    Scroll down to the 3rd section and find your state. Then find your city. Google the doctors that are listed.

    Also check with your insurance carrier - ask for a bariatric surgeon. That's how I found mine.

    Google Bariatric Centers Center of Excellence in your state. Look for your Area and find a Dr. That belongs to a Center of Excellence.

    It also could be a requirement from your Ins. Company.

    I found a website and they sent me a little info about the doctors in my area. I just dont know what to ask when I call them. I am stuck. And I am also stuck on trying to find someone to help and finance it without me having any insurance.
