I've used Dr. Hahn for other surgical procedures and was more than pleased. I've had a consultation with him about RYN (which is all he did at that time) while he was still in practice in Orange, TX and found he and his staff to be helpful and knowledgeable. I've also been looking into the Bariatric Center at Christus Hospital in Beaumont. Please let me know if you've used someone else and how it went as I'm just now starting the process to be approved for Lap Band (i.e. 6 mth doctors visits, diet and

medication counseling and weight loss program). LOL Can you tell I have BCBS?

dr. hahn did my surgery in march of 2006 and i lost 100 lbs. he is a great dr! he is very kind and patient. he isn't arrogant at all and his staff is wonderful. he is willing to do anything for his patients and answer any questions. i went to dr. spiegel at first and i found him arrogant and i felt rushed. dr. hahn is the opposite. i love dr. hahn and his staff! they also did my mom and my aunt's gastric bypass about 8 years ago and they are doing great! i'd recommend dr. hahn to anyone in southeast texas!

Meg, I have used Dr. Hahn in the past for a cyst removal surgery and I liked him also, I had spoken with him in the past about gastric bypass (my husband just didn't like the procedure) and I'm seriously thinking of changing. I hate to since we have already spent the 1000.00 with the Bariatric Center but I'm withholding judgement until I see how well they receive my sign off from the other doctor. I see my PCP this monday to schedule my EKG and any test she feels are needed. After that I only have one more appointment for my 6 months and I'm good to go.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
