Nicholson Clinic

Congratulations to Dr. Roshek on being named a Texas Super Doctor for 2022! This marks his 7th year being recognized and published in Texas Monthly magazine!

We are pleased to announce a new collaborative effort with Baylor Scott & White, one of the top healthcare systems in the country. As we transition some internal processes and technology, communication, reminders or billing may come directly from Baylor. Please be patient with us during this transition as we work through a new scheduling/patient platform and strive to provide superior patient support.

We are committed to the highest medical standards and will continue to operate at other top tier facilities throughout DFW to ensure patient choice to offer the best solution to each individual, both from an insurance/cost and safety perspective. As always, we put our patients’ well-being first.

Sincerely,

Dr. Nick Nicholson and the team at the Nicholson Clinic

A Bariatric Surgery Story

Weight loss surgery is effective, safe, and not extreme. The typical bariatric surgeon patient is a female age 35-50 and is about 100lbs overweight. Bariatric surgery is most often offered to patients who haven’t been able to lose weight on their own through diet and exercise.
For many, surgery is the tool needed to recalibrate their system by altering the hormones that stimulate weight gain. After surgery a body regulates itself to a new set point, allowing the patient to lose weight. They must follow the set post-op guidelines and maintenance plans to sustain the weight loss, but they are now able to achieve lasting success with the altered set-point.
Learn more about set point in this video.

A Bariatric Surgery Story Bariatric Surgery is Not an Extreme Solution to Treat Your Obesity.

Wishing you and your family a very happy and healthy Thanksgiving holiday! Our offices close today at 3PM CST and will reopen on Monday, November 28.
We hope you have a wonderful time celebrating all there is to be thankful for!

While weight loss medications can work for some in a controlled fashion, they can also be dangerous if prescribed via telehealth without the appropriate medical tests. It’s important to see a physician in person for a medical work up to make sure there are no underlying issues and it’s a safe, effective choice for you.
