 The best of luck to you!  My six month diet ended the other day, so it's fixing to be sent off to the insurance.  Tenncare...ugghhh  BUT, I do have MORE comorbities than they require, which isn't necessarily a good thing...anyway, here's hoping....

Twyla, Dr. Houston is who Dr. Woodman told me to see. If I'm able to have my surgery before the end of the year I hope to use him. My "stuff" is up in the air right now. I will know more (I hope) Tuesday when I go see my PCP.

 I'm going to Centennial myself, and wanting Dr. Houston for the DS.  I've been to the seminar, really liked what I heard and seen.  I've talked to quite a few about Dr. Houston, and they always say he's great.  I'm in Chattanooga, so I have to travel too.

Thanks, I looked at the website, I also went to a seminar last night for Dr. Woodman because my PCP wasn't aware that my insurance wouldn't cover him. Anyway I'm trying to get my surgery before the end of the year if I can then I will be going there I'm hoping to see Dr. Hugh Houston. If I have to wait 6 months I will wait for Dr. Woodman, since he comes to Jackson I won't have to drive as far for fills and check-ups.

 I live a few miles north of Jackson, TN - and I opted for Dr. Douglas Olsen with Centennial  Bariatrics in Nashville.  I can't begin to tell you how pleased I am with my decision.  He's a top notch surgeon and is very thorough in discussing your options with you in advance.

I had a RNY a little over a month ago and have been encouraged by the results.  They do surgery at Centennial Women's Hospital (right across the street from their office).  I don't know if traveling to Nashville would be prohibitive for you...if not, I encourage you to check our their website at http://www.cmcwls.com/default .  

Best of luck to you!

 I would check with your insurance company on who they do take.  Then get back with your PCP on selecting a doctor.
