kayleesmom 0 Posted September 11, 2006 I decided to quit lurking and say "HELLO!". I must say that I am partially in shock. I have been approved for my band! It all happened so fast, that is hasn't really sunk in yet. I got my approval in 1 week! My surgery is scheduled for Oct. 4th. I am as excited as can be then my brain goes OMG! Life will never be the same, not that that's bad, but it's kinda spooky. Dr. Richard Carter is doing my surgery. I have so many different things running through my head that I don't know where to start. Thank goodness I found this forum. Everyone seems so helpful. Thank you all for sharing your stories. For those of you who do....say a quick one for me. Thanks and continued success to you all... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pumpkin5 0 Posted September 12, 2006 Hello and congratulations! Dr. Carter will be my surgeon as well. I'm having the procedure done at AIGB in Hurst. I'm not approved yet, still gathering all of the stuff required by CIGNA HMO of Texas. Which insurance carrier do you have? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nursekathy2u 0 Posted September 12, 2006 I'm from Fort Worth. I chose Dr. David Kim at North Hills Hospital. He is WONDERFUL!!! Dr. Carter did a Mastectomy on my little sister when she was just 31yrs old. As far as I am concerned he saved her life!!! I think the world of him. He sat by her stretcher in the preop area and held her hand and comforted her before surgery. She was so scared and his kindness really helped calm her fears. He is a very nice man and a great surgeon!! You can't go wrong with him. Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
