lolarose13 147 Posted June 23, 2016 Gateway is a center of excellence I believe Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I had my surgery at St. Luke's Medical Center with Dr. Juarez.

vandernoordh 63 Posted June 23, 2016 That's where I'm thinking about going. I have already done my 6months supervised weight loss, my nut. visit, and my phsy visit. I just needed a comorbidity to be approved and now I have one; sleep apnea. I just can't get them to answer my emails at honor health.

disneynut1991 2 Posted January 11, 2017 I used Dr Sprunger. There were a few posts that did not like him but I loved him. I consulted with 3 different doctors and he was the only one that actually appeared to cared about my personal goals and that I actually succeeded. Because his office is small, there is no additional support within his office. If you want a NUT at your finger tips or a support group, he will not be the best choice for you. I didn't want that level of support so for me he was perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
