Michael Sharpe General Practitioner M.D.
At first last year when I mentioned seeking help from a bariatric doctor due to weight gain, Doctor Sharpe was not supportive, he asked me "What can he (bariatric Doctor) do?" I sought help from bariatric doctor anyway. After bariatric doctor confirmed that my original bypass had a failed suture line I went back to Dr. Sharpe and he was neither supportive nor non-supportive, merely listened to my plans to have revision of failed suture line. He did tell me most patients with a failed suture line DO NOT have it repaired. I did not ask for his help in getting approval in any way but felt he should know about surgery as he was PCP and would be getting paperwork as well as asked to do follow-up after surgery. He did send Dr Thoburn a referral form for when insurance was filed.
