queencity 62 Posted July 21, 2015 GoodiDre, are you seeing carolinas weight mana. Or southeast bariatrics? Or another office? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoodiDre 18 Posted July 21, 2015 GoodiDre, are you seeing carolinas weight mana. Or southeast bariatrics? Or another office? I'm about a month out from a seminar and still a month away from an appt with Carolinas Weight Mgmt. I expect this process to take time, but I'm kinda over the slowness. I called Lake Norman Bariatric today (after 5pm) and they're supposed to call me back tomorrow. Who are you seeing? I'm guessing QueenCity makes you local Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I went with carolina's surgical (well, that and my mom's surgeon is there) Yeah I had to wait 2.5 months to even get in the seminar. So I've been waiting since March for pretty much nothing. Did you have a good experience with Carolina's Surgical? I may contact them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who is your Surgeon? I work at UNC Hospitals. I am going with Dr. Farrell. Dr Farrell is doing my surgery. I REALLY like him. He is one of the few surgeons I have ever seen that didn't treat me like some oddball because of my abdomen. Have you met with him yet? Do you have a surgery date yet?

queencity 62 Posted July 21, 2015 GoodiDre, with southeast bariatrics you have the option to do the seminar online as long as you have a passing grade. Then once you take the test then you fax in the application and copy of insurance card and they call you the next day and my appointment was about 3 weeks out after they called me back.
