missbutter 1 Posted September 8, 2014 I'm 8 weeks out and would love to have someone to connect with that understands this process. The people in the support groups at the hospital are much older then me and I'm having a hard time relating to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weizzman 0 Posted April 21, 2017 Haven't chosen my dr yet. It will be done at Theda Clark in Neenah, WI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XmeghannstarX 43 Posted April 24, 2017 I am going with Dr. Chua. He is the medical director of Bariatric surgery for Aurora in Milwaukee, which is why I chose him. I have completed all my paper work and aurora pre work- just waiting on my insurance to review the paper work and decide if they will approve me or not. Should know in the next few weeks.

It will be a rough road with the life changes, but I have endured way worse! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
