What Makes Us Different

The NIX Health Care System has been providing quality care to patients in San Antonio and South Texas for over 75 years. However, what sets us apart is not what we do, but rather how we do it.

The NIX offers an integration of services that is unparalleled in South Texas. The wide variety of primary care physicians and specialists on staff at the NIX work together, providing each patient with continuity of care. Your primary care physician has direct access to your surgeon, your cardiologist, your orthopedist and your radiologist – all of whom work together under one roof to provide you with the best possible medical care.

Your physicians are here, the services you need are here, and we want the NIX to be the destination for all of your healthcare needs.

A weight loss clinic in San Antonio, Texas is not the same as a weight loss surgery center. What distinguishes Nix Weight Loss Surgery Center from a weight loss clinic is the decision to specialize in one procedure. The LAP-BAND procedure is the only procedure we perform and everyone at the facility is geared toward this particular surgery. When you come to support meetings, all patients have had the same operation by the same surgeons—which means consistent information and improved results.

There are several different procedures that are effective in weight loss. The surgeons at the NIX Weight Loss Surgery Center focus on performing the LAP-BAND System bariatric surgery in Texas. The LAP-BAND Adjustable Gastric Banding System is an FDA-approved procedure that is adjustable, reversible and typically performed laparoscopically. Laparoscopic surgery results in less post-op pain and a shorter recovery time. The LAP-BAND System procedure is considered the least traumatic of all weight loss surgeries because it involves no cutting or stapling of the stomach or re-routing of the intestines.
