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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
