Houston hospital and Dr. Spivak



Recommended Posts

Hello, I am seriously considering the lapband procedure but was wondering if anyone knows which hospital would be better to go to when using Dr. Spivak. He seems to be the choice of most people in the houston area. Thanks for your help. I have so many questions!!!!

I used Dr. Spivak and had my surgery at Park Plaza hospital. Could not have been more pleased with all the staff at the hospital and Dr. Spivak! The surgery went great and his aftercare is wonderful. His office staff is also great and always willing to answer any and all questions you may have.

Good luck!

I had my band done by Dr. Spivak at Park Plaza, also. I had to stay a night at the hospital b/c of blood clot concerns and the staff was wonderful. Couldn't have ask for better care.

He operates at the Surgicenter off Main Street and also Park Plaza Hospital. I was told it depends on which day you have surgery as to where you are. I was at Park Plaza and it was a wonderful experience. You are going to LOVE Dr. S!

      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.
