A270 0 Posted July 16, 2017 I have a very general question. How do you switch bariatric surgeons when you are very far into the process but have not yet had the surgery? No problems with the surgeon. Have just recently discovered that I may have better options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Berry78 4,261 Posted July 16, 2017 I didn't do this, but would recommend you meet with the new surgeon (or his/her staff), and explain the situation. They can help you figure out what to do. If you feel super strongly about this, then even if it means starting the process completely over, be willing to do it. The postop care is an ongoing relationship.. kinda like marriage. Most surgeons don't like taking patients that were operated on by another surgeon, especially if there is a complication. So make sure you are comfortable with your choice before going under the knife. 1 Sammie1221 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
