In my prior blog I was talking about going with Dr. Arif Ahmad but he was out of network and i was willing to deal with it since i could have the surgery with in a month and I read so much about him.

But my ex supervisor (the best supervisor you can ever have) told me about the doctor she went to and he in my network. she had great results with him and his staff is very helpful and almost all his staff had the LAP-BAND® surgery (performed by Collin Brathwaite).

so anyway I decided to listen to my ex supervisor and I called Dr. Brathwaite office and I spoke to a lady name Gina, who was very helpful and she didnt act like I was taking to much of her time by asking questions and asking her to explain stuff to me.

So by the end of out 15 mins conversation she put me in a seminar, give me a consultation, nutrition appt, and phyc appt.

I looked up a lot about Dr. Collin Brathwaite and he has very great reviews and PLUS PLUS PLUS he is in my network:thumbup: (YAY) so instead of my having to pay $500 (383$ as my deductible and the rest was for my nutrition appt and phyc) to Dr. Arif Ahmad all I have to pay is $150 to Dr. Collin Brathwaite.

The 150$ is just for my nutrition and pych appt. so I am very excited and I cant wait to go through everything and be able to have a great 2010 to look back on when Jan come back around again:smile2:

If anyone knows anything else about Dr. Collin E. Brathwaite I would really like to know
