Thank you Kristina , I know that it varies from site to site - but all I know that I am thankful that it is a covered benefit in my plan . I paid only 15 dollars co-pay for my knee surgery so hopefully it is the same for this procedure . It sounds like you've had a positive experience going through Kaiser. I hope mine goes smoothly . -

Wow , I hope you feel better soon , thank you for your support , where are you located ? I am going through so many emotions right now I feel lost and out of control ... Please keep me posted on your progress , again, get well soon . -
Hello all , I hit rock bottom , I'm 42 turning 43 June 25h. I'm 5"3 CW 215. BMI 38.1 - I've been pre diabetic and all the other complications. With weight gain . In April , I tore my ACL and just recently had surgery for that. So I've been home bound for almost a month . I can't exercise or bear weight on my leg ... The weight has been creeping up ... I'm a single parent of a 17 year old boy and 4 year old girl . I never go out or want to be seen due to the shame i feel. Recently I was browsing through my iPad pictures and I found a full length picture of me while waiting for my RX at Kaiser . I looked in horror - I had no idea I looked so big . Depression kicked in badly so much I scheduled an appt with my primary doctor and saw her the next day ... I bawled like a baby when she asked me why I was there ... I just broke down. It was. The best thing that could of happened ... She was so compassionate. And offered the weightloss surgery ... She prescribed a stronger dosage of my Wellbutrin and was concerned about my emotional health . While there at the office , she called the psychiatric dept and put in a referral . The next morning I got a call from the p psychiatric dept to schedule a visit - I go this coming Monday - and then I got a call from the other dept that schedules for the weightloss classes - I am scheduled for next Wed ( which is my birthday) for the two hour class ..... My question to you KAISER / OAKLAND patients ; what happens next ? I believe only one class is needed ... I just had knee surgery so I imagine I meet all the criteria ... I could really use a friend since I am keeping this a secret from my family and work except for HR ofcourse . How long is the process ? Help - btw I m new here and to all of this.
