I considered Dr. Benavides In Dallas (on Coit Rd) because I have a friend who used him and loved him, but used Dr. Wade Barker at Doctors Hospital at White Rock Lake because of his price. I am happy with him.

I used Dr Richard Benavides and he gets 2 thumbs up from me :angry_smile:

It was reassuring to me that he's done so many of them. I went to him based on a personal recommendation and every patient of his that I've spoken to have been nothing but pleased.

Good Luck in your search.

I used Dr. Cribbins in Plano. He is very nice and caring and goes the extra mile for you. He has great bed side manner. I have heard wonderful things about his partner Dr. Hamn as well.

I had my surgery in January of 08 and have been very impressed with Cribbins and his office. He has excellent bedside manner and really takes care of his patients. I highly recommend him.

I used Dr. Veninga, who practices at TLCEdge as well as Trinity Mills. He's great! He'll spend as much time as you need to make sure you understand the procedure as well as what to expect before and after. He went through a video of the actual surgery with me, explaining it in complete detail. TLCEdge is in Plano at the Prestonwood Surgery Center. Wonderful staff there!! Good luck!

Thanks for your post regarding Dr. Cribbins. I have not found anyone on the net so far that has used him. I was starting to get worried. I heard of an office named iVital and Dr. Cribbins does their surgeries, but had not found anyone that has experience with them or the surgeon.

I would highly recommend Dr. Marsden. I loved his fun but professional bedside manner.

My doc is Dr Marsden, he just happened to be the Doctor doing the AIGB/True Results seminar the night I went, and I was highly impressed with him, and he hasnt let me down since. Tons of experience, cardiology background prior to banding, wife is a doctor too, last published count I saw of his surgeries was a few years old and it was over 3,000 at that time - I would recommend him to anyone. You can see him anytime you want to, but aftercare such as support groups and Fills is through True Results, and my experience has been good with them too.

Best of luck to you in picking a surgeon that's right for you!

I live in Lewisville. I used Dr. Frank Felts. Nothing but greatness for him!! I strongly recommend him. Google Dr. Felts, do some research. I was banded May 7th. Good Luck .

      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'. ???

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
