  3. :drool:Hi Amy, I would highly recommend the connecticut surgical group. i have done quite well with the program although it is a slow process and not a magic bullet. I still struggle with eating slowly and making the right choices but I started at 245 and I am now 178. So that's not bad from 3/12/08. I don't carehow long it takes as long as I lose....

  6. I am looking into using the CT surgical group in Hartford. I have an appt with dr. Papasavas. Just wondering if you have had a good experience with this group. Any feedback would be welcome. Thanks!

  7. :scared2: This is my first post. I have Aetna insurance and have been told by Aetna that my type of insurance does cover lap band surgery. I have gone to the initial lap band seminar. I have had the pysch eval, the nutritionist consult, and an appt with the nurse practitioner on staff. My hospital here in NH has never dealt with Aetna for this procedure so the insurance liason is not very clear what the expectations are for Aetna. We are reading the clinical policy bullitan very carefully, and yet some of it is unclear. There are clearly 2 options; 6 month and 3 month. I would love to do the 3 month option but am unclear about the exercise regime part. It says you must work with a certified exercise therapist or "other qualified professional". I would love to hear from people who have done the 3 month option and been approved. Could you tell me exactly what you did to meet this requirement in particular. Any help, much appreciated! Amy
