Is anyone from the Asheville area and had their surgery locally. I have been talking with Mission Weight Management but my first consulation isn't until next month and I'm really anxious to get this started!! I was wondering if anyone had any advice to help get my ducks in a row for the insurance. I email the Hickory Clinic but I haven't hear anything from them. Did anyone have their surgery there and how long did it take to get the first appointment? Thanks

Hi guys! I have an appointment next month with the surgery center, nurse and i am having a hard time waiting. I have done research and read post and I am so excited. Once I start the process they said that it could take up to seven months! I have been over weight all my life and I really want the surgery but I not sure the insurance will cover it. I don't have anything but a BMI of 43, family history of diabetes and heart disease. I do have the starting of high blood pressure and depression but maybe they will find that that is enough. Sorry I just needed to get some support because the wait is killing me! Do any of have any regrets with the surgery? Thanks!

Compass Medical is the one that will be making the decisions, anyone dealt with them before?

I have an appointment with a nurse with a weight loss surgery center in Sept and I cannot wait. I just have a few questions, I noticed alot of you guys are self pay. Was the surgery expense with self pay. i have insurance but I don't know if they will pay for the surgery. I am 30 years old and at about 270. I really want to loose weight but I have tried everything. I don't think I can afford the surgery if the insurance doesn't pay for it. The surgery center that I am going to requires seven months of information and appointments before surgery is that normal? :eek:
