Looking for DR for follow up care

I live in the Biloxi area and am in need of a DR to see me for follow up visits. I had WLS 5/9/03, and thus far have not had any health concerns, but need to get levels checked. If anyone has any information, please let me know. Thanks, Beth

Have you tried Dr. Ava in Ocean Springs or there is a doctor at Gulf Coast Medical center also. GOOD LUCK

Susan, Thanks for the Dr's name. I will try to call soon for a check-up. Matter of fact, I live very close to D'Iberville. Beth

I really enjoyed seeing you on the WLS grad board, and remembered you were from Alabama - welcome to the MS board.....Hope school is going good for you! We will probably all get together at some point on the coast, maybe I'll see ya in person then. DeAnna

Hey girl, what are you doing in Mississippi? Did ya move here? recently? Are you a Mississippi gal now? DeAnna

DeAnna, We relocated to the Biloxi area in mid-September. I'm at USM trying to finish up my degree in Social Work. So, yes, I am a Mississipi gal now(well, for now anyways). OK it's way past my bedtime...I'll pop in again when time permits. Have a great week! Beth

Are you attending a support group in the area? If not, I would like to invite you to join ours. We have a meeting once a month, mostly Keesler post op patients, but I do have some members that are not Keesler patients, so everyone is welcome. Our meeting for this month is Monday night, Jan 29, at 7 p.m. and is located at the Pepsi Plant Recreation Center, at 13300 Dedeaux Rd, Gulfport, MS . If you need better directions, feel free to call me at 435-2910. This months speaker is going to be the manager from Smoothie King, she will be bringing different samples of protein drinks and snacks for us to try. Feel free to join us. Rhonda

I had my surgery done by Dr. Avara in Ocean Springs. He and his staff are excellent. 866.445.5508
