Hi, My name is Kelsey. I have been thinking about RNY for a while and in April had my initial consult with the surgeon @ St. Vincent Bariatric Center in Carmel, Indiana. I have had 2 weigh ins with my PCP. I was just wondering if there was any body else who has gone through St. Vincent and what advice you all had? Thank you.

I am having my 6th weigh-in tomorrow with my PCP. I am just wondering does anyone keep doing monthly weigh-ins after the 6 months just to keep on track? Kelsey Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

Unionville is on the opposite side of the county as me but I know exactly where it is. I work with two ladies who live in Unionville. What a small world. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

wow...Haven't found someone who's that close to me yet. I'm maybe 20 minutes outside of Bloomington (which was crazy today with it being IU move in day). I was excited to get the journey started as well now I can't wait to get it finished. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

I'm close to Bloomington. So about an 1 1/2 to 2 hours south of St. Vincent. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

I don't know about insurance being a big pain...I'm sure they are, because they don't understand what we are going through. I know my insurance covers it at St. Vincent so I'm hoping after everything is done...I'm good to go. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

St. Vincent at the consult told us to go through our PCP or we could use a doctor there but it would be better to go with the PCP because they know our history. I'm doing what I was told if insurance doesn't approve I will appeal. Thank you for the heads up. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App I'm close to bloomington. I'm always up for chatting. Just let me know what the best way for you is. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

I live near Bloomington. I'm in my sixth month journey and am in my 4th month. I need to schedule my psych eval still. As of my last visit with my PCP I had lost around 10 pounds since the initial consult with the surgeon in April. I am still needing someone who is going through the same thing as I as I am to lean on and talk about things to that I can't really talk to my family about because they don't always understand.

I will also be a weightloss visit number 4 next month. The part I'm dreading the most is the psych evaluation. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App I've done my psych eval, it wasn't bad, be honest and open. It's part of the making sure you will be successful in this journey. Thanks for the advice. I'm sure I'm ready but then I think I get into my head to much. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

I understand...just reading about both..I felt St. Vincent was better for me. Which stage are you in? Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App I am still doing my supervised weightloss visits. I'll be on visit 4 next month. They are both great hospitals.

Goodluck, I got a referral from my doctor but if I hadn't I would have made the call myself. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App Can you tell me what to expect from the psych evaluation? Goodluck! Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

Then we are not far from each other. I will look into that...thank you. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

I'm just in the beginning stages of my journey. I am 26 and wanting to find some friends so we can support each other through our journies. Also is there any books you can recommend? Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App

I live close to Bloomington...IU territory. Sent from my SM-G928V using the BariatricPal App
