This sounds wonderful! I've lost 85# and definitely need something to brighten up my face! I'm in the Triad but travel to western NC regularly. Where are you?

Hope you find some takers!

    

HW333--SW 289--GW of 160 5' 11" woman.  I only know the way I know & when you ask for input/advice, you'll get the way I've been successful through my surgeon & nutritionist. Please consult your surgeon & nutritionist for how to do it their way.  Biggest regret? Not doing this 10 years ago! Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!

Topic: RE: WLS friendly PCP

My PCP is in North Raleigh, so it might be a bit to far but he is amazing. I was obese when I started with him and he never used that as an excuse if I was having symptoms or was sick. He is very supportive post op so that I do not have to travel to Durham for labs and follow up. He does whatever I need. This is so important now since my surgeon is no longer covered by my insurance. His name is Dr Susheel Atree at North Wake Internal Medicine.

Topic: WLS friendly PCP

I am looking for a new primary care physician.  My doctor of almost 8 years left the practice I was going to, and I switched to a new doctor at the same practice.  I like her well enough, but I feel like the doctors there are way too comfortable prescribing pills for every complaint.  They also are completely dismissive of WLS as anything other than a cosmetic and "very dangerous" procedure.  

My lovely health insurance will not pay for ANY treatment related to weight loss surgery or nutrition, other than a diabetes "class" on nutrition.  Anyway, on my own I have scheduled a Gastric Sleeve surgery for Dec 9th in Mexico.  I need to find a good PCP who will be supportive of the surgery and not judgmental.  I am having the surgery mostly for the metabolic effect since I have diabetes that has gotten worse very quickly in the last year.  

Any suggestions for PCPs in the Brier Creek area of Raleigh or Cary/Morrisville?  Someone with experience with diabetes and weight issues, who listens and wants to get me well, not keep me sick so I keep coming back month after month.  

Thanks for the help.
