Hiya,

Well the thing is pretty much every insurance company will cover this surgery "IF" the policy you have "includes" WLS (weight loss surgery). Unfortunately in my case like so many others out there the insurance policy that my company holds WLS is excluded. This unfortunately is extremely common as companies don't want to pay the higher premium to have it covered. So that is why I went to Dr. Kuri for surgery.

For me finding him was really easy since a close aunt of mine went to him 5 years ago. You can find him at -

Lap Band Surgery - Dr. Kuri & Associates

If you or anyone wants I can put you directly in touch with a patient coordinator who was excellent in handling my case before the surgery and even has followed up with me several times since surgery. Best of luck and please feel free to message me any time!
