VSGnewguy 164 Posted November 18, 2017 I have not had my surgery yet, but my surgeon is Dr. Matthew St. Laurent at Northwest Endo Surgical. I've been impressed with his staff and particularly with how much time Dr. St. Laurent is willing to spend with his patients. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone I haven't listed?Dr. Marvin has worked on me and both of my sisters. His bedside manner is professional yet caring. I had 4 abdominal surgeries prior to the sleeve and he did a terrific job. Minimal scaring and I was feeling better by week 2. I would definitely give Dr. Marvin a try.Sent from my SM-G935V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JosieK 120 Posted November 19, 2017 Dr Erik Wilson. I just had my lap band removed yesterday after having it 10 years. He’s holding off doing the sleeve because my slip was so bad. Everyone at the surgery center raves about him. He’s efficient, smart and have a great bedside manner He’s at 6700 west loop south suite 500UT professional bldgBellaire Tx 1 belinda401 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
