Patient Success Stories
Bariatric Surgery

My husband and I had gastric bypass surgery in 2004 by Dr. Houston and it has been the best decision of our lives. We were slowly dying from multiple obesity related conditions; but, 12 years later, we are healthy, happy, active, and enjoying life together. Thanks, Dr. Houston!*

I had gastric sleeve surgery in 2014. Finally, I am in control of what goes into my stomach every moment of every day. Two years later, the excess weight is shed and I am stronger, happier, and healthier than I ever dreamed possible. It is truly a privilege to be under the care of Dr. Hugh Houston and his team at Nashville Weight Loss Solutions.*

Gastric Balloon


I attribute my success to believing I was worth taking care of my body. My amazing friends encouraged me, reminded me that my worth was not a number, and helped me focus on making healthy choices NOT on the pounds I was losing. I feel like I finally found balance in my life!**

I've tried diets for over 30 years and nothing has helped. After talking with Dr. Houston, I decided to have the ORBERA® gastric balloon. It has been the best thing I have ever done and have lost over 65 lbs. in 6 months!**
