Question:
I need to know if anyone out there works at Vanderbilt Hospital in Nash, TN.

My closest friend wants to have surgery, but he says his insurance at Vanderbilt is horrible. He has lots of co-morbidities, but doesn't want to go through the process again (he tried when he was living in AZ but his hospital changed insurances before he could get approved). Anyway, he is a nurse and a truly wonderful person. If anyone of you wonderful people who visit and support this site can contact me or pass on some info I would be eternally grateful. P.S. Thanks for all the wonderful answers to my last question. I wanted to write everyone personally and thank them but got bogged down with work. Thanks again.    — Heather L. (posted on March 27, 2000)

That's pretty horrible, considering Vanderbilt HAS a WLS program! I'd have him contact Dr. Wright and ask his advice. He answers his email. The link is: http://www.mc.vanderbilt.edu/surgery/stomach/index.htm Good luck to your friend and to you!
