Also every time you see wls do you think of the radio station? Thanks in advance! Hi Bettbo: My PCP is Dr. Nancy Zamora. She is nearly downtown, on Halsted between Division and North. Close to the Kennedy, and parking is only $2. 1460 N. Halstead, Suite 202 Chicago IL Phone: 77387144093 She is a doll. Pretty easy to get into, and VERY WLS friendly. She referred me to my surgeon and has had several patients who have had WLS so was really supportive, and helpful in getting the paperwork I needed for the insurance. I think she was more excited about my surgery than I was! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nicolenik17 126 Posted July 17, 2013 This is my first week back to work since surgery 6/3. Luckily my first two days I worked from home. Today is my first day in the office....not a bad day. My mom bought me a bday cake yesterday ( actual bday is 7/18 )she said she wanted to catch me in a good mood before returning to the office. Lol I thanked her for the cake and then told her to take it to her house. She gave me a funny look. I was like " um thank you, but georgette can only have about a fork full of all of that yumminess." It's quick how people forget that our eating habits have changed. 1 TV-Duhhh!!! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
