New Doctor, Oh My

Hey folks -

I'm almost 10 years out of lap-band, 7 years out of treatment for Anorexia and I need to re-engage with a surgeon. For one, because I haven't had my band checked in eons (had a pretty ****ty last few appointments with my surgeon who told me to keep starving myself and throwing up, etc).

I have been gaining weight for the past several years and have done everything possible short of seeing a surgeon to re-fill or consider a revision
.

I'm hoping someone knows someone fabulous in or around Los Angeles. I'm pretty skeptical after my experiences that there are bariatric surgeons who are sensitive, but I'm pretty sure there have to be.
