Sorry no help there. I am in MIlwuakee. But Dr Thomas Chua is the best in Wisconsin. He works out of Aurora Sinai hospital. I had my surgery on July 28, 2009 and it went great. He is excellent surgeon.

Hello and Welcome!  I'm up in the Green Bay area so I'm of no help.  Have you checked with your PCP (primary care provider) to see if they can refer you to someone.  That's what I had to do 1st anyway, see my PCP 1st.  She then referred me to the group who does it here in GB.

Good Luck!

Topic: Finding the right Surgeon - NEWBIE
I have found so much information on here - it's overwhelming!!

I am looking for a surgeon in the Kenosha area...Anyone know of one?

It's easier for me to get to Kenosha than to  any of the surgeon's here in IL.

Thanks for any help!!

The subject was not healthy cooking. It was how to dress after wls.

Maurie it was great finally to meet you in person. It was only my 2nd time there myself. They make you feel so welcome there too :)
