Texas Laparoscopic Consultants Bariatric Center

Dr Scarborough is a good surgeon but his staff has ZERO communication skills. I’m three weeks post gastric bypass. I left work early because I was in pain, can’t keep anything down, very weak. I’ve called the office three times, once on Friday at 2pm (during business hours) and now twice on the weekend. No one has returned my call. I’m so disappointed at the lack of care from the nurses and staff. Do not use TLC if you want an office that will call you back!!!

Dr. Yu was great I had minimum scars and the surgery went well. The recovery has been great and he has been a great and caring surgeon. I have been truly blessed to go through this with him and his staff. Oh and by the way his nurse Brandi is the best in the world only she could have put up with me and my constant calling.

Having a single incision procedure is priceless! The surgery went without any issues, I feel better than expected. Highly recommend the doctor.

Dr. Yu did a wonderful job! He's very serious, but he is so knowledgable. I really appreciate how amazing he did with my surgery too. Highly recommend Dr Yu.

Dr. Yu is the most caring surgeon that I have ever encountered he goes over every thing step by step and makes sure that you understand what is about to take place.
I believe I was blessed to have met him and now he is a part of my life! :)

Dr. Sherman Yu is the best. He and his staff helped me gain my confidence back and will to be happy. Dr. Yu is a caring person who knows how to make anyone comfortable about having surgery. He is a compassionate person who truly wants the best for his patients. He helped me understand everything I needed to have a successful surgery. His staff and the hospital treated me first-class. I will always be grateful to Dr. Yu and his staff. If you are looking to have surgery I suggest you start with Dr. Yu, do more research on other doctors and I guarantee you will not find anyone better than Dr. Sherman Yu. He is the best in the business. I know this because I am a media strategist so I truly did my homework. I will post pics soon.

Love Dr. Yu. He shows such caring and compassion for his patients. He really listens to you and doesn't condemn or judge you. He provides information about the procedures and discuss which option would be best for you, but you have the ultimate decision. He tells you what is needed to reach your goal. A very caring person; great bedside manner. I recommend Dr. Yu to all family (mom and cousin), friends, and co-workers.

I haven't had my surgery yet but Dr. Scarbrough is awesome at putting you at easy. He did my endoscopy in clearance for the surgery. One minute we were all talking and the next I was being woken up in recovery. He talked me down from the Lap-Band ledge and talked me into the sleeve. He took the time to explain to me the sleeve and washed away all of my fears about getting the sleeve itself. His office staff is amazing. The only thing that wasn't in his office was the psych evaluation. Everything else from vitamins to nutritional classes are right there. And if you have to be stuck in a waiting room THIS is the one to be stuck in (rarely happens). His office is on the 9th floor and over looks the museum district.

They have a very detailed aftercare plan and at your pre-op appointment they schedule you for a free class called the First Bite class to attend after your 2 week follow up appointment. They breakdown what you can having during your 2 week pre-op diet and are very detailed in the post-op diet.

I had my VSG on December 11, 2013. Dr. Scarborough came in while I was in the pre-op area getting my IV and getting prepped. He calmed my nerves. I was in the hospital overnight and he made sure to check on me twice (I was out most of the time). He even called to check on me the day after I got home. His bedside manner can't be beat. I went for my 2 week post-op visit and was very disappointed that I hadn't lost any way. He assured me that I was still healing and my body was adjusting to the weight lost during the pre-op diet.

Dr Scarborough is the BEST!!!

I highly recommend Dr. Scarborough! He performed the Duodenal Switch on me and I feel wonderful! I am 5'7 1/2" in height and started at 270 pounds and lost 140 pounds within 6-8 months to achieve my goal weight of just under 130 pounds! I have had NO problems and am exceptionally healthy, slim, and toned now.

His office staff helped ensure everything was approved by insurance within a few weeks and all costs were covered 100% by insurance. His office and staff was very professional and comfortable.

Dr. Scarborough was just IDEAL as a doctor. I highly recommend Dr. Scarborough in general and the Duodenal Switch gastric bypass in particular.
