Hey,

I just moved to the Nashville area from KC. I was banded almost 2 years ago by Dr. Malley in KC. I was looking for a surgeron's office here to develop a relationship.

In talking with the Allergen rep via Dr. Malley's office, they gaveme Dr. Morton's name. Can anyone on here vouch for him or let me know if he does support groups or anything?

Thanks

How long does it take for self-payers (which I will be) from consultation to surgery? I can't go down for the consultation until the 19th. I hate that I have to wait that long without knowing how the process works. :smile2:

Hey, since you are self pay I don't know what Dr. Morton requires. It was my insurance that required the 6-month weight loss (try) documentation and the pysc exam. I know how it is to be so curious. You can call Dr. Morton's assistant, her name is Anoosh, I don't know her last name but there is only one Anoosh (not sure of spelling either, but that is the way it's pronounced)--she is a great lady--and I'm sure she can tell you the time line. I don't mind if you tell her that I told you to call her. Hope she will help.

I was self pay and had my surgery 1/07 by Dr. Morton it has been great, everything I could have hoped for!! I really didn't have to wait long after my consultation since I was self pay. Just waited long enough to do my 2 week liquid diet. Good Luck you will love the whole staff!!

Mine is pretty much the same story. My first visit with their office was 2 weeks ago. On my 2nd week of preop diet now surgery set for the 23rd:biggrin:
