Dr. Spivak- Houston, TX

:) :) :bananajump:

Dr. Spivak is very thorough and answers all of your questions. He even has a couple of patients that have lost weight with the band come to the seminar to answer questions. I recommend him.

Dr. Spivak is doing my surgery on March 13. He even let me schedule before he had the money in his hand.

Sister, I have not read a single negative report about this man.

He was running late the day of my consult, and he also had a seminar scheduled. He came in and sat with me, patiently answering ALL of my questions, and even played with my 3 year old daughter for a minute. We had a nice little visit.

When I left the office, there were about 15-20 people waiting for the seminar to start, it was scheduled to start at 1 pm, it was about 1:20 or so when we left. He sat patiently through all of my questions, knowing that he had 15-20 potention patients(customers) waiting on him. The seminar was late starting due to the time he spent with ME! At no time did I feel rushed, or unwelcomed. He is a genuine, kind man. And I have only met him this one time!

Good luck on your adventure, maybe all of us on here who post regular will meet up for a fill at the surgery center!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
