Who We Are

South Texas Surgeons was founded in 2003 by Dr. J. Keith Wright and Dr. Gerardo E. Cárcamo, board-certified San Antonio general surgeons who specialize in minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery.

Recognized as two of the nation’s premier bariatric surgeons, they have safely performed more than 10.000 weight loss procedures. Among the first in the U.S. to offer the non-surgical Orbera gastric balloon procedure, they perform LAP-BAND®, gastric sleeve, gastric bypass, duodenal switch, vBloc procedures and more.

Surgical treatment for diseases of the stomach, colon, gallbladder, spleen, skin, and abdominal wall (hernia) are also available, utilizing open and robotically assisted surgical techniques.

In addition to surgical procedures, South Texas Surgeons offers long-term nutritional and psychological support for weight loss surgery patients as well as aftercare to patients who have had procedures at True Results facilities.
