Has anyone used Dr Ricardo Bonner in Katy TX? I am trying to find a good doctor in the west houston area. I am also considering self pay so that I dont have to jump thru insurance hoops . Please let me know if you have any advice or info about doctors . :thumbdown:

Hi. I live in Albuquerque New Mexico and no one here does Lapband surgery. I flew to Houston to have my surgery done. I went to True Results and Dr. Ken Hollis did my surgery. I am so happy that this is where my weight loss journey lead me. Dr. Hollis has been great and the staff at True Results have been helpful, kind, and supportive. I am coming back to Houston this Wednesday for my 4th fill. I paid for my surgery because like you, I did not want to go through the insurance hoops. The surgery/aftercare package that I got at TR was a good deal. So I got great care AND a good deal - who could ask for anything more? Good luck to you. Becky

I went to Dr. Bonner's Seminar a few weeks ago. I thought he was ok, he seems like a dr that likes facts and statistics. i have made an appt to see him for consultation next week . I hope it all works out, I really feel like this is my last shot at being healthier.

Good luck to you!! I think it is important to feel comfortable with your surgeon. I'm glad you have an appointment. Won't be long now. Take care. Becky

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
