I had a very rough day yesterday and wasn’t sure what to do. Thanks to everyone who told me not to give up and to either demand a referral from my PCP or switch PCP’s… I did it!
I left a message with my primary care physician’s (Dr. Marietta’s) nurse and said “I want a referral to Dr. Vorivat Wongsa in Houston for the reason of MORBID OBESITY.” MUCH to my surprise, the nurse called me back and asked for Dr. Wongsa’s phone number and said “ok, it will take 4-5 days for the referral to go through. you can go ahead and make your appointment!”
OH MY GOSH!!! I was sooo expecting to have to fight that I was speechless when she called me! Wow. Now to call Dr. Wongsa and set up a consultation.
