Let me take the opportunity to vent in this post because I too have sent my paperwork into the surgeon. In fact, I ran around and completed all of my appointments and hand delivered all of my clinical information and letters to my surgeons office on Monday, however they still keep calling me saying that I am missing things and havent submitted anything to insurance yet.... ummm look in the perfect folder that I dropped off and you will find all that you ask me for!

I know that because I am a manager in a hospital that I have a lower tolerence for getting the runaround because I feel like I can just do it myself but I am getting very frustrated.

Moral of the story is that I need patience too...sigh...vent over.:devil_smile:

I understand, my surgeon won't even see a patient until we do all the homework . This better not take months when ive done it all.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
