way to check your Dr.'s record?

[silkhair1 0]

Is there a way to check your Dr.'s record? A free way to make sure there are no bad reports on him. I think I made the right choice, but I want to know for sure. Does that make sense? Thank You, Sue

Every state has a medical board that you can look into - On the web you can find very general info. You may get more complete info by sending them a request. For your state try here

You could always go to www.obesityhelp.com and check out what others have said about their experiences with the surgeon you're considering.

If you haven't registered yet, make sure you do, then go to Local Resources, click on your state and check out the comments from other people.

I was going to suggest checking obesityhelp.com, too. That's where I looked up the surgeon I chose. It gives the info on the surgeon as well as reviews by his patients, which I found extremely helpful.

www.inamed.com may be a place to start too.

The IL one seems hard to use. I went to my state site plugged in my doctors name and up his info came. You can call his office and get his license number and try running that through the IL state on. There are also bunches of sites that will give you a whole profile...some of them start around $8.

Good luck,

Like Jenna (princess n thep) said, Inamed.com is probably the best place to start.
