Who is your surgeon and how did you choose?

Hi all,

Just wondering.........
1) Who did you choose to do your surgery, and how did you make that choice?
2) How many docs did you consult with before making your decision?

I have attended a seminar in Boston at the Brigham, and am attending another one tonight at Roger Williams in Providence. I live in Blackstone.

Thanks all,
Vicky

I can't really choose my doctor unless there are few in the immediate area. The way my insurance works they will choose one closest to home for me. It sucks but not all doctors accept my insurance.

Vicky - I went yo Dr. Dean Roye at RI Hospital. I chose him because i heard he lots of Blue Cross members that he was the best - no medical mishaps and he's been doing it for so long. I like him alot although he really makes you realize that this is only a tool for weight loss, not a cure.
