Hey did you get approved for surgery?? I'm going through cleveland clinic and I have medical mutual. I'm about 2 weeks into my 3 month required diet. Any advice?

I am actually changing jobs in 3 days: I got hired at Medical Mutual of Ohio and I know they cover bariatric surgery for their employees up to $20k. I've done almost everything they require even though I don't have their medical insurance coverage until April 1st. My question is: when meeting with the surgeons and doing other tests and requirements, are they usually pretty flexible with the days they can make appointments? I have off on the weekends and cannot make appointments during the week unless they are in the evening. I don't get paid time off until I've been with MMO for 3 months (which is fine because I was aiming for surgery in July). This is the part that has me nervous because if they only have 9-5 hours, Monday thru Friday I'm screwed. I know each place is different. I just want reassurance that I can still make this surgery happen. Thanks for any information!

Okay that helps. I just know some doctors appointments really take a long time. Thank you!
