Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Medical Professionals? Hello everyone. I am reading through alot of new and old post and I have realized there are alot of medical professionals here on this board these days...... It is kind of cool to have that in common with so many of you. How many of you are medical professionals? I myself as many already know am a Registered Nurse. Have been one for 13 years now. I have experience in many fields from inpatient med surg, to OR but my favorite is the mental health field. I have most of my experience in this area. I work now on an outpatient basis with children and adolesents in foster care. I love it. Ok so who is next? What do you do? What area do you work in and how long have you done it? LittleLisaMarie

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Hi ya Lisa yes I noticed the same thing. Me Im a LPN. Been working that field now for almost 10 years. Had a late start and went to college when I was 30. Im also a NRCMA. Nationally Registered Certified Medical Assistant. I took that in college after finishing my LPN because that field is rapidly devloping and will take over the LPN's one day. Its Just being proficent in the front office as well as the back. I acutally use both on a daily basis which is great. I have worked in Occupational Medicine. Seen alot there. Those Drs taught me about all I know. Worked ER. Sad Sad place to work. Had to leave that. Cardiology for a while, and Primary Care. Im currently work and stay with Otolaryngology. I always wanted to work in Peds however.... I had to think long and hard about that because of the love I have for kids. I know I would meet a child that had cancer or some horrific disease and It would break my heart so bad I would want to give it up. I have spent my life taking care of people in some fashion or form. Its somthing I absolutly love to do. Howver somthing I know that I could not handle very well is Nursing Home work. After watching both of my parents die at early ages and taking care of them on a daily basis. My mother died with Breast cancer at 47 and my father with liver disease at 54. I have taught college for the Medical Assistants program for a year and a half along with the pharmacy tech program and medical terminolgy for all the medical fields at the college. I found I love teaching if you can get a Dean at a college to understand the needs of Medical Students. I dont know if they ever will. Well that is about it about me. |
