need recommendation in Katy TX



Recommended Posts

Would you be willing to go to Victoria? There is a Center of Excellence for Bariatric surgery there at Citizens Medical Center. There is an entire wing of the hospital there devoted to bariatric surgery. I had mine done there and have no complaints what so ever. Dr. Craig Chang is my surgeon and my hero. He's wonderful and is CERTIFIED. Many doctors do bariatric surgery but are not certified in it. This hospital is also fully equipped and furnished with the bariatric patient in mind. Chairs, beds, gowns, pressure cuffs, etc. that actually FIT. The Center is incredible. If you can, run down there and take a tour. They are happy to do it. I highly recommend him, if you dont mind a little drive. I drive from Corpus Christi, and don't mind in the least to have top notch care and facilities. I'm doing great and have had minimal problems. Dr. Chang is very approachable and very caring.

I use Dr. Ricardo Bonnor. His office is on Kingsland Road (Texas Endosurgery Associates), across from the Metro Park and Ride. He performs surgeries at Memorial Hermann Katy, Christus St. Catherine, and Memorial Hermann Memorial City, which is a Center of Excellence and where I had my Band put in.

He believes in a team approach, and has a Nutritionist and Life Coach who schedule appointments in his office. The Life Coach also hosts a support group monthly. Dr. Bonnor is very personable and so far has really listened to my questions and concerns, and has been straightforward and honest, but caring. (Plus, he's easy on the eyes :P Important point, huh? lol) His office staff is great too.

Hope this helps!
