I am switching providers again (3rd time) because now I finally found a doctor who will do both surgeries (Lapband to RNY) at the same time. I was approved for lapband removal with the (1st doctor) but he will do the RNY 3 months after the removal and the second doctor has the same feeling but for a different reason. I completed the nutritional classes and psych evaluation with the 2nd doctor. All I need now is a PCP letter and I will get that Monday so that I can submit it the 3rd doctor. I will have the 2nd doctor send over the psychological report and medical records showing that I attended the nutritional classes. Has anyone experienced anything similar and had issues getting the psych paperwork to the new doctor for submission?

It's cool to see another Tennessean on here. I didn't have a revision, so I'm not sure how the psych eval goes with that, but my Dr got my psych eval before I did. They emailed me saying they had it and a few days later the psych dr called saying he had sent over my eval then the next day, I got the copy of his letter to my surgeons office.

Yea, I rarely ever see a Tennesseean on here. What doctor is doing your surgery? Dr. Wagner in Memphis will be doing my surgery.

Dr Dyer in Nashville did mine in April at Centennial
