Has anyone had thier PCP refuse to give them a referal for surgeon?

I went to see my PCP and explained the whole WLS thing to him and why I would like to have the surgery. That was a quick no! Said it was too risky, instead he upped my Thyroid meds and changed my deppression med. to see if this would help me loose weight. Anyone have any sugestions as to where to go from here??? I don't want to be fat anymore!!!
