thank you, a little bit far for me, but if I can't find one a little closer, I will definitely call him! I tried to do some research on the carefirst website but have no idea what type of doctor to look for...I am closer to baltimore...

I just started the process, but I'm using Dr. Singh at St Agnes. He was rated one of the top docs by Baltimore Magazine. I'm in BC/BS PPO plan, so I'm not sure if that makes a difference. My endocronologist said that of his patients who have had surgury, those who had it at St. Agnes have done the best. Dora

You might also want to check the various hospitals that are"centers of excellence". Besides St. Agnes, I know Sinai is one and I think GBMC is one. Compare the names of their docs to the bcbs list and I think you'll find several in the Balto area. Dora

I live in Maryland and have BC/BS and am going to a doctor in Delaware, Dr. Peters at Chrias. He's part of a group and is excellent.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
