I had my initial surgical consult with Dr. Houston on June 19, 2008. I found him to be a very pleasant individual. He took the time with me to go over different options of WLS. We decided that Gastric Bypass would be the best for me. He discussed with me the risks and benefits of surgery. He stressed the importance of this surgery being a lifelong commitment. We also discussed the importance of pre op as well as post op support and aftercare. He seemed very competent. I could tell he genuinely cares for his patients.
My initial opinion of Dr Houston was confirmed after my surgery. I was operated on 7/14/08. The surgery went really well. I could not have expected anything more from a surgeon. Following the surgery Dr Houston checked on me twice a day while I was in the hospital....

I have nothing but good feeling towards Dr Houston and the treatment and care I received from the staff at Centennial Medical Center.

Doctor Houston's stats where the big draw for me. I met with several CCTO patients before I made up my mind on a Hospital & Doctor, Most of them recomended CMC & Doctor Houston. The aftercare program was/is the best I have seen, follow up is a key to this tool that I have received from Houston. Two thumbs up for CCTO & Dr. Houston. Posted on 07/12/2008 |

I am new and had my surgeon consult with Dr. Houston on June 19. I was very much impressed with the information I received at the consult. I wasn't sure going in if I was having the lap band or RNY and Dr. Houston guided me with information to make my own decision. I appreciated his input. He was nice and you felt comfortable with him immediately. On July 1, I complete my 6 month supervised diet for insurance. Posted on 06/24/2008 |

Dr. Houston is a wonderful and caring surgeon. I didn't have any complications. His office staff is wonderful also. I really felt that he cared. When I got home from the hospital after having my lap-band surgery, I had a question after hours. He called me back quickly, and answered it. I had my surgery on Feb. 11th, and have been great. He's a great surgeon. Posted on 06/11/2008 |

Dr. Houston is an excellent surgeon. He is very passionate about his work, and cares about his patients. He is very direct and thorough, providing all the information to help his patients make an informed choice. He even has a great sense of (dry) humor. His staff, Holly, is incredible. I highly recommend Dr. Houston and the Centennial Center for the Treatment of Obesity. Posted on 05/23/2008 |

I believe Dr. Houston to be a very competent surgeon. Even though my BMI was very high he was still able to do my RNY laproscopically. Dr. Houston is a "to the point" kind of doctor. He tells it like it is and I am very OK with that. He did a great job on my surgery and that's all a patient can ask for because everything else is up to me using the tool he provided. His office staff are friendly and very prompt about getting answers and returning phone calls. I have nothing negative to say about Dr. Houston or his staff. They did an excellent job.

I had a very unique situation -- Dr. Houston did my sister's RNY fourteen months before my surgery. I was at the hospital for her surgery and thus saw first hand Dr. Houston's skill and bedside manner (genuine). I also made several followup visits with her. I felt she had excellent care and was super impressed with the aftercare program. Five months after her surgery, we attended one of Dr. Houston's seminars. I was extremely impressed with his presentation -- very confident and comprehensive. My choice of a surgeon was a "no brainer". I'm only 2 1/2 weeks out, but no problems. I sincerely believe I was in great hands and would recommend him to anyone.
Something I really appreciated was the "old mother hen" protectiveness he has with his surgical patients. He just has a... [Click here for more] way of putting the patient at ease.

I was very impressed with DR Houston. This was something I had been thinking about for three years. It finally got to the point where my health was going down hill quickly. Dr Houston was the second Doctor that I had seen. The first Doctor was not very sure if I could even have the surgery. I have had two previous surgery in my stomach area and that causes a promblem for the surgery. Dr Houston was very straight forward with me and told me that it could be done. That it would be a very hard surgery to complete, but that it could be done. I finally felt like I had hope. I feel like Dr Houston has saved my life. I trust him and know that he will take good care of me. Posted on 04/27/2008 |

I have found Dr. Hugh Houston to be very professional and matter of fact. Everyone is different but for me, I want a surgeon that is confident and a bit arrogant about his profession. I have found Dr. Houston to be both kind and to the point, he does not candy coat things, he'll let you know that it won't be easy but if you follow his lead he'll get you to your goal. I find the office staff especially Holly to be very helpful. The aftercare program is just beginning for me but so far I have met with the dietician and that was very positive. Posted on 04/20/2008 |
