Yeah, Ponce was my first pick but my insurance doesn't cover him. Go figure!!

Thanks for the info! Dr Colquitt may be the closest recommended surgeon for me and, he's covered by my insurance. I've been doing some research on him and his staff. All of the patients comments have been very positive. I wish they would let me know soon if I am approved or not....fingers crossed! Thanks again for your help! :thumbup:)

Hi! My name is Missy. I'm 29 years old and am in the process of trying to be banded. We're submitting info to my insurance company in June with the hopes that I will be approved. I'm excited and also scared to death! I've been visiting this site for a little while now as part of my research efforts and have learned so much from you guys!!

Good luck w/ your decision!! I'm in a familiar place myself. I've been working with my primary since January trying to get everything together for the insurance company so they can decide if they will cover my surgery. I did soooo much research before I reached my decision, but I do think that LapBand is right for my situation. I have battled with the weight my entire life and I finally decided that I was just over it! I'm hoping all goes well with the insurance. We are submitting all the info next month and i'm nervous and excited all at the same time!
