Dr Victor Gonzalez Dallas, TX



Recommended Posts

I liked him. I went in with a whole page of questions and he answered them all to my satisfaction. He did tell me about the fellowship in California. He hasn't done all that many bands (in comparison) but I think he's definitely qualified.

I found him through TLC Medical Edge. It's a few facility in Plano that several surgeons are using.

I plan on doing a little more research on him over the next couple of days but so far I am pleased

Have you seen him yet?

He has a really thourough seminar. Most Doctors I found out do not present, they usually have an assistant or someone from there staff. Thats what I was expecting. A question and answer part hand out. After wards I felt more I knew what to expect. I now that he is educated in the states. I found that many are not. What else have you found out?

I don't think he's done that many lap bands (in comparison) probably around 200 but he done many other bariatric surgeries. I know he did some training in El Paso and then his fellowship in Fresno, CA (I think). I liked him and feel really comfortable with him. Do you know the cost of his fills? I get 6 months of free fills and then I have to pay for them. Are you going to do the band? If so, do you have a date? What facility?

I absolutely loved Dr. Gonzalez. My consult with him went very well and his office staff treated me very good. He answered all my questions and I felt he was very thorough. I feel like I'm going to be in very good hands. Wish more doctors were as kind and considerate as he was. You can tell he really cares about his patients:)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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!
