Relocating to Tulsa...recommendations for follow up dr?

Hello everyone! I'm originally a Tulsa girl but have been living in Las Vegas for a while now. I'm possibly (probably) relocating back home soon and wanted to get a recommendation for a follow up surgeon or a WLS friendly PCP. I appreciate any suggestions! 

Hi Lisa,

I will tell you who I use.

I had my surgery with Dr. Gorospe and have had a very positive experience so far.  He has been doing gastric bypass since 1973 in Tulsa, so he has done a few.  As far as a PCP, that one was a little harder, but I found Dr. Chandan Lad at the Warren clinic.  I am convinced he is the best.  He was the first Dr. I did not have to tell I could not take nasids and seems to be completely conscious of my surgical condition when suggesting treatments.  Dr. Lad also calls you himself with all of your test results just in case you have questions.  The best as far as I am concerned.  I tried several Dr. s in the area before settling on him.

Good luck on your move! 

I am not in Tulsa, but I've heard great things about Dr. Gorospe, as well, from several people I know here on this board.  I'll say that you'd probably want to have follow-up surgeon, not a PCP, this early on in the game, but again, that's just my 2 cents.  I still see my surgeon at least every 6 mos and I'm almost 6 years out now.   Hope the recommendation helps!  Take care!!
