Dr. Gormichek

Anyone hear of Dr. Gormichek? One of our members passed this name on to me and was wondering if anyone knew of this dr. Would like some info on him if possible. Got to check out if he is Pacificare or not also. Seems like dr.s doing this surgery in OKC area are getting limited. THanks...........judy

Hi Judy! I have not personally met Dr. Gormichec, but he (along with Drs. Floyd and Pearce) presented at the seminar I attended at the beginning of June. They were all very well-informed and answered everyone's questions. I wish you the best of luck in your search for a surgeon! Heather

Dr. Gornicheck assisted on my revision, etc last year with Dr. Pearce. Also, I know that Dr. Floyd is on Pacificare as someone I know who has Pacificare is using him(hopefully). Becky Open RNY 10/08/02 Dr. Pearce 293-143

I have pacificare, and let me tell you. . it has been a nightmare! I don't think I EVER would have found Dr. Floyd's name unless I had spoken with the nurse supervisor (Betty Mason) of Edmond's bariatric unit. Physicians taking Pacificare for bariatric surgery are limited. I do believe, however, there is a Dr. Hannon who takes or will be taking Pacificare very soon. However, he does not perform the Roux En Y surgery. He only performs the vertical band. I believe his name is Russell Hanan, and his phone number is 235-3245. Other than Dr. Hanan, I found only one other office doing the procedure for Pacificare, but they were not accepting any new patients until next year.
