I am in search of a Dr anywhere within a 6 hour radious of Amarillo Tx that takes Aetna. I have waited 8 months for Dr Crum here in Amarillo. I AM DONE WAITING!! It took me 3 and a half months to get an appt, the day of the appt, it was canceled due to emergency. I called, emailed and faxd everyday for a month to get another appt. Never got an answer. A friend of mine who had recently had gastric bypass, begged me to go to the Meeting they were having about the concerns of everyone that had been left in the dirt. I go, and Dr Crum asked me later on that evening if I really wanted to begin the process. He told me to show up the Thursday after christmas and he would see me. I knew by this time that he was trying to go on his own and having difficulty with TT gettig released. He told me that by Feb he would be up and running and we could go from there. It is now MAY and he still cannot practice. :tt1: I need a Dr in this area that takes Aetna insurance. Can anyone PLEASE help me? I am at my wits end.

Thank you for your response, I will be there in June and hope to meet you. Like I said before, I am done waiting around that maybe, Dr Crum will be able to practice again here. I will look the Drs up and go from there. Again thanks for the response I just didnt know where to go and now I have some options.

I was just wondering, does this apply to the Aetna EPO as well?? or it it just the PPO with all the problems?

I am new here and just barely was able to be on the boards a few minutes ago. I have struggled with my weight since I was a child. It was only a few years ago I found out part of my problem was an underactive thyroid. I have since then gotten it under control. I still am having difficulties loosing and this is my last resort. I did think about the gastric bypass but it scared me also. Plus I can't afford to be off 2weeks being a single person. After last night and going to my first meeting I am on the bubble as which way I should go now. I too am having major issues in what I should do
