VERY frustrated at my doctor!!!

Yeah, try to switch doctors. Like someone once said, remember that half of all doctors finished in the bottom half of their class!!

Sam...this reminds me of an old joke that nurses tell each other. Know what they call the doc who finished dead last in every class in medical school? Doctor.

Enough said. I am married to a physician and work with them so I know they can be brilliant and compassionate but every profession has it's duds and medicine is no exception. (or nursing!! )

I agree - find another pcp.

I think I would have to ask for the studies that doctor was basing her opinion on.

FatBetty.... I have BCBS-Fed and I'm in California. Where exactly do you live? I am going to a WLS center in Northridge who are a Center of Excellence and ONLY work with weight loss surgery patients! They are super friendly, very professional, and do all the work for you! I will be completing my 3 month supervised diet program next Monday and then they will submit paperwork to my insurance THAT day!!! This place is a one stop shop!! Nutritionist is there on site too!!

I originally went to another doctor in Burbank who was very awful (his staff) and they never returned phone calls or anything! They never even called me to tell me I needed a 3 month diet!! That's when I got so fed up and called my insurance company and they actually recommended the doctor I'm seeing now.

Please dont give up!! Make sure you switch doctors and get that 3 month process started immediately!!
