Finding a good doctor in Houston
Hi Y'all,
I just moved back to Texas from a brief stay in South Carolina (9 months). I lived in north Fort Worth for 11 years and had my RNY surgery with Dr. Provost (great doctor). Now, I'm in Houston. I had my surgery about 20 months ago. I lost 100 pounds. I'm looking for a couple of things here and am not sure if one doctor can fit the bill. I just saw an internal medicine doctor and was completely dissatisfied. He basically told my the RNY was "dangerous" and that I should have had lap-band surgery. He seemed amazed when I told him my RNY was done laproscopically . Needless to say, I am running fast away from this guy. So - I'm looking for a doctor who can follow up on my care for the RNY and also one who can help me with my pre-menopausal/menopausal symptoms. I've had night sweats for years but it seems to be getting worse (and happening during the day). I am getting up several times in the middle of the night... Not good. I'm also looking for someone who can help me with my depression. I have Aetna insurance. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kirsten
