Read about New Dimensions, a group of five surgeons who are committed to providing patients with outstanding lifelong surgical care, right here in San Antonio. We are experienced in several surgical procedures such as Gastric Bypass surgery, Adjustable Gastric Band, or Sleeve Gastrectomy - this spectrum of surgical procedures lets us choose the right approach for each individual patient. Essentially all of our surgical procedures are done laparoscopically (minimally invasive).
We help patients get insurance coverage for bariatric surgery whenever possible, and we are network providers for nearly every insurance plan. In case insurance does not cover surgery for you, we have several financing options available as well!
