Anyone from San Antonio use..

So I have tricare standard which does cover the procedure, and I happen to meet all the criteria. I was wondering if anyone in the South Texas area has used either Nilesh Patel or Ramiro "Sonny" Cavazos? Those are the two doctors that take my insurance that seem to have the best patient reviews (that I've found anyway). I would love any imput!

Thank you!

I have my RNY revision from Lapband scheduled with Dr Patel for June 26th. However, I am not happy with his office staff whatsoever. They are never the same people, the wait time for appts is horrendous and the insurance and scheduling folks are very unprofessional. So, I have an appt tomorrow with Dr. John Pilcher to see if I like his office better and I may switch doctors. I hope your experience is better than mine at Dr Patel.

Thanks for the reply. I got the same impression from Dr. Patel's office, so I went ahead and made an appt with dr. cavazos on Friday. The limited ontact I had with his office has been nothing but positive. I was very impressed with the insurance coordinator.

Today, I had a appt with Dr Pilcher and it was AMAZING!!! What a difference the staff and professionalism makes. I would highly, highly, highly recommend his office. I am on cloud 9-today.
