I am new to the forums and was just wondering if anyone out there is from the Toledo area? I am hoping to have surgery in the next month, just waiting for approval. Would love to hear someone else experiences locally!!

Oh yes Let me tell you I so wanted to see Doc White my cousin had her surgery done by him Wonderful guy I hear, But because of my husbands Stupid insurance which by the way we pay and arm and leg for each week it comes out of his check...I can only go to certain hospitals And I was debating on the Lap or the RNY and Doc white is only RNY surgeon who isn't retired in toledo believe me I checked IF you possibly hear of one who takes Med Mutual (Health Ohio) HMO Please let me know...But I found Brian Lane thru Wood County hospital in Bowling Green which sucks Cause I have to go see him so far away ...But He offers Lap Band & RNY & DS Duodeual switch..And another But I forgot and his Nurse was super nice I go meet him on the 20th of this month and my insurance requires 6 month diet by my doc which I have been on since january..And seen the Shrink...And Hopefully when I go see Doc Lane he can help to get me set up w/ the rest of the stuff I am required to get which I have no Idea what that will be cause I was setting up WLS for the Lap Band But am not so sure I even wanna go that route now...Yes we should talk more...thx Nikki..

I am one of Dr. White's    I had my RNY May 17 2006 and have lost 154lbs and have 9 to go. I feel Dr. White is the best there is,and only wish I had done this years ago.

Hi Free  I'm in Toledo, attended Dr. White's support mtg's for a while, but I am a patient of Dr. Curry's in Cincy.  Dr. White's group stopped taking my insurance like a week before my approval came in, so I had to start again.  I'm 2.5 yrs out now though and loving life!  peace, Vickie

On Aug. 31, 2006 Dr White changed my life!!  I have not had one problem since that day with my lap RNY surgery.  Nine months later and I have lost 80 pounds of the 90 that I needed to loose.  Not only is Dr White a very skilled surgeon, but you will love his staff.  Kristi, Shannon and Kathy are very caring people and all of them have treated me with dignity and patience.  You will also find the monthly support group that Dr White's team offer, very helpful.  I HIGHLY recommend Dr White to anyone!

Thanks for the support! I am awaiting my approval and hopefully will have a date by the end of next week. I feel good about all the comments. Everyone seems very happy with Dr. White and his staff! He seems like he definitely knows what he is doing! Thanks again to everyone!!
