different recommendations

I have to ask why there seems to be so much variance in the different doctors and bariatric programs. From reading the questions on here, it concerns me that people are having this life changing surgery done with what appears to be little or no follow up or support, from some programs. When I see someone ask what they are supposed to eat after surgery, it shocks me. I saw the dietician with my program several times before surgery and see her everytime I see the surgeon for follow up (am now 6 wks post op)and have a written program to follow for the rest of my life. I see the program's physical therapist next week ( saw the exercise specialist when first starting the process) It just seems there are so many different recommendations or expectations depending on who you go to. That to me is scary.
