I got my referal via telephone earlier today and was told the dr I will be seeing is Timothy Aldridge? (not sure if I spelled that right) But he's not listed on here nor have I heard anything on him. If someone could let me know information they have or where I can find info please e-mail or respond to the post! I'd really appreciate it. Thank you!

Turns out it was Eldridge and he only did the lap band. So I had to switch surgeons to Ronnie Keith. I just sent in my info package right before Christmas. So i'm hoping to hear something back sometime this week. Anyone else use Ronnie Keith?
I had my RNY,surgery with Dr Keith Nov 29, 2004, a littel over13 months ago and I lost 178bls.I was 363bls now am 185 and feel great. Not only is he a excellent surgeon, his bariatric educational program and suport groups are one of the best in the nation. His Dietition is Kasey Koster RD/LD and she is great. 405 3607100

I finally see what every one was talkign about with waiting! lol. But i'm just greatful I even get the opportunity. I've had 2 children naturally so i'm not really 'embarassed' by my size or what I look like without a hospital gown lol (even tho it is far from flattering), so I don't worry about that, but I am a sensitive person. How is Dr. Keith's bedside manner? Is he polite? I have only heard good things about him. Which is why I chose him. My insurance company (tricare) gave me a list of every bariatric surgeon who does the lap RNY in my area (around tinker afb) and let me choose. I immediately asked for Dr. Keith based on the opinions of OH's members.
