OT Need a good Primary Care Doc in Orlando area

I would be willing to go anywhere... Winter Park, Mtld., Altamonte Springs, Oviedo etc.  It would be a bonus if they were familiar with wls.  I would REALLY appreciate your help.  You guys rock!

Hi, I have a wonderful primary Dr. but she is in Kissimmee. She has been great about WLS. Is that too far?

Hi Donna, What is the name of your primary in Kissimmee and where are they located? I will be moving over that way at the end of the month and need to find a doctor who is WLS educated. (I am almost 3 years post-op) Thanks, Dawn

Hi Dawn, So sorry it has taken me so long to get back with you. Dr. Tanya Medina, 801 W. Oak St Suite 104, her phone is 407-847-8300. I have been seeing her for several years and I just love her! Good luck,

Dr. Jane Zivalich (407) 658-8866) in the Conway/Orlando area was my primary when I started this journey. She is fabulous! Dr. Richard Bransdorf (407-303-4901) in Celebration is also "bariatric friendly."

HTH!

Cynthia Powell, MD in ORMC's Internal Medicine Group.  She's a sweetheart and WLS supportive.  I don't love the machine that is their office operations (it's a huge teaching group--part of FSU's Medical School) but I put up with it for her.  :)

I see Karen Echeverria in the same pratice.  I know what you mean about the waiting rooms and stuff.  Not the most beautiful office but convenient for me since I work for them.  They doctors in that group are excellent and are always on top of their game.

thanks so much for your replies.  This board is the best!

Roger Marrero in Oviedo is great - and he has quite a few WLS patients... he talked me into getting mine...
