I tried his office and they aren't in network with United Healthcare. :(

Bummer. He is really good. Do you have a list of who is? Maybe posting that will help and folks that used that Dr could report thoughts on them.

In addition to Nicholson I have also heard a lot of good things about Dr. Davidson. I think he is out of Dallas Presbyterian.

Dr. James Davidson at Presbyterian Hospital did my surgery in October. He is a wonderful surgeon and I haven't had any problems.

I went to Dr. Nirmal Jayaseelan (Dr. Jay) at the Dallas Bariatric Center. I also had UHC. He is rated top Doctor in Dallas many years running in D Magazine. Not only is he very personable, he is the nicest guy! I am so happy I chose him and HIGHLY recommend Dr. Jay!

Hi, I'm with Dr provost but he's in Denton. We also have UHC and Dr Nicholson is listed as in network with ours. Weird.

I had a great experience with Dr. Cribbins at Plano Presbyterian.

Dr. Manuel Castro at http://www.nbsurgical.com/ did mine at Methodist Hospital in Dallas. I see a United Healthcare logo on the front page of that site at the botttom, I went because a coworker and his wife were sleeved by him and were thrilled with the results and the aftercare.

Interestingly, I did my surgery rotation with Dr. Provost many years ago and he was one of the first bariatric surgeons in Dallas doing lap RNYs. Amazing surgeon. I had mine done by Michael Lee out of UT Southwestern because of the financial agreement between UTSW and our hospital. He was flat out amazing and I have had no problems. Shoot me a text if you want his contact info.

      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
