Has anyone used Dr Nick (NicholsonClinic) or True Results in Dallas TX?



Recommended Posts

I am torn between two surgeons/clinics. I was wondering if anyone used Dr Nick in Plano tx or knows of anyone who has. Also, has anyone been to True Results Clinic or knows of anyone who has? I would just like some personal opinions as to what others experienced from either place. THANKS!

Yeah I went to his seminar and he was really friendly. even stayed late to answer all of my questions. after your first consult when did you start your testing? was it in his office/clinic or did he send you somewhere?

I am using Dr. Snow with True Results. He is in Hurst and I feel very confident with him. My surgery is this Friday at the surgical center in Hurst.

I'm self pay so I think my process is done a little differently. I bascially went to see him,he answered some questions I had, and then I picked my date. I picked the first week in Dec becuase i'm going on vacation in the middle of Nov. Didnt want to have my first fill the week before I went away just in case something went wrong. All I have to do is go get my blood work done 7-10 days before surgery. I guess it just depends on what your insurance wants. My surgery will be done at Forest Park medical center (75 and 635) not at baylor. This is becuase Forest Park is just a surgical center, mostly out pt. which allows the price to be a little cheaper as opposed to the private hospital. If you go through insurance I think it's done at Baylor. Hope all goes well for you! Let me know what happens!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
