Dr. Lorence gives a short written exam/evaluation prior to your appointment. It actually has questions specific to your diet, exercise, and self-assessment of your appearance. I felt very relaxed in her office. She specializes in eating disorders of various types. I had a previous psyche that I was having problems with, so I was going to her for a fresh start and dropping the other psych. She immediately knew what problems I was having with the first person when we spoke, which was refreshing! During the visit, she makes sure that you understand what you are getting yourself into. She will ask questions to evaluate how much you really know about the procedure and it's complications, what you have tried in the past to lose weight and if you understand why these things did not work, and why you really want this operation. She may require one or possibly two visits from you, and she will let you know. Because she is very pro-support group, she will also push a little that you join her group or at least someone else's, but that is NOT a requirement and you won't be given a bad report if you do not. She just wants to make sure that you have a clear understanding of why you are at this crossroads, what this procedure will do to your body, and that you understand that this is only a tool to be used in conjunction with behavioral modification to achieve your goal. Personally, I don't think you will find a more understanding and supportive psyche around Charlotte.

Lisa was Wonderful she actually respected the fact I am an RN and I know the reason why I am obese. I don't think any of us could say No to any of the question's they ask . For example do you ever eat when you're bored? of course I do I wouldn't be sitting in this chair with you right now If I couldn't answer yes to any of your questions at sometime in my life. She was VERY caring. I highly recommend her to any one needing a professional caring person to talk to

Lisa was very easy to talk with and very understanding about bariatric surgery. I was a pleasure to talk with her and she always made me feel comfortable and that I would be able to reach my goals. She never made me self self consious. I would highly recommend her.

I was so nervous and with her calm, kind, gentle manner I was immediately at ease. She made me realize some things about myself, and some things I can start doing now to prepare myself for the surgery. She really seemed to understand and care.

Dr Lorence also has a support group, along with a bariatric MD and dietitian. It's been a great help with research and decision making. We meet monthly at Dr Lorence's conference room.
