Living in Terre Haute and looking to find the closest support meeting.

I personally did not have so many problems with the office before my surgery and working with them to get it approved.  I feel very fortunate after reading about so many other people's struggles!

However, I was really surprised that after my surgery, my first follow up appointment was scheduled for 6 weeks following my surgery!  I would have thought the first appointment would have been within a week or two.  Then once I got there, because there was some high maintenence individual before me that went way over their appointment time, my appointment started almost 45 minutes late and then I only talked to Dr. Inman for 5-10 minutes and I was out of there.  I felt so rushed, I forgot to ask so many questions because I was so flustered.  I still don't know what the doctor's target goal weight for me is!  Don't doctors usually give you a target weight?  I've seen that from other people on the messages boards here for my surgery. 

Anyway, I think that they are way overscheduled and actually cannot handle all of the patients they are accepting.  Yes, we all want to make more money, and more patients = more $$, but if the office can't provide appropriate service and care, I really feel like they should consider reducing the amount of new patients they accept until they can catch up.

Congratulations!  I wish you and your husband well on your weight loss journey!
