Montgomery, AL doctors?



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any recommendations for doctors in the Montgomery area? I found Dr. Mora in Prattville, but so far no one has returned my call. Dr. DeWitt in Birmingham has responded, but Prattville is closer. Has anyone used either Dr. Mora or Dr. DeWitt, and if so, would you recommend either one? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I live in Montgomery and found no doctors in Montgomery that still do the lapband. I did find Dr Mora in Prattville. It took a few calls before I was able to get information from their office. Before they see you, you have to sign up and attend a seminar. The soonest I could get to a seminar was a 1.5 months away.

I ended up going to Dr DeWitt in Birmingham. I need to see the nutrionist before insurance will approve me. They have been very good with everything. I had to attend the seminar 1st here also, but only had to wait 2 weeks. Alot of the tests that I need done, I was able to schedule thru my PCP in Montgomery. Some you cannot .. ie Psych exam, and nutritionist, the Pre-op consult and the initial consult.

I live in Calera, and used Cahaba Valley Surgical in Alabaster. I used Dr. Sherer, and was banded last month. I have also heard of many people using Dr. Christopher. They operate at Shelby Baptist.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
