Kindle 8,667 Posted January 24, 2014 I had my annual check up today and filled my OB/Gyn in on my surgery details. (Still haven't even told my PCP) She was so excited and thought what I did was great, and offered to arrange for any followup bloodwork I needed. She wanted the name of my surgeon in Mexico because she has several other patients who's insurance doesn't cover WLS. I forwarded all my records from OCC so she'd have all the info for future reference. 3 honeyg317, vdub_tx and lauri407 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sunshine22 55 Posted January 24, 2014 Prior to my surgery, I had my regular check up with my GYN. I let him know about the surgery. He was, by far the most supportive of all the doctors I had told. I will always appreciate his support. Especially because some doctors (including my general practitioner) were not supportive at all. So glad you had a positive reaction! It makes such a difference 1 Kindle reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BethinPA 305 Posted January 25, 2014 My gyn surprised me by asking if she can refer other patients who may have questions about WLS to me because she sees me as a success story related to that. I was very flattered! 1 Sunshine22 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
