Need a Doc for Follow-up in NC

[Guest guest]

Hopefully, someone out there can give me the name of a good doc for

the Raleigh, NC area. I am more than three years postop and have

moved from the Washington. DC area where there were many primary care

docs and surgeons avaialable. I now need a primary care doc, and

hopefully a surgeon,in the Raleigh area who can deal with my

redesigned innards and special nutritional needs. The 4 different

physician referral lines I spoke to responded with a " duh? " when I

told them I needed someone with bariatric and nutritional background.

Can any one help me with a referral? Send me an email at

Rick, I don't have any referrals for NC. However, you might want to call

a few doctors and ask. The other thing is that neither of my doctors

have experience with wls. I am having to train them big time. One is a

lot more teachable. The other is finally coming around. I really hate

going to a physician who thinks they know more about my body then I do.

So, it may just be that you have to find a doctor you like and train them

properly.
