Thanks so much, Mary!  So nice to hear you had your consultation with Dr. Small this week.  I ended up going to Hopkins and actually had my consultation yesterday!  I am going with Dr. Steele.  She has a group meeting first and then meets with everyone individually.  One of the women who is having surgery brought her mom who had the surgery two years ago at Meritus.  She has lost 175 pounds and said she got good care there! 

Best of luck to you, too!

Hello Members,

On a daily basis we get calls from members in desperate need of surgeons that will accept Medicaid and or Medicare for Bariatric surgery.  It breaks our hearts when we have to say "we don't know of any surgeons in your state we can refer you to". 

Can you please help us? If you know of any surgeons in your state that accepts Medicaid and or Medicare, will you list their:

Name

If they accept Medicare and or Medicaid

Phone number

Facility

Address

This list will remain here for our members to access and use.

Thank you so much!!!

Hi Barb,
                 My surgeon is Dr. Long at Siani.....I was just hoping to find a support group closer to me than going into Baltimore.

 My Sleeve was done by Dr. Li 4/26/10. I could not have asked for a better surgeon. The hospital was great, and the staff was awesome. 
More than two years out and I have a new lease on life. You have picked an awesome surgeon!

I can't believe it.  I am already done with the 5th visit.  I see Dr. Li on September 5th
