Seeking PCP referral in NE Ohio **must be PRO WLS!

Hi everyone. I am in need of a referral for an MD in the area who's pro-WLS. I need to have a doctor supervised diet for insurance purposes and currently have not family doctor. I've not been to a doctor in 7 years, and back then the doctor I went to was in Arizona so...... if you have someone to recommend let me know.  Thanks!!  Jennifer [email protected]

Jenn,  I'm a medical professional a little south of you. I can give you some names in Hartville, but that's about as close to your neck of the woods that I know.  My advice is to maybe talk to one of the surgeons office's and ask them who they get a lot of pts from and who has been willing to work with them on some of the more difficult cases.  If you want, I can email you some names. Good luck on your journey and welcome! Joan

My doc is very supportive.  Dr. Nitin Govoni

I see Dr Strasburg at Cleveland Clinic Solon. I just love her. She was extremely supportive of the surgery. I also love that she specializes in women's health so I also she her for my gyn issues. To me this is a plus because I have PCOS which effects all aspects of your health. So I like having one DR to take care of me. If you would like any more info or have any questions let me know! Hugs,

Hi, My Doctor is Dr Amy Friedman in Streetsboro.  She was very supportive and helpful with my surgery.  I recommend her to everyone. Good Luck,   Debbie
