John Gualtieri Psychologist Ph.D.

Dr. Gualtieri has several years experience doing psych consults for WLS. Although not is main interest, he has great sympathy and understanding of the difficulties a MO person can have and wants to do all he can to help the individual. In my case he did not do any tests, we talked and as part of the general discussion he verified that I was capable of making a decision about surgery, had the necessary support system in place, and intended to do all the aftercare required for the DS procedure. Note: I had a previous therapy with him (completed several years ago), so I felt felt very comfortable with him and wanted someone who knew me very well to make sure I was mentally ready to handle the changes the DS will make in my life.
