I am also seeing Dr. Hamilton Le at Integris Baptist and I also have Aetna insurance. My plan requires 3 months of non-surgical weight loss prior to surgery. Aside from that, I will be finished with all of my requirements tomorrow afternoon. My 3 months will be up when I see the nutritionist for my last visit on Nov 11th. I'm hoping to have surgery before the end of the year. How far along are you in your journey?
