I completely agree! I knew after the seminar he would be my choice.

He put in my band on 8/6 and repaired a hiatal hernia. I am thrilled with my choice. My recover has been going extremely well, and he cleared me for all soft foods today.

You don't happen to have a website or phone # for him, do you? I am in the very early stages of finding a doctor.

Dr. Nick is the best in the Dallas area! I drive an hour just to get to his office for every one of my visits because I believe he is the best! He put in my band on 4/1/10 and I couldn't happier! I am 118 pounds down and I only have about 40 more to go! His website is nicholsonclinic.com. It has all the info that you need to attend his seminar and get started on your path to bariatric surgery. He is extremely helpful in choosing which surgery you want and making it happen. Also, the other people who work in his office are great. The nurse, Bea, always remembers me and is super sweet and helpful as is Brittany his PA who does all of his fills.

I noticed on Dr. Nicholson's bio that it says "does not provide outpatient surgery". Does that mean that he makes you spend the night at the hospital after having lap band? Anybody know???

Omg!! I love him!! lol!!! and no not because he is helping me get rid of a problem I been struggling with for a long time like someone suggested all newbiews do. I really like him ( and believe me is hard for me to like a doctor I think most of them are snobs) because I think he genuinely cares about his patients. He does not make me feel unconfortable, or stupid,or anything like that. I'm 2 months post-op and have seen him twice for my two fiils and once I saw his assistant wich she is really nice too. On my surgery date I had it on the park-forest hospital the way they treated me could not have been better too. I'm such a big baby and I was happy with everything. His staff I think likes him alot too my nurse even said Dr. Nick is such a sweetheart. Most importantly he has been named top Dallas Doctor by D Magazine five years in a row, and he is the director of the bariatric surgey department of Plano Baylor Hospital. Do your ouw research he is a really good Doctor. I highly recommend him =) let me know what you decide. I also suggest you go to one of his seminars in Baylor Plano.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
