I had originally started the process 2 years ago. I was all approved by insurance and then found out I was pregnant (total surprise unplanned) so obviously I had to hold off. My approval was good until right after I had the baby but I didn't want to Rush another surgery fresh out of pregnancy with a newborn. So my approval expired and my insurance has since changed. I went back to the same surgeon I was approved for last time I did my NUT and psych eval and now I find out my insurance doesn't cover this particular surgeon. So now I go this week to a seminar with a new group that's covered under my plan and now hopefully I can get this going with out any more set back. My husband will be taking some time off to help with the kids and my mom as well. I just have to make myself used to getting help and not Over doing it with the kids until I'm fully healed.

I too have had 3 csections and was wondering the same thing! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm so nervous about this too! I have a 6 yrs old a 2 1/2yr old and an 18month old. The 18 month old is still in a crib needing to be picked up etc. they also love to jump on me. It's a concern. I have csection and probably lifted way to soon also. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How did your experience with Dr. Schmidt go? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How was your experience with Dr Schmidt and his office. I was going threw the process and insurance changed so now I have to switch surgeons. In going to the Advanced Lap seminar at St Joe's this week. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App How was your experience with Dr Schmidt and his office.

Hi Sophie! Which surgeon did you use? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

What surgeon are you all using? I also have Horizon BCBS but mine just switched to the Omnia plan. Put me in a bit of a set back i had to change doctors but hopefully I'm back on the right path. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi! I'm new here. I had started the process 2 years ago with Dr. Nusbaum. I was approved and at the same time found out I was pregnant with my 3rd baby. Surprise! So obviously I had to postpone my WLS plans. Fast forward to last month. I went back to Nusbaum, nutritionist, psych eval, they were all ready to submit me and then they realized they don't take new insurance. I'm so upset about this set back but I've done my research and it's lead me to Advanced laperscopic assoc in Paramus. It looks likes they are in my plan tier 1 and I should be good. I'm going this Weds for the seminar. Hopefully I won't have to start completely from Scratch. Im mentally ready to get a move on it and don't want to wait and get nervous. Anyone use Dr. Ewing? Or Dr. Schmidt or Dr. Trivedi? Surgery would be done at Hackensack University. Any feedback would be great Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
