Dr. Raymond Drew and your first visit... questions
Hi all,
I have my apt tomorrow with Dr Drew, I was just wondering from those of you that had him, what was he like, did he want you to do more than you had already done, was he concerned about you and the RNY? I am trying to be prepared for everything... we can submit to insurance after my visit with him, I am so anxious, I just want him to see that I am so prepared and ready to go ... I don't want any setback... thanks for any advice you can share!!

Nicole-
I had Dr. Drew and he is FABULOUS!!!
I think each case can be fairly individual. It depends on what you've already done and where you are at.
I did not have to lose a certain amount of weight before hand. He does require a two week liquid diet pre op, and he is a little more lenient with your post op food options.
Good Luck Tomorrow!! Everyone at the clinic is wonderful.

Im a day late on this but you should ask my Mom... she had him and she adores him! Very intelligent no nonsense guy.
If you were going to coffee tomorrow you could talk to her. I have heard nothing but stellar things about him!
He does a good job!
Hugs to you neighbor!
