Recently, when I try and look at someones Surgeons profile, I get the following message. I really like to be able to see a persons doctors info.

Maybe I'm weird, but I like to know if "my surgeon says....." is coming from someone who has 1 or 31 years of "experience". Also, I like to be able to look and see if other patients of that surgeon experience similar. Why did this change? Thanks! David

This is the message....it says whomever their doctor is.

Ooops!

Dr. Enochs does not currently have an active surgeon listing with BariatricPal!

Please click here to go back to the surgeon search directory

thats right D , choose my doctor why dont you................

Well I know my surgeon is no longer operating, he's retired and I am now seeing another group. So you wouldn't be able to find him on the list.

I'm talking in general Lisa. I can't even "see" my surgeons info. ...Or Alex's.

Am I the only one that can no longer see this?

@@catfish87 your right I tried to search your Dr. and I got that message as well, and it looks like under the message the profile is there but you can't get past the error to view it.

Perhaps the Dr. needs to update his profile with site and it's blocked for that reason?

@@lisacaron

Or maybe it's some new "premium" feature????

Either way, I feel it detracts from the knowledge available here. I put little credence in someone who comes on here and says "my doctor no longer does lapband" and I look their doctor up and maybe call them, and they say of course we still do bands! Just nice to verify the source sometimes.

@@catfish87 I agree with you on both accounts. It's nice to know the Dr.'s are supporting the site by obtaining premium memberships but it's also nice to have a frame of reference...though I suppose you could always google the Dr. and find that information as well.
