This is my first blog posted and I just joined this site today. Friday I went to my very first seminar and it was very informative. I can make my appt to see a surgeon and discuss the lapband with him/her on Tuesday. This is my problem, I do not have a primary doctor and need a referral for my first visit with the surgeon and without it I can not start my process. Now will a primary doctor give me a referral with my first visit or is that something I have to wait on?
Also since my GYN is the first one who suggested the surgery for me will he be able to give me a referral just to get the ball rolling? I am going to get me a primary doctor because I know I have no choice and need one for clearance, I just want to get the ball rolling as quickly as possible. Any advice?
