I wanted to let you know there is a Weight Loss Surery support group in Jacksonville, not sure where, but I think you can find it on line. Then, you can get in touch with people who really know - and maybe attend the meetings too :) Hugs! michelle

Yes my pcp and his staff were great. He is Dr. Albert Alzate and his referral girl, Wendy did an exellent job with my letter of medical necessity. They have offices on University Blvd, near Memorial hospital and on Park st.

My PCP is Michael Sharpe on Normandy Blvd (Westside) he has several WLS Patients. I think you are asking for a PCP and not a WLS Surgeon right? I did see where others were giving you the names WLS Surgeons.
