Cardiologists in Wilmington

 Hi Elissa.

Oh my!  Now I have such good choices.  I'm going to have to make a decision fairly soon.   I like your idea about having the new cardiologist schedule the tests. but as far as the stress test is concerned, that's scheduled for this thursday, so I'll go thru that, but this week I'll be making an appointment to see either Dr. Adeleke or Pastore and have them schedule the sleep study, if they feel it's necessary.  

Check with the Dr you choose to see if he will accept the other Dr's stress test 1st. No sense in waisting time & money.  Will be worth the phone call.  When I had my knees done in Philly, I had to get a Dr there to see me cause they wouldn't accept the stress test from Delaware. Also they wanted a DR on staff in case there was any issues. Pastore has both the treadmill and the nuclear stress test in their office near the hospital in Christiana. I scheduled fairly quickly. There was a 3 month wait for Adeleke and the other Dr.  Took me over 9 months to get all the clearances and classes in.

 Thanks for the advice.  I'll make the calls tomorrow.              

Hi Nina,
Sounds like you have some good choices for your heart doctor.
I used Dr. Marmo, He was very quick to give me an appointment, did an EKG and stress test.  Cleared me with no problems.  Don't settle for less than the best!
Good luck!

 So true Judy.    This morning I called the other cardiologist, cancelled the tests he ordered for me and FIRED him!   Then I called my surgeon's office and made an appointment to meet with Dr. Adeleke.  I see him next month on the 15th.  Really looking forward to the appointment!!  Slowly but surely, things are falling into place. 

It baffles me that a cardiologis of all doctors would be against WLS, but I guess to each their own.

 Well, this particular Cardiologist has such an "attitude".  His way is the only way (at least, HE thinks so).  Won't be recommending him too soon.  LOL

Hi everybody!!!

 Thanks and good luck to everyone. Claudia

Hi Claudia,

Welcome to the board. My name is Vonda and I live in Dover.  The cardiologist I saw was Dr. Abbresica. He's located in the Eden Hill Medical Center, and the pulmonogist was Dr. Ali  located on S. Bradford St.  I got clearances from both with no problem.  Good Luck

Hi
There are some ladies and gentlemen from downstate that check out the DE boards.  Why don't you post this as a new topic. Maybe it'll catch their eyes!

Good luck
