  1. Dr. Robert Davis of The Davis Clinic in Houston, Tx performed my sleeve surgery in Oct. 2012. He did a wonderful job. His staff is very nice, knowledgable, and they were sure to answer all of my questions, before, during, and after my experience. He also works out of Memorial Herman Memorial City, which is a center for excellence when it comes to bariactric surgery (the staff there was also great). I had some unforseen complications after surgery, which required me to return to the hospital for some additional weeks. Dr. Davis, and his staff, were very attentive, and have always been very patient. I'm very happy I chose him. He had a great bedside manner, not just with me, but was also very pleasant to my mom who stayed at the hospital with me. To this day, when I go to my follow-up appts, Dr. Davis remembers me, what I experienced, and asks about my mom (who lives out of state). That's important to me, because I never want to be just another patient. As for the process and getting my surgery date, it only took about three months. But this also depends on your keeping your appts, as well as the insurance requirements. Their office does require psych eval (which is onsite), meeting with nutritionist, and they do additional tests if you have sleep apnea, etc. In addition, if your insurance requires additional info, that has to be resubmitted. So the time from first appt to surgery can vary depending on each persons circumstances.

    Texas Gastric Sleeve Surgeons

    Dr. Robert Davis, founder of The Davis Clinic in Houston, Tx, is absolutely wonderful. He's a great surgeon, but his staff is also very nice, caring, and supportive. I struck gold when I chose him.

    Fab 40's shout out

    I am 43 yrs old, and was sleeved on Oct. 3, 2012. I am 5'5 and began my journey at 257 pounds. I am currently 188 pounds and loving it. In addition to steady weight loss, I am no longer taking meds for high blood pressure (yaay!!!). I live in Houston, Tx (West Houston), and would love to have a sleeve buddy in the area for support.
