Concerns...i Have To Go To Houston For Surgery Becasue Of Insurance



Recommended Posts

I am worried....I live near San Antonio and I am a teacher. I have BCBS-TRS and they only accept surgery from a Blue Distinction hospital. Inow must go to Houston and have surgery with Dr. Davis. It is scary not to be home in case something happens to me and my loved ones will be 4 hours away. Also, I have been approved and met my requirements with Dr. Patel but nw I must meet with Dr. Davis on October 30, 2012. I hope to have surgery before Thanksgiving. Has any used Dr. Davis? Any thoughts would be great!

Which one? The dad or the son? I have a friend that had the dad for a RNY a few years ago at The Methodist Hospital, when they were on the reality show "Big Medicine". She said he had an amazing bedside manner, and was so supportive in the clinic. Try to relax, these guys have many years of experience in bariatric medicine and surgery.

I am going to have the surgery with the son, Garth. I trust that they are great doctors I just hate that I can not hae the surgery in San Antonio. It would make things so much easier. I have two small kids anndjust trying to get everyone adjusted is difficult. I see that yor stats are close to mine..how are you doing since surgery?

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
