Yes, get a new doc. You need one who is on your side and LEARNING new things.

I would consider also threatening a complaint to the College of Physicians and Surgeons.  That is completely unacceptable - two months after saying he'll refer you to the bariatric program and he hasn't gotten off his ass and done it?

Of course, if you do that, you'll burn your bridges with him and need a new doctor.  But you might want to consider getting a new doctor anyhow, since this guy seems like a total slacker, and his staff are jerks for being rude to you about this.

I agree with the others.  Call every single day and ask if they've done it yet.  Reiterate every time that you were told two months ago that they would make the referral.

Referral to registry: Oct 21, 2011    Orientation (TWH): Feb 22, 2012     Surgery: Nov 7, 2012

this seems crazy to me--my Dr. filled out the online referral while I was sitting in his office right after I requested the referral....can't get any faster than that--then I was in the orientation class the next month--there is no excuse why your Dr. could not have gotten this done for you....I'm with everyone else--call the office everyday--or find a new Dr.
