Does anyone have Dr Hollis in Houston as their doctor?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on 8/26 and every time I call to ask about what I can eat during each diet phase I never receive a call back. The list he gave me, or the nurse practitioner, is very limited and doesn't really say anything! I went to my post op appt with the nurse practitioner and still no answers. Wondering if anyone already went through this and can give me some info or maybe has gotten some answers.. Thank you so much!

I am familiar with him but did not use him because of his bad reviews.

There was a girl who was on a thread i started a few days ago who did use him. Where were you sleeved SEM? If so can you contact the nutritionist?

I was sleeved at university general hospital.. He was recommended by both my gynecologist and primary doctor but I have seen him twice for a total of about ten mins.. I wish they could help me out because I'm scared to eat something I'm not supposed to.. so disappointed.. And to answer the other question about weight loss, my pre-op I lost about 19lbs and after surgery I am at a total of 18lb so total of 37lbs.. I feel hungry.. and all the weight is from everywhere except my stomach... my clothes are huge on my legs but still a little tight on my stomach.. I start my puree week monday.. not sure on what to eat :(

His office staff and especially Nurse Beth are the worst I have ever dealt with. I wish I would have known, I would have never used him. I would look for other options and NEVER put you health in the hands of anyone in Dr. Hollis' office, because once he is done with the surgery, that is the last you will see of him.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
