Good luck ! I hope you get a date today !!! I had neighborhood n they switch into health first just now so I finished my exams but then the dr Yatco has to be re enrolled and that takes forever so surgeon coordinator told me to switch to hip ASAP they don't give any hassle and ill get my date in June . So counting down to June 1st when my insurance is active with hip and they call in June 3. I can't wait!!!!

Yea they told me hip has no requirements or additional testings

I think it really depends on tbe hospital cause in jacobi hip has a 6 month diet ..lol even if I switch insurance n was in mount Sinai still required 6 months diet but jacobi doesnt

Yess lol I was going to a weight loss doctor and thank god she told me put her down as my pcp that way I can get surgery because she felt I would benefit more then just her diet she didn't even want to take my money anymore lol

Wow that is amazing

Wow that is amazing

Yes is very few doctors that do that lol I think she felt even more like a mom to tell me that because we were both from the same country well my family is Dominican I was both here but I think that's why. So in a way thank god she said all that To me because she put that idea in my head and I did my research and here I am now lol . I only knew about gastric bypass and I didn't want to do that since I seem friends of mine gain back the weight after five yrs but to know the sleeve is different and lowers the chance of that happening is great but of course eating right and exercise will do the trick
