surgeon in Houston,tx



Recommended Posts

I feel the same way about true results, they were nice but not personable I did not meet my surgeon until the morning of my surgery and when I was having issues I was passed on to a nurse. They just lacked the personal attention you expect when having major surgery. Dr. Hollis was my Dr.

I used Dr. Alanis, he has been around awhile and had a great experience from the 1 visit on. I'm not sure how much he charges. He uses Bayshore and west Houston hospital I think. Hope that helps.

I went thru True Results but changed from Dr. Hollis to Dr. Christopher Reilly. I met Dr. Reilly during the PreOp appt, spoke on Endoscopy day, and right before Sleeve day. I watched his YouTube video and could just tell that he was in it for the patients. He has a wonderful bed side manner and took the time to answer all of my questions; luckily i switched from the band to the sleeve prior to surgery based on my conversation w him.

What ever you do DO NOT use Dr Spiegel. Biggest mistake my mother and I made in our lives! I'm I'm divorced and would still feel the doctor was biggest mistake lol. I was self pay too. I am now using UT physicians on bellaire. Seeing Dr Mehta, both Wilson's are great too!

Can I ask why? He is my doctor!

I looooved my surgeon! It was dr Matthew st Laurent located in cypress, tx. I drove about 45 mins just for him. He is totally worth it! I was also a self pay. He provides a nutritionist for you any time you feel you need her! His whole staff is amazing! I recommend him 100%!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
