It's time for an eviction!!!!!!! I am so done with this
OMGoddess. Will send prayers for you. I went to same bariatric group but my surgeon was Dr. Ali. Dr. Chin gave one of the talks @ the support group I attended and he was my second surgeon choice. I guess that makes us sisters of the table. hee hee
Can I ask why you need to use PCP for this issue versus the bariatric group?
BTW, I'm Linda also.

Hello Linda,
Dr Chin actually wants to do a revision surgery. I chose to go elsewhere for a second opinion. When I saw a different Dr. out of USC, who happend to be a bariatric surgeon and a GI specialist, he said he was pretty confident that he could fix me without having to do a second surgery. But because he is outside of my provider group, I have to get authorization from my PCP's office. HMO's suck sometimes. I am hoping to hear back from them this week.
