Topic: RE: My first visit
Well I had my visit with Dr. Applebaum nurse today, It was great. His nurse was amazing, she is an actual patient of Dr. Applebaum. I got to see her before and after photos...WOW.... she doesnt even look like the same person. Well we really didnt do much other than get my weight and discuss what the next steps are i.e. (psych. eval,nutrition class, insurance approval). We also talked about what type of surgery I wanted and then had a few minutes of Q&A. Why are you nervous? Did you already talk to him? Well I hope that my lil paragraph helped you a little.

Topic: RE: looking for a pcp in albuquerque
I went to Dr. Jacobi in the past couple of weeks and I really liked him. I got my year lab tests in the mail yesterday and except for a little low potassium everything was normal.
Enjoyed the support group meeting the other night as did my friend visiting from Oregon.

Dr Eisberg's office (Pres) is really friendly towards WLS, his office works a lot with Dr Frezza's (if that's your surgeon) so they know a lot of what he requires and how to help you get set up locally.
Please feel free to email me with any questions

Hey Claudia....
I finally get to see Dr. Applebaum on the 21st of this month. I am hoping to have the surgery around the first part of August.
Did you get a date for your surgery now??? Also what can I expect with this pre-op appointment. Can you share your experience. Im nervious since he was iffy on my surgery until now.
Good Luck...

Topic: looking for a pcp in albuquerque
Hi All, I know this sounds "strange" coming from a 42 year old woman, but I hate going to the doctor. Being a plus size woman, I feel very uncomfortable going, I'm looking for a understanding dr. because I would like to get surgery, I've tried diets my whole life and it just doesn't work for me, I'm tired of being like this, never going anywhere. I would really appreciate any referrals for a pcp, I have pres insurance. Please email me at [email protected]
