My boyfriend and I have both had WLS. He is 14 months out and I'm 4 months out. We are relocating to Youngstown from the NJ/PA area and need to find new doctors. Does anyone know the name of a PCP in the area that has experience working with WLS patients. Also any surgeons in the area that we might be able to contact if needed. Thanks in advance.

Hi Jennifer, Where in the Youngstown area are you relocating to? I relocated here last year from western PA. I live in Boardman (just outside of Youngstown. I have a very good PCP in Campbell which is approximately 7 miles from Boardman. My PCP helped me start the process of the WLS. I also know a local surgeon who works out of one of the local hospitals. I have personally had experience with the surgeon on two occasions and have been pleased with the results. I also have just recently started going to a local support group which is open to anyone thinking about WLS, pre-op, or post-op. We meet at the Austintown Denny's on the first Tuesday of every month from 6:00 - 8:00pm. We would be happy to have you and your boyfriend join us. I will gladly answer any of your questions that I can. Just drop me an e-mail. I will answer it as soon as I get it, (probably after my daughter goes to bed tomorrow evening). Welcome to Youngstown, Becky D.

Hi Jennifer, If you want, e-mail me and I can let you know about my PCP and surgeon. I went though St. Elizabeth, too. They were great. My PCP is also in Campbell. He was very very thorough and made sure I knew the pros and cons before I ever went to the surgeon's consultation. Jackie
