Don't want to go into details but some need to treat all the people the same ,an stop acting like we're a waste of time. Be more polite, courteous, an smile, don't look like u don't want to be there waiting on us.

I have always had a great experience with Dr. Shimer when I go in to speak with him. He is friendly and answers my questions realistically.

Had to go to his semiar first before they give an appointment. That took a month to get in. He did not show up sent his nurse. Probaly the best though. Took another month to get an appt. Which they canceled twice so there went another month. Finally after almost 4 months got to go....pay before you see doctor. If you are on medicad or medicare the only option is lap band. Doctor will tell you with lap band only expect 20lbs a year. They only do y gastric by pass and will not do even if you offer to pay because he says if you are on medicad or medicare it is against the law. What a waste of time and money.....don't bother unless you have regular insurance and it is approved before hand. And it is up to you to get approval....have to prove you have been on diets and pills and baractic doctors.
