Question:
Does anyone know of a fat friendly Gynecologist in Decatur or Atlanta Georgia?

Have everything approved even the insurance company has approved me. Now my doctor wants me to be examined by a Gynecologist. Before i can get the surgery scheduled.    — Cheryl C. (posted on April 21, 2004)

I'm sorry I am not familiar with the Atlanta area but I can certainly empathize with wanting to find a fat friendly GYN. That has to be the most humiliating thing to go to the GYN while obese. The gown doesn't fit, etc. Then if you have a doctor who is chastizing you for your weight, it just makes it so much worse. I live in the Madison, WI area and I have found the most wonderful GYN. She has always been helpful and not criticized my weight and was so supportive when I got the WLS done. Good luck in your search and with your surgery :)

Try Dr. Arluck at Crawford Long she is wonderful. She has several wls patients including me. She was the only ob/gyn that didn't make me feel ashamed for being obese during my examinations.
