      That's really good to hear! I've been nervous....my insurance has a 12 month wait, but I did 12 months of weight management through them... so I'm hoping we are starting the process in time that all

    Yes, I have my surgery scheduled for May 30 with Dr Fitzer. I have heard so many good things about him and his staff. My niece and a good friend of mine also used him for their surgery and highly recommended him!

    I did the webinar Monday and I have my first appointment May 12. My friend used him for her surgery too; and she recommended him. She has only had great things to say! I have PEIA insurance and a little concerned with how long I could have to wait....hoping I don't have to wait that long.

    He's great. I have nothing to complain about. He is his own on call physician which I was surprised about, but super grateful for. He has a thorough eating regimen and really sets you up to be successful.

    Hi everyone,

    Im scheduled for surgery with Dr. Fitzer, I know im pulling up this thread from a while ago, but i was wondering if he required any one of you to do an endoscopy or sonogram before surgery? I am a self pay patient.

    So far he hasn't had me do that....but my insurance requires 12 months supervised diet. I'm getting ready for my 6th visit.
