So I am having my VSG on Jan 20th. I have read so many posts about patients who had surgery in Mexico having their PCP not willing to continue with their care. So needless to say I was nervous to have this conversation with my PCP-she is on board 100% with my care and will do anything she can to help me be successful! Feeling awesome!

I was so nervous to talk about my WLS decision with my PCP and I wasn't having surgery in Mexico.  But she'd been my doctor for FOREVER, so I was really worried I'd have to find a new one.
