Moving to Sac area...

Hi guys, can anyone in the Sac area recommend a good WLS surgeon for follow up care who is with Sutter health? We are relocating to the Roseville area at the end of Dec. I would also love to find some walking buddies in that area as I've gotten off track and need to get back on board...thanks!

Hi there - welcome to Sacramento/Roseville.  I am actually in the Natomas area (near the airport and Arco/Sleeptrain arena).  I am in the pre-pre stages of weight loss surgery and have consulted with my surgeon twice now.  He has many accolades and is very well known.  His name is Steven Patchings, MD, and he is with Sutter.  Good luck and let me know if I can help any further.  Joy

Also in Natomas area fair near I-5 and Arena. Not with Sutter so no help there. Had my surgery ( DS ) in Feb. down 130 pounds since surgery and 159 since orientation. Just sending welcomes and a hello

Please, please, please make an appointment to see Donald Waldrep.  I met with four other surgeons before I found him - he is truly the best!

 

Here is a link to his info:  http://www.salsa.md/DrWaldrep.html

 

Good luck!
