Well Tomorrow is a New Chat for Fun Chat for us to come together and exchange some ideas.

I have to be honest with you we are diligently working to find a meeting place so we can all sit face to face and discuss common WLS problems, comments and complaints. But out search is going a little slower then I expected.   But I have faith and a long list of contact numbers to call.  
They always tell me that under a pile of "S**T" there has to be a pony somewhere.  So I hope that at the end of this pile I do come up smelling like a rose.

See you Weds.

Very Well said. I couldnt agree more....I am sure the Flochs have brainwashed quite a few people since Dr. Ehrlich left. I am just sorry that who ever wrote that lost a wonderful doctor. I even heard that Dr. Ehrlich's patients were calling to ask about there appointments and they were told they needed to pick a new doctor. Also when this all unfolded around Thanksgiving, I had my appointment in place and FCB called me to change my appointment around and I asked if they could keep my 4:00 appt cause if I took the one they wanted me too I would have to leave work early and the said they COULD NOT, said I would have to take the 2:30, when I asked to speak with Becky,  they told me Dr. Ehrlich & Becky were no longer with the practice. Needless to say when I got home from work I had a message from Nicole with all the info on the new practice. So as far as I'm concerned shame on the Dr's Floch for trying to take his current patients from him, That is DIRTY and the poster before you is right I believe everyone gets whats coming to them. Dr Ehrlich and his staff are on there own and are much better for it...I think thats a great example of getting what they deserve......Dr. Ehrlich is a Wonderful Surgeon and were lucky to have him....

P.S. makes you wonder why someone would come on here with no picture and blast about Dr. Ehrlich, Could it be one of the doctors trying to ruin his good name.....Big Possibilty!!!! I think!!!!

I have all the the new contact information on Dr. Timothy Ehrlich's new practice.  His address and phone numbers.  Fairfield Bariatric Group (Dr. Neil Floch and Dr. Craig Floch)would not give out this information to "HIS" patients - which is against what the American Medical Association rule of ethics for when a doctor leaves a practice for any reason.  The group would not give me his phone number or any address to contact him.  This IS WRONG.  I would NEVER recommend the Fairfield Bariatric Group to anyone anymore after I had been denied information on my surgeon,  Information they had that they would not share with HIS patients.  They also did not let HIM have access to HIS list of HIS patients or their contact information and appointments that had already been made.  Effectively holding his patients hostage from him.  I am going to write to the Connecticut Attorney General concerning the way this practice treated me.  Please feel free to email me any questions or concerns you may have.  Dr. Timothy Ehrlich has an impeccable reputation - he didn't get to be the head of Bariatric Surgery at St. Vincent's without earning this position.  Most Sincerely,
NP (surgery 10/25/2009 - down 45 pounds)

11:45 - too bad!

I will be travelling out of state for WLS since I am self pay and costs for surgery in this state are beyond my means.  Anyway, when I get back I am hoping I can find a support group locally to meet and discuss WLS issues and concerns.  I am getting the sleeve. What do other people do in my situation?  Perhaps they just turn to online groups but thought I'd at least ask.

Thanks for your replies
