Question:
Does anyone have a WLS friendly PCP in Austin, Texas?

I am trying again to get insurance approval for WLS and need to find a PCP that is WLS friendly. I have checked the library and I can't find anything. Please e-mail me at [email protected] THANK YOU!!    — Kim M. (posted on February 11, 2002)

Hi, I lived in Austin when I had surgery. I didn't need a referral from a PCP for insurance purposes. But, my PCP was very supportive in terms of ordering pre-op tests locally since I was having surgery in San Antonio. Her name is Christine Eady and she is located in north Austin (actually may be Round Rock) at Cornerstone Family medical center. I'm not sure how supportive she is of WLS in general, but I had no problems getting the tests I needed.
