I am a patient with Dr. Eibes at Iowa Weight loss specialists and I cant begin to explain just how great of a doctor he is and I would recommend him to everyone. I started with another doctor in Des Moines and was tired of the long waits just for an appointment and the doctor just didnt seem to really care about me personally. So I transferred over to Dr. Eibes after a friend recommended him to me and they have always helped me with my crazy schedule and he always takes his time to stop and really seems to listen and care.
The insurance person would call me monthly to check up to see how I am doing with my 6 months of diets and then last week she called to say that I no longer need to work on my diets as BCBS of Iowa changed their policy and to say that she went ahead and submitted my pre auth and I was approved.
I am planning on having the sleeve surgery October 27th at Iowa Specialty Hospital in Belmond, IA. Its a small town and I was a little skeptical until I went up there and took a tour of the hospital when my friend had her surgery and the workers are fabulous. I stopped a person to ask directions to her room and the man escorted me to her room where I then found that he was the ER doctor and all their employees do that and every employee stops to say hi if they are walking by.
I am so excited to have my surgery but also a little scarred. I would love to get to know others in Iowa who are just about to have surgery also and hopefully we can go through it together and bounce experiences off of each other.
