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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
