Topic: RE: Hey All
I didn't have WLS but I had a 20 lb panni removal from a WLS surgeon.

Her name is Janey Pratt and she works out of Mass General Hospital in Boston. She does several types of WLS, so you can try asking if she does lapriscope. Not only is she a WLS surgeon, she is an instructor of WLS.

If you are interested, here is here office phone #......
1-617-724-1088.

Do you see the glass as half empty or half full? I say, what difference does it make--I paid for a full glass,so either way I am getting jipped!!!

Topic: Hey All
I am 37 years young.  I have been in and out of Weight Loss surgery programs for the past few years.  I am in a situation where I was approved for it and then lost my job.  Then would restart a job get laid off and be back to square one.  Anyhoo I am not on unemployment again with Network Health thru Unemployment and am looking for a doctor that does Weight Loss surgery lapriscopically (Did I spell that right?)  I was going to go thru Dr Sheldon Randall out of Lawrence Memorial but am not sureif he does it that way....Any suggestions would great appreciated.

BTW I live in the Malden area

I didn't have WLS but I did have a 20 lb panni removal from a WLS surgeon. Her name is Janey Pratt and she works out of Mass General Hospital. She is not only a WLS but she is an instructor of WLS. All doctors that see my scar (which is hardly visable) compliment her work.

 I think Dr Randall is out of Newton-Wellesley now, so it might be worth checking out? Good luck!

 Thanks Valerie.  I have an appointment with them on June 28th.  I have consults with three other plastic surgeons also.  I'd be grateful if anyone who has used them is willing to share their experience.  I'll be posting my experiences on the plastic surgery forum.
Thanks again for answering me!

Topic: RE: Lahey Burlington
My husband has had a major surgery there and they were awesome.  Our primary care is a Lahey doctor which is how I chose Lahey.  I know a few people that have had the WLS at Winchester, all very positive experiences. I guess I will just have to wait and see..so far things have been going well.

Thanks for replying.

I know Mass General has a residency program that is discounted quite a bit....several people from MA have used them with good results.

I don't have any experience with their WLS dept, but overall there are better hospitals in the area. I had my surgery at Winchester and couldn't have had a better experience. My husband's doctor is at Lahey, but he won't go to the hospital there.
