Any Texas Gastric Sleeve Buddies?



Recommended Posts

I loved Dr Kuhn & George. I have had multiple abdominal surgeries & I saw eight surgeons in the DFW area. (Kim, Idhe, Barker, Veninga, Roy, Alexander, Benevinedes, and Kuhn). This was a two year journey for me. Band, By-Pass, or Sleeve and could it be done laproscopically. Dr Kuhn was the only one who would even try to do it that way, which saved me $10K and a week in the hospital.

He is the most experienced surgeon in DFW. He pioneered band to sleeve revision. I can't say enough good things.

Medical City is great also.

I had a very positive experience.

Can I join in? I'm in Houston (Humble/Atascocita area) and planned to be sleeved this summer by Dr. Richard Collier in The Woodlands/Conroe. Have to wait to see if some job interview work out before setting a date.

Anyone use Dr. Collier? Most of the Houstonians didn't say who their surgeon was.

I am in Houston - NW in Cyfair.

My doc was Ata Ahmad...I wouldnt recommend him but he wasn't bad - just not as good as I expected.

I was sleeved 1/4/12 and hit Onderland yesterday. Would love walking buddies, even if only occasionally!

I'm in Houston. Going to Dr. Alvarez in June....

What day? My sister and I are going to Dr. Alvarez June 1. We are looking for people that might be there at that time. She is having the surgery and I am just going to comfort her. I had mine 8.5 months ago.
