I'm jealous. :) I wish I could find such a friendly group in the DFW area. I'm not going to bother to go to my doctor's support group, I'll be the only DSer there.

 Hi Larissa ..  I guess I've been away from the DS forum a bit long ..  I didn't know Dr. Provost was doing the DS now ..  Were you one of his first?  How many has he done?   Is he doing them more often than Dr. Stewart now, or about the same?      I might look into having him handle my follow-up instead of Dr. S., since Dr. S. seems to be a bit more difficult to get in to see these days .. 

 btw, our N. TX DSers group has just been a bust of late ..    Our last meeting was a few months ago and only 4 or 5 of us showed up for that one  ..  I just checked with our leader and we won't be having an October meeting due to a scheduling conflict she has, but she is going to try to have one in November that doesn't conflict with everyone's Tday holiday plans.   I'll post something here about it when I know more ..  You (and anyone else interested) are always welcome at our group meetings ..

I had my DS with Dr Huacuz in Mexico, and Dr Provost took me in and fixed the botched job when Dr Stewart wouldn't even return my calls. Dr Provost can do DS, but he doesn't like to.

 Curious as to who their surgeon was ...

 Do we even have an "approved" DS surgeon in FL anymore, btw, since that one surgeon (I forgot his name) moved out of the state some time back?

No we don't. The closest is Marietta Ga. Some in the group were from Maquire, Dr M in Brazil and I was Ungson.

That guy went to NYC, he was only inFl for a short while.
