weeks to accomplish and I am scheduled for the 1st week of December.

Tdtucker...

I am so sorry that you had bad luck with Dr. Provost. I am so very happy with them. They always treat me with respect, and always happy to see me. I think I would talk to the office manager and let someone know.
