New Mexico Sleevers Here!

[tuturunner 29]

I'm in the early stages of meeting with my surgeon. I'm choosing to go with a Dallas doctor too. Was a bit nervous about it all until I met him! Wasn't impressed with the seminars I went to in ABQ. What do you do for local support?

Hi everyone!

I'm in Albuquerque, and in the beginning stages of the process. I went to a Las Palmas orientation in July, and am waiting for a callback from my Presbyterian insurance case manager to start the hoop-jumping. My boyfriend's sister had gastric bypass there in Nov 2010 and has been thrilled with her care, and El Paso is the only reasonable distance for me to manage right now.

Glad to see some local people!

Hey guys! I don't know how i missed these recent posts!!

Adeptdreamer: Going to Dallas was great! I went there with my mom and boys. Hubby had to stay and work. We stayed in a hotel across from the medical center which made it nice. It was a longer drive to Dr. Kim's office, but it wasn't bad. Just make sure you have a GPS!!!!! DAllas is hairy!!! Especially with all the construction. Let me know if you have ANY questions...

tuturunner: I have a very good family doc that is more than happy to keep tabs on me, run bloodwork, etc. It's worked out well.

NDN_RN: That's cool!

JulesNM: I hope all goes well!

We need to have a little Abq/RR support group!!
