MemphisWLS 58 Posted July 3, 2016 I have noticed that a lot of sleevers are very excited talking about their experiences with their surgeons except those of Dr. Woodman. I have read wonderful reviews on Dyer, Westmoreland, Houston to name a few. All sleevers with Dr. Woodman in Memphis TN please take a few mins to tell us newbies how the experience went---, surgery, pre-op, office staff, dos and don'ts, bedside manner of Dr and any bit of information that might help all those interested. And yes I have Aetna Open Choice. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MemphisWLS 58 Posted July 3, 2016 No I am still hearing the same complaints about him and I am really worried. I am not sure my insurance will pay, I have Aetna with Baptist but I am considering going to centennial/tri star in Nashville Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gina171 626 Posted July 3, 2016 But I will give the benefit of the doubt that maybe he has come to know Jesus since that time period and is no longer a miserable asswipe. Good luck! Actually, some of the meanest people I've met loudly proclaim that they know Jesus. No kindness guarantee by association.

jay2016 5 Posted July 3, 2016 I have my first appointment with him scheduled on 7/14/16. (I think that’s the date). I work with Primary Care physicians who send a lot of patients his way, they alway had a positive referring relationship Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MemphisWLS 58 Posted July 4, 2016 Hi Jay2016 please keep me update. My first appt with him is 8/8/16. I have to do 6 months with Aetna started last week. Saw Psych and my first weigh-in, seeing his recommended RD on 7/15. I have called the office a few times with questions and they were very abrupt and not rude but cold like I was bothering them. My PCP is with Germantown Internal Medicine. I was warned by psych that he is not warm and fuzzy, he can be quite rude but an excellent surgeon. We will see. I need warm and fuzzy....lolll. Anyway do you mind keeping in touch? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
