What a great idea I'm def interested once I get my surgery aug19 that's the cutest idea ever!! Thx

Hey the sheet just had numbers on it I have no idea what it meant I'm guessing it was so he knew what to go over with me, but he also seemed like he didn't know what to talk about hopefully next visit will be better if not I may have to see someone who knows a Lil bit more! But he did sit in front of his computer lol!

So actually they can be all done (3 visits) in a month just wanted to clear that up.

@@Ms Bailey hey hope all is well I told u I would keep u posted just wanted ti let u know that the nutritionist doesnt has to be scheduled every 2 wks they were right with what they told me its pretty much get it when u can and if that means once a week thennthats okay cause thats how I scheduled mine! Hope this helps it pays to keep up with insurance and how they like to change things! Take care hows ur process going?

hey it went well I seen him todqy he talked a little wbout nutrition but didnt make me do a journal or anything not sure why but I have been on my own diet and lost 14lbs so he seen the beginning weight from a month agobut he was pretty easy going he printed me up som3 things to read. Before I left I made an appt for next Friday so I have 2 more visits so they defenetly dont have to be 2 wks apart I think its just the drs preference cause ur right they told me the same ins onky cares about one visit but my dr wants me to see him 3 times. Ill keep u posted if he makes me write a journal! Take care thanx for checking up let me know when ur almostvready to summit to ins I hope it comes fast for u

forgot this part not sure if I mentioned it technically ins requires only 1 nutrition visit but my dr wanted for me to do 3. Crazy ins always changing requirements always gotta keep up with them!

Hey ariellestar how did your appt turn out withndr. Fried? I spoke to the cordinator at dr. Wasser office and because im going to a nutfitionist thats doesnt participate with the hospital it just has 2 b 3 appts I have them all sfheduled before may 22 so its almost under 2 wks but I called ins company and everything and they said nothing with it havingbto b 2 wks apart. I know everyone sqys different but I think its all who u see caue ins does not say it HAS to be 2 b wks apart. Tell how u made out imsee him on Friday and yes he was the same way with me asking what I need to do but my surgeon gave me a sheet to take with me

Lol yes he did sound kooky I see him this friday! Have you seen Dr. Fried yet? He sounded a little kooky on the phone and didn't really know what to do. I have my appointment on Monday with him. I'll have to double check on the three visits just to be safe! I have heard something similar to what mrsbailey said. I've managed to make all my appointments before my second visit with the surgeon, so I'm hoping he will give me a surgery date then! I'm hoping for June. How many visits did you have with the surgeon before you got your date?

Ms . Bailey yes ur right it cant be 3 nutrition visits in a monthnthatbwas just the example she gave me she wasnjust saying it can be back to back but not once a month for 3 mth. So happy I dont have to wait 3 mths

I dont have a date at all I just had a consultjust made all appts and last appt is 5-22-14 so im hoping they will submit it around then so I can be scheduled in june also! I know im jumping the gun but Im limited with time and that monthnis perfect for me to take some time off!

Hey thanks for getting back to me I wrote down the requirements from insurance hut never a packet. Im also going to dr. Fried I think hes also in ocean for my nutritionist visit luckily its covered cause I have 3 I have to go to I found out called coordinator again to see if she found out and she told me I was right but he still wants me to go to 3 but can be done in a month or whenever doesnt have to be 1 a month for 3 mths! I been researching vsg for months now im ready so im glad I dont have the 3mth wait! Im hoping I van get all paperwork in for june surgery! Donu have a date? U excited?

Lol typing error ill try this again my name is Nicole I am new to this wls community and love the support from all the wonderful people here. You all answered so many questions from just reading the posts here. I am hoping to have the vsg done just has 2nd consult first was with goldstein 2nd was with Dr. Wasser and my 3rd is on the 14th with Dr. Rohit Patel! I have horizon nj health. Any opinions about any of these Dr's? Also did anyone have to do a 3mth nutrition visit? One office told me yes but the other no and the insurance also said no but they change so much! Thank you to all for takingnthe time to read have a great day! And keep motivated!!!
