Need a WLS friendly PCP in Tampa, Florida area

Hi.  I am brand new to the forum.  Right now I am very frustrated because my family doctor for the last 7 years patently refuses to even listen to my wanting to have weight loss surgery.  I am at least 140 overweight, and have been at least 125 (more or less) ever since I started seeing him.  When I asked him to look at the literature, he told me I'd best forget about it and then criticized me for being weak-willed and lazy.

So - rather than wallow in self pity, I want to move on, but I need a weight loss surgery friendly doctor for my primary care physician.  Does anyone know of anyone in the Tampa, FL area?  Thank you!

Hi there, I am looking for the same thing. Did you ever have any luck?
