Question:
I'm currently researching PCP's in my area that are familiar with WLS

I thought perhaps I would ask here as well. Does anyone know of a PCP in the Palmdale/Lancaster Ca area,that has alot of knowledge concerning the needs of WLS patients? I'm concerned about all of my aftercare, and want to be sure I'm with a DR whom knowns exactly what type of tests, complications, etc to be aware of. I'm finding that not as many PCP's are as familiar with the surgery (and everything that goes along with it), as I would have thought. I need a PCP that I can communicate with, and feel confident that they know a little something in the event my surgeon is unavailable. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks so much!    — Goodgirl (posted on March 3, 2003)
