Topic: Ffld. County Bariatrics- Dr. Ehrlich Patients
FYI... I got a call from one of the office staff this evening from them letting me know that Dr. Ehrlich is no longer with Ffld. County Bariatrics.  I can't remember who it was (but it was a private cell phone number), but they said that something happened between the other docs in the practice (Drs. Neil & Craig Floch) and Dr. E is no longer with his practice, he was locked out of the Fairfield office with no access to his patient's charts.  She said that this has been in the works for awhile, but they all thought that the lawyers would figure things out and the split would be much more organized, she said that his staff has decided to stay with him, they have temporary office space in Trumbull though I can't remember exactly where but I believe she said Technology Drive, which is off Rt. 111 near the Monroe border.  They will be sending an email out to his patients, for those who have given that info. so once I get that email I can post it.  She said that the practice isn't releasing the medical records unless asked, and obviously they're swamped with those requests.  They still have access to the online system that they use to log their fills, for now. 

I had an appt scheduled for wednesday for a 6 week follow up with him, so they called me because they had his schedule for the week.  When I saw him 6 weeks ago he mentioned nothing about any issues or his possibly leaving... this was all very sudden according to the person that I spoke with. 

For his patients that still want to continue to see him, he won't leave you in your time of need... Dr. Ehrlich is a wonderful and compassionate man who cares about his patients, that much I know.

Hi Becky!

Yes, Dr. R is married.  He and his wife are expecting another child soon.  (I believe they already have two).

He is a great guy!

Topic: The Holidays Are Here!! Crossing Over to Transfer Addictions
http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/crossingtotransferaddictions/

Hi All,

The Holidays are here: more food, more alcohol, more shopping, more EVERYTHING!!!!

There is a new OH Online Support Group. The above link will get you there.
It's called
Crossing Over to Transfer Addictions

This group discusses the issue of transfer addictions (also known as cross addictions) after weight loss surgery. there are millions of people who have undergone gastric bypass who are now dealing with issues of addiction transfer.

For a number of people, giving up overeating leads to adoption of a new compulsion. Addiction transfer occurs when someone is unable or unwilling to rely on one compulsion (for us, it was food) and so switches to a new compulsion (alcohol, drugs, sex, gambling, shopping, internet, porn, etc) due to not having dealt with the underlying issue behind the compulsion.


***Please feel free (and safe) to join and discuss any and/all issues you have regarding Transfer Addiction. ***

WE WILL SUPPORT EACH OTHER WITHOUT JUDGEMENT!
