"I was not on the floor that most WLS patients are placed on and I think that made a difference in my care. I was not *told* to walk or breathe or cough or anything. I did these things on my own. The dietary department was TERRIBLE! They brought inappropriate meals every single time (sugar, solids when I needed liquids!) The nurses were very busy. I felt sorry for them. I know it wasn't their fault. I was glad to get home. It wasn't a very pleasant experience. "
"I really, really liked Dr. Wongsa. He was very upfront about the risks of surgery and came well recommended. He seems to not only be a gifted surgeon but he has a great bedside manner. I feel confident in my decision to use him. I cannot say enough about Ruth on his office staff! She is absolutely awesome! I had some problems with Cy Fair hospital in the beginning. They wanted me to pay $10 K due to them being out of network for my insurance. I was so upset thinking that I was going to have to switch surgeons. Ruth called and cleared this up for me without me asking...and I am going to be able to have my surgery at Cy Fair. Everytime I've called, she has taken the time to talk to me without rushing and has been very patient. When I went for my medical clearance at a PCP, the Nurse Practicioner said she had surgery with Dr. Wongsa in August. She has lost 96 lbs. and is doing very well. She has 12 patients that have used Dr. Wongsa as well. So far, I am very pleased and will update more after surgery. "
