See if you can find a Bariatric Surgeon that will help you with follow up. Most are hesitate to do so if they didn't do the surgery but it's worth a try. Use our Find a Bariatric Surgeon tool in the upper right hand corner.
If you go with a PCP, make sure they are experienced with WLS. Also try calling local hospitals and check with their WLS departments for suggestions also.
