Hi there! I know I have replied to you in the threads but I am just seeing this on the NH board.
My husband and I have a wonderful surgeon/program at CMC in Manchester orders complete labs. We had surgery in October 2012 and have had FULL sets at 3 months, 6 months and just now at one year. I am so sorry you are having trouble with this. As I mentioned in one of my replies our primary also makes sure (asks us) at our physicals, if there is anything else we want/need ordered. We go to Amoskeag Primary Care in Manchester. They are affiliated with CMC so they are pretty familiar with WLS patients. We see Vonda Haas-Rueda. She is a PA. We have been with her over 10 years and are very comfortable with our care there.
Please feel free to contact me for any further info you might need/be interested in. Good luck!!

Hi there! I am just seeing this message now.. This board is very slow and I hardly check it anymore. I highly recommend the program at CMC in Manchester. My husband and I both had RNY there in October 2012 by Dr Campbell. I would be glad to give you more info if you are interested. I have been working as a mentor to new patients to our program for quite a while now. Please feel free to let me know if you are interested in talking to me and I will provide some contact info.

Topic: RE: Psychiatrist for bariatric evaluation in NH?

At Portsmouth Regional Hospital, the Psych was in the Bariatric Program so all patients that went through Portsmouth went to the same Pysch.

Surprised Dartmouth doesn`t have one on board for the Bariatric Program.

Topic: Need help starting the process...

I just spoke to my primary care doc. about surgery. He said I am a candidate. How do I start the process? I live in Nashua so where do you recommend I go? Is there a place in Nashua? I read about a hospital in Manchester which is not out of the question but since I work in Mass. I would liie arranging all of the pre- post appointments to be the least disruptive to my work schedule. How do I get started and where do I go? I do not want the lap band.
