Hello all, I thought I would post my question differently.   Does anyone know any primary care doctors in Kansas City North that will support, approve, and refer a patient for bariatric surgery? I am looking for a new PCP.  I had one post of a physician in Parkville, but she is not on my Aetna Open Access physician listing. I have just requested a copy of my medical chart from my current PCP to be copied.  I am gathering other reports for inclusion, so I can have everything ready to go when I finally get to go for my surgery consult.   Thank you all for your support and quick answers!

As for the one in Parkville see if Dr Robert Stokes is on your plan. They will submit to insurance under his name. Yous should call them and ask if they accept your insurance. I have Aetna POS II and they accept it.

You are such a kind man and a wealth of information!   With not seeing a new physician a bunch of times or having any history with a doctor, it's going to be hard for me to go in and say, I am in search of a new PCP, but here's what I desperately want to do and will you help me achieve it?! Thank you again.  I'm heading to my aetna log-in now!   Donna AKA Hot-Flash

I Had never met Dr Beasly before wanting this surgery. I used to see Dr Stokes and Parkville Primary had been my PCP for years but yet I did not always go there. I went 2 years without ever seeing a doctor. but I called them up when I started researching and they told me they had a newer doctor there that WLS is her specialty in a sense. I have been going to her every 2 weeks and now I found out i really don't have to but I still choose to. Best of luck with everything and if you have more questions feel free to ask.
