3 yrs Post Op - New to Boston - Need a new PCP
Liz, You are very fortunate to find a city where you will have choices. I would suggest calling the WL surgery centers and ask them for their referral for a PCP. Then also I would find out what you would need to do to have that Surgeon follow you up for your surgery. I would want to think you would make contact with a surgeon just in case. It might be a letter from your current surgeon and medical records. Also --there are several support groups in the area that you could join should you feel you need to do so.
I had lap band surgery at Brigham, but New England Medical Center, Beth Israel Hospital, Boston Medical Center, Mass General are the large WLS centers that come to mind.
I think you would be happy with a PCP (and a Surgeon ) at all of these centers. If I left a center out--only by oversight-not by poor recommendation.
Welcome to Boston, Liz!
