Is there such a thing as a patient advocate for bariatric surgery? I'm having some trouble with a surgery date, so was wondering if there can be 3rd party to help?

Depends on your program, insurance benefits, etc. If there is an advocate program with your insurance, you'll need to call member services and ask them for the information. You can also check online.
