I never saw Dr. Vierra. He is supposed to be great, but their is a waiting list for over a year...I have been trying to get this surgery for over a year already, Im not waiting for another. And I did some more research and Dr. Felix is renown in his field, with over 1700 gastric patients. So my consult is scheduled for the 25th!, next Tuesday!!!!!

I saw dr. Felix and his partner Dr. Swartz
they were both great. Dr. Swartz did my exam, asked me some questions, reviewed my chart a bit and then we were done. He was relaxed and funny. He also ran the seminar later that night. He was making jokes and relaxed during that as well. All in all, I was EXTREMELY pleased with their office. Negative, humm, well I had to drive 3 hours to see them, and found out that I will have to stay in a hotel for a week after surgery, that was negative. Oh yea, and the front office smelled awful! Too much fake spray, sweet and sickening. My mom and I both got headaches."
