Hey! I have MVP!!! There are one of the best insurances! I got approved after 1 DAY!..I got banded 08/10/2005,They cover EVERYTHING! I haven't had any problems! Kristen

Hi Kristine, Dr Kwon basically handles everything himself, Although he is opening another office in the middletown Area in Feb and Another doctor is suppose to join the practice..When you go to get checked up we usually see Barbara or Carolyn (nurse practitioners)? Dr Kwon is a Great doctor..I love his office staff.. As for the Pre-op appts. He does have a list of doctors recommended to see however if you want to see your own cardiologist, ETC you CAN however dr kown recommends his doctors.. Kristen
