PCP help??
Hi! I haven't been here in a while, and I am beginning to think about RNY again. Does anyone have a referral for a good PCP in the Ypsi/Ann Arbor area? I don't really have one, and I know my insurance will require the 6 month dr supervised diet. So before I even bother looking for a surgeon (again), I would like to find a PCP that is familiar with and has referred others for RNY. Thanks!!
I went to the East Ann Arbor Family Practice clinic at Domino's Farms. My doc just moved, but I have seen others there for follow up care and they are pretty WLS friendly. They are in the same building as the U of M bariatric program, but I don't think you have to use that program if you don't want to.
The general number is: 734-647-5640.
Hi-
I use Roger Chen, with IHA Family Practice. I just got referral from him for WLS last week, and have been seeing him for the past 10+ years. I really, really like him - treats me with respect, gives me realistic advice - on everything - not just WL. I asked him about WLS and he was very supportive. Said he'd do whatever he could to help me through the process. I can always get in (same day, usually) when i need to see him for something. All in all, I highly recommend him. On Hogback, between Washtenaw and Clark. Good luck!
