Help locals!  I need a WLS friendly PCP in the Charlotte/Matthews area.  Who do you see?

I tried someone at Matthews Family Physicians but she seemed worried about me traveling to get my surgery and didn't know a darned thing about the DS.  I would prefer someone who is already educated on the the DS or who is willing to really learn about it.  I also want someone who is going to support *my* decisions, not try to tell me what's best for me.  KWIM?

Thanks for your help! :)

My PCP is great and very supportive but not an expert in WLS.  That is going to be a tough one.  Wishing you the best!

Are you in the Clt area?  If so, I would love to have your doc's info.  "Supportive" is at least a step in the right direction. ;)

Hello,
I love my PCP. Her name is Anne Barnard with Mecklenburg Medical Group. I have had two weight loss surgeries while being under her care. She is very supportive and is knowledgeable about the DS.
Good luck on your search,
Cheryl
