I used Dr. Fisher with Colorado Springs Surgical Associates, but would be comfortable with any of the surgeons there.
Good luck,
Holly

If you are looking for a primary care doctor I highly recommend my doctor...Dr. Brien Whittington.  If you are looking for a surgeon for WLS again I recommend mine...Dr. Roger Nagy at Colorado Springs Surgical Associates, but in reality any of the doctors at CSSA would be great.  Mine not only did my weight loss surgery, he took out my gall bladder 1 1/2 years later.  Good Luck

i too used Dr. Fisher at CSSA.  However you need to be prepared, they don't let you talk to the doc or even make an appointment with the do****il after you have attended a class about your desired surgery,  RNY or Lapband if you are not sure you have to go to both classes, given by the bariatric coordinator with Penrose hospital.  They will ask you if you have already atended the class when you call to make the appointment.  Also the classes can sometimes be hard to get into, I asked in April 2008 for a spot in the RNY class and had to wait until June 2008 for an open seat.  but after that things went pretty quickly.

RNY 10/14/08 LBL 6/14/11    135 pounds lost, after bounceback regain.  And I am OK with that.  It enabled me to have double hip double knee replacements in the 9 month periond between Oct 2011 and June 2012.

I went through Dr Yu in canon city for my lapband in 2005, and I am going back
on april 5th for a consult for a rny revision with Dr Timothy Brown at
Colorado Choice Bariatrics.
He has been doing wls surgery for 16 years.
