Do you know a surgeon who follows patients who have had VSG in DFW area?  The only one I've heard is good is Dr. Castro but he charges $300 for mandatory test even though I am post-op.  Thanks

Where did you have your surgery?  It's really hard to find a surgeon that will take someone elses patient.  But I know my surgeon Dr. Wade Barker does the sleeve.  It never hurts to call and ask.

Dr Harry Meyers did my sleeve, but like Teena said above, it's sometimes difficult to get someone to follow up another surgeon's work.

Are you having problems that you need a bariatric surgeon or are you just looking for someone to do labs, etc.?  If that's the case your PCP should be able to handle anything like that.

Dr. Meyers offices at Medical City in Dallas and Presbyterian in Plano.

Dr. Daryl Stewart up in Denton I hear is good about taking other WLS patients for follow-up ..   He's very honest and has reasonable fees .. 

 You might also check with Dr. Alexander's offce in Dallas ... 

 Good luck ..

Call Dr Barkers office. He saw me and I had my band done in Mexico. I was having issues. And now I have a sleeve that he did for me.

Give them a call.

 Dr.David Kim does followups on the sleeve.   His office is in Colleyville.   Here is his phone number 817-581-6100.
