jackpell 17 Posted January 5, 2013 I get sleeved on the 11th of January 2013. Dr kim at celebration is my surgeon. My insurance is medicre and they just oked my sleeve. It was a long wait from first sminar to now but it was medicare that was the hangup. They (medicare) just oked the sleeve. You will have a lot of test and classes befor you get a date. Good luck with your choice. I also went to Dr jawad's seminar and decided on Dr. Kim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkniess901 1 Posted January 5, 2013 My husband and I both had our VSG done by Dr. Patrick Domkowski in Sebastian. I would highly recommend him and the staff at Sebastian River Medical Center. 1 miccogirl94 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
srs82781 83 Posted January 6, 2013 Dr Keith Kim at celebration health. I was planning on having surgery with him but insurance denied me. I went thru a long 6 mo journey with him and his staff attempting to get insurance approval. Great facility and top notch staff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miccogirl94 3 Posted May 11, 2013 My husband and I both had our VSG done by Dr. Patrick Domkowski in Sebastian. I would highly recommend him and the staff at Sebastian River Medical Center. I have had the Lap Band, the Lap Band removal and the Sleeve surgery all done by Dr. Domkowski. Awesome surgeon and great person. I would HIGHLY recommend him, or his associate. the office staff is great. I never felt stupid for asking questions, or judged in any way. the way I like to explain it is that you will always wait in the waiting room, but when he is in the room with you, he is focused on you and your needs. Awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
