New to Oregon!

Hey there.  I had surgery seven years ago in Sept. in Anchorage Alaska with Dr. Todd at Alaska Bariatric Center.  I'm doing quite well.  I'm looking for a Primary Care Manager here in Coos Bay/North Bend area and really don't need to see a surgeon but I would like to find a PCM who has experience with Gastric Bypass pateints.  I have Tricare (yep, husband is in the Coast Guard).

Can someone point me in the right direction.

Thank you!

Try Bay Bariatrics at the North Bend Medical Center...They have all sorts of drs there.  Welcome to Oregon.

That is where Tricare referred me.  I'm having a heck of a time pinning down an actual doctor.  No one wants to see Tricare people.  I think I'm going back to the drawing board (ie. going to see our local Tricare rep who thankfully is right down the street from where I live).

I just want my labs drawn really.  I have an online support group who can help me interpret them and direct me to what supplements to add.

I agrfee wAuntie M.  I don't live in Coos Bay but I do work with the doctors at North Bend Medical Center.  There is a bariatric unit at the hospital there now - so I imagine the PCP's are all becoming quite familiar with bariatric patients.  If you stick with the clinic right there sharing the property with the hospital, I'm sure you'll get internists/family practice who will be familiar with whatever WLS issues/questions as they arise.
