Doctor in Dallas?

I used Dr. Fox of Richardson.. two things I love about him are: He has his folks do the South Beach diet 10 days before surgery instead of the liquid diet. You lose weight and learn to eat right. He doesn't believe in starving his patients on a liquid diet when you can eat chicken, veggies, and stuff like this and get the same results. He's very nice...and overall an awesome doctor..... but there are several wonderful doctors in the D/FW area... like Dr. Jayseelan, Dr. Marsden, Dr. Smith and so forth... You're probably pretty safe with any doctor from True Results...

I used Dr. Hamn, and I've been very pleased! His office has been wonderful and patient with me as I've asked a lot of questions. Good luck in your choice. What I will tell you is that you need to be comfortable with your surgeon. This will be a long relationship, and you need to feel a connection with him/her.
