I've heard great things about Dr. Garth @tellej12 He has a vegetarian Facebook page and electronic presence with lots of positive information. It is good to see another with the Davis Clinic!

I had my surgery 03/01/16 by dr. Primomo. Best doctor ever. Couldn't speak more highly of the team there. You're in good hands at that clinic

Houston checking in... my surgeon is Robert's son, Garth. Couldn't be happier with my choice in clinic/surgeon. Best decision I ever made to have the surgery. You are in good hands!

Let me know if you ladies have any specific questions. I don't know how the other docs are, but Garth is very big on recommending a vegan diet. It can be a bit difficult at times since probably 99% of the WLS docs out there push a high Protein (from meat/dairy) diet. there is a good WLS vegetarian group on Facebook that I'd recommend jointing if you are going that route... you can ask anything on there and get good feedback quickly.

      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.
