Question:
Does anyone know of a competent surgeon for LAP RNY?

I am quite limited it seems in my choices for surgeons if I am to choose under preferred provider list with my insurance. None of the doctors except one is on WLS database. These are my choices, has anyone heard of any of these surgeons before in Houston? Dr. Robert Sasso, Dr. Robert Hillery, Dr. Ali Towhidi, Dr. Dario Zuniga, Dr. Ira Kasper, Dr. J Peyton Barnes Jr. , Dr. Oscar Frazier? Any info would be appreciated.    — Colette B.

I have CIGNA PPO and used Dr. Spivak in Baytown, he has another office also. I don't know where it is, but I beleive it's in Bellaire. He does LAP and has a website called LAP-SURGERY.com. He did an open RNY on me on 5-01-01. GOOD LUCK!!!
