Hi Diana, Thought I'd give you this link in case you haven't stumbled upon it yet: http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/professionals/showd ocs-all.php?State=ID Hope it helps with your research, ~Michelle OH Member Services

I was just informed that Dr. Podany will no longer be in practice in Idaho Falls as a surgeon. All his patients have been turned over to Brian O'Byrne.

I'm from Ogden so I spend a lot of time down there. Family there all over. I am seeing Dr Caltin for my  knees and hips. He is one of the best orthopedic surgeons.  I know of Dr Oakley. His reputation is very good. I am going to go to his support group on the 18th. We also have several others that are not listed on the site. My dr wants me to see someone else. I can't remember his name. It is different. They will also refer me to Dr Oakley if I want. I know there is one here who is in it only for the medicade. I have 2 friends who went to him and will not reccomend him. The problem is, they have both moved and I can't find their new phone numbers and I don't know the drs name.  All the surgeons that do bariatrics are not OH. Maybe you can come up here for a surgery and I will go down there for another. The world gets to be a small place. If you come up here, I will be here for you. Diana
