Looking for Tulsa Surgeon

Hello everyone, I am writing this for my friend that lives outside of Tulsa that is really interested in Bariatric Surgery. She had weight loss surgery about 16 years ago so this will be a redo. She needs names of several Surgeons. Thanks, Nancy

Try Surgical Associates - Dr. Kevin Fisher or Steven Katsis. I know Dr. Fisher has done surgery on someone over 60 and maybe older. The website is: www.surgassoc.com This tells when the informational meetings are, which you will need to attend first. After you do the information meeting, you need to gather your medical records and fill out their paperwork and send it to them. Someone will then call you for a consult with the doctor. You will have to have a Psychiatric Evaluation; Pulmonary Evaluation and a Heart workup BEFORE you get a surgery date. You will also have to attend at least one Support Group meeting. If you need additional, info, let me know. Cyndi Jackson Dr. Fisher / Lap / St. Francis 08/16/2004

Actually, only those two and Dr. Gorospe are doing them in Tulsa, now. My doctor, Johnson at Hillcrest, and his partners have stopped taking new patients and will continue with those in process only until January. It's getting rather difficult here with all the malpractice problems... Liz
