Shortlynx2 34 Posted June 20, 2015 Hello Notforthefaint, I am in Davie out west near Weston. I am hoping I will get my surgery date in early August. I have my sleep study on Fri 6/26 then one more visit for Nutrition and my endoscopy in July. Hopefully, I get a fast response on the approval from insurance.

Shortlynx2 34 Posted June 20, 2015 I am actually going to the Oband center in Hollywood. My surgeon will be Paul Wizman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notforthefaint 264 Posted June 20, 2015 I have met Dr. Wizman, years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shortlynx2 34 Posted June 20, 2015 He was recommended by my primary MD, she sId he had a very low complications rate for surgeries and the RN in her office used them for her band surgery last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notforthefaint 264 Posted June 20, 2015 When I met him I went with my ex-husband (he'd had a bypass and out-ate his surgery as Dr. Wizman put it). He would have been my first thought honestly but he wasn't listed in-network for my insurance. I am however ecstatic with my surgeon Dr. Radecke up in Sebastian. We hit it off immediately. My next appointment is this coming Tuesday and I am already chomping at the bit!!! I want to know what's next?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
