snowkitten 371 Posted April 20, 2015 So I'm curious, how long post op did you see your surgeon for follow up? I'm seeing him this week for my "6 months" even tho I'm 8months (I saw him at 5 mo for an issue that he was useless for). If I have a great pcp, internist, and gastroenterologist who follow me closely, do I need to see the surgeon?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Babbs 14,681 Posted April 21, 2015 You're right. You don't. I strictly see my PCP. She even did my 6 month blood work for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamieLogical 8,710 Posted April 21, 2015 I've only been seeing my PCP since I was sleeved in Mexico. I do have email and phone follow-ups with my surgeon's office, most specifically the nutritionist, but my PCP has handled all my post-op vitals and blood work. I saw her a 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, and I'm scheduled to see her next week at 8 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snowkitten 371 Posted April 21, 2015 That's what I was leaning towards. I'm so glad to know there are others who have successfully done that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
