"I first contacted my surgeon in May of 2006 after attending a conference at St. David's in Austin, TX. I was very happy at being able to get an appointment in only 2 days! Dr. Ganta was new to the area at that time but I was able to find him on the internet and read reviews about him and I was happy and felt very informed on my choice. His office is well established now and even though I do not have to follow up with him anymore I still have a little contact with the office due to the fact that he has also done surgery on my mother and sister. Dr. Ganta's aftercare diet was very strict but very effective. I know several people who have had bariatric surgery at another major hospital in central Texas. Their diet was very different and guess what....they did not lose the weight and keep it off the way I did by following Dr. Ganta's "rules".
I am a registered nurse and I "investigated" the gastric bypass surgery thoroughly before deciding to have it. I am EXTREMELY glad that I chose Dr. Ganta. To me, he is a life saver and I will remember him always. If in the future I ever need any kind of surgery that he is qualified to do I will definitely return to his care. On a scale of 1-10? He is a 20!!!!"
