Dr Clayton Frenzel



Recommended Posts

Hi, I am a Dr. Clayton Frenzel patient. I was sleeved on the 11th, I will be 1 week post op on Friday. I had my procedure at the Frisco Medical Facility by Frenzel and the staff there gave him great reviews for completing surgeries and patients having speedy recoveries. I personally am doing well, no complaints and was up immediately walking around the facility. Be Blessed should you decide to go with him.

I had a consult with him and could never get his staff in Arlington to return my phone calls!! It got so frustrating that I just decided to look elsewhere. I also found very little feedback on this forum or OH about him so that was part of my decision as well. I'm glad you had a great experience with him! Best of luck!

I'm scheduled for the 22nd, but haven't been able to find much info about him. Most of the success stories on his web page our his employees. Just wish I knew someone that was sleeved by him.

I did, I was sleeved 1/22/13 by Dr Frenzel and have lost 73 lbs. I really liked Dr Frenzel, very professional & I have had no complications at all.

I had an appt with him last friday on 10/24/14 at his Arlington location. I was not very impressed with his staff, it seems they have new staff and are very lost.

Since my insurance doesn't cover bariatric surgery, I was informed that I can do their hiatal program for $3500 (this was over the telephone information)

When I met with their insurance person, she did not seem to know how much I was really going to pay out of pocket. She informed me that I will have to use Texas General Hospital to have the procedure done, well I know that hospital is NOT in my network, so I asked them how will that work. The answer I got was they don't know but for me not to worry because I can always work a payment plan-- I was like WTH?? Anyways, I have left several messages with the office manager and it's been almost a week and she has not returned my phone call. I'm just in the air waiting to get an answer from someone.

Anyways, Did any of you did his Hiatal Hernia program? If you did, was it done at Texas General Hospital in Grand Prairie? How much out of pocket did you pay?

Thank you in advance for your responses.

I used Forest Park & was covered by insurance. His staff has become very overwhelmed lately. Just continue to call until you get someone. As far as Dr Frenzel is a very good surgeon.

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
