This OBGYN has no business performing laproscopic hysterectomy procedures. If you want to be butchered and left to fin for your own health then go to this doctor. If you value your life, your normal way of living then listen to this message. I'm an ex-patient that survived to tell the story of a bad doctor playing surgeon with absolutely no remorse for his wrong doing. The Texas Medical Board hides the bad doing of these so call doctors.

Dr. Lux, directed at you if I was a suicidal person I would've blew by brains out on your office door step and left a note stating look what you've done to my body with no normal way of living I have no other option. You took my insides out to make a XXXXXX Dollar. Are you happy now. God sees all and he will deal with you yet.

Dr Lux is a wonderful doctor. I have been a patient for at least 16 years. I have received excellent care. He also delivered two of my children & performed their circumcisions at the hospital after each delivery. My boys are 14 years apart.

I had a horrible experience with the office staff. Two people in particular, Julia & Dani were very unprofessional in handling a simple payment error.

Dr Lux is an outstanding doctor, but I plan to find another OB/GYN only because it is unacceptable to be outright disrespected by the office staff. I was treated horribly when I contacted the office in an attempt to clear a payment error and pay the amount due. This was for a surgery co-pay prepayment; the surgery had not taken place.

The staff was unable to communicate professionally on this occasion in September 2010.

I hope you have a much better experience.

My experience with Dr. Lux was extremely negative. I considered filing suit against the man for his beyond poor bedside manner but decided against the cost that would require. This man is not sensitive to a woman's vulnerability during extremely difficult situations. I endured an ectopic pregnancy. The choice to terminate was awful but this dr. had no problem treating the situation as a preferred termination and he even chose not to refer to our baby as a baby but instead called it fetus and tissue.

Upon follow up examination from surgery removing my fallopian tube that the ectopic pregnancy had grown in I had some questions and requests pertaining to the surgery. I had requested a photo knowing it would not be something fun to look at but I needed it for closure and personal records. Lux brushed off my first two requests before and shortly after surgery. I asked again at this follow up appointment and becuase my birthday had just passed this unfeeling Dr. tossed me my gorey open surgery photo and said "Happy Birthday". It was highly inappropriate. You do not hand a photo of a person's surgery removing their baby and say that. I only held my emotions in check becuase my firstborn-a toddler at the time-was present during this exam and she fed off my reactions.

I am not an expert, nor am I trained in medicine other than being CPR/First Aid certified. Dr. Lux spoke down to me as though I could not understand medical terminology. Another physican had seen me once during the ectopic and I had an internal ultra sound then. That ultra sound tech was angry about who knows what when she came in and did my ultra sound. I was emotionally unstable (then too I was on chemo in attempt to terminate very early pregnancy and naturally was distraught and grief struck. I did manage to behave normally and hold my feelings in check for appointments and this was no exception.) This tech made a mistake and after a super short ultra sound she shrugged off the issue and cleared me for normal activity. Unfortunatly that was wrong and the pregnancy had not stopped developing and subsequently I ended up in the worst pain of my life when I ruptured.

I asked Dr. Lux about that ultra sound technician's mistake. I mentioned how she'd been angry and preformed, at best, a very short ultra-sound-perfunctory only. I also wanted to know how she managed to miss a still growing ectopic pregnancy in my left fallopian tube. Dr. Lux said that the pregnancy would most likely have appeared like an ovary and would have been easy to mistake for an ovary at that time. I wanted to know why the tech hadn't clued into that since no woman has 3 ovaries. The witness intern and nurse also in the exam room with me both snickered and waited for Dr. Lux's response. He had really been talking down to me during this meeting and I was frustrated with his approach and his lack of empathy.

It was truly difficult to discuss all this matter because it was following an exmain in which I had to undress. I was not given the opportunity to re-dress before asking my questions. His manner was hurried. I suspect he was trying to hurry the appointment along to get to his next patient and keeping me naked would probably have hurried that along. What it did was leave me extremely vulnerable when I was already in a vulnerable emotional state of grief and loss. I did not appreciate having this entire discussion while naked and sketchily covered by paper. It is never fun but this particular time stands out to me in all of my medical history. I left that appointment further distraught than when I went in.

It took me a month to work through how I felt following that one appointment. Obviously it took longer to get through my grief but that was not his fault. DIfficult things happen to everyone and the outcome of that pregnancy wasn't his fault but the way he handled it was extremely poor.

I do not recommend this doctor to the very young, or for any risky pregnancies. I also would not recommend him to any first time gynocological visit patients as you would find yourself ill at ease for such a private sort of exam.
