"There are many fine physicians in San Antonio and we are honored to have been selected by our referring physicians and colleagues as among the city's best. We feel fortunate to live in San Antonio and have the opportunity to assist our patients in leading healthier lives by freeing them from obesity and its many co-morbidities," said Dr. Mickey Seger of BMI of Texas (http://www.bmioftexas.com).
BMI of Texas assists patients throughout their entire weight loss journey. After attending a free, educational seminar and learning about the various type of weight loss surgery, Texas patients are assigned a patient advocate to help coordinate paperwork and insurance stipulations necessary for surgical intervention. Post-operatively, the doctors continue to follow their patients to ensure long-term weight loss success.
Located in San Antonio's Medical Center area, BMI of Texas helps patients achieve their weight loss goals through various surgical procedures including gastric bypass, adjustable gastric band and sleeve gastrectomy. Additionally, the surgeons perform a full spectrum of advanced laparoscopic procedures, including laparoscopic Nissen Fundoplication (anti-reflux surgery), laparoscopic colon surgery, laparoscopic pancreatic surgery, and laparoscopic hernia surgeries.
