I had an appt with a very highly regarded bariatric surgeon on August 12. I informed him that I definitely want to have the surgery and met with the lady who does the scheduling. She was supposed to let me know about pre op endoscopy and stress test. I haven't heard a peep from her. I've left two messages for her, but still nothing. Does this sound normal? I really want this surgeon, but might have to look elsewhere. What was your experience like? Thanks!

Who was the surgeon and where are you located?

No there not, I had the same thing happen to me and I switched surgeons, since switching sergeons I have had my EKG , seen the Nut, I see the psy or my eval in two weeks, and all of my blood work will be done. I would switch doctors, if your treated this way now imagine these are the same people in charge of your care.

My husband said the same thing! Sounds like you've really got things rolling now. Do you have a surgery date?

I'm in the Dallas area and the surgeon is James Davidson. I am so disappointed!

Not yet I will get that date at the 4 month stage which I'll be in November . Keep us posted we are there for you. And by the way everything you have done will transfer to your new doctor if you decide to changed.

I met with Dr. Davidson and Kim and switched to Dr. Barker and his group- Dr. Hodges did my surgery. They set every date (except surgery) on my initial consult. It was an easy and painless process. I'm almost 10 months out down 102lbs. Their post-op care is great and you can choose which office is more convenient for you- Southlake or Dallas.

Thanks for all the great information. I

I would have to agree with everyone else. My bariatric office was very on top of returning calls, helping with appts etc. very frustrating
