I have UHC too. They were great all along. It's really good that they send you to a Center of Excellence for WLS. You read some surgeon horror stories on this board. If you have to travel for your surgery, they will pay for hotel, etc.

Congratulations!!! Your new chapter will be extremely rewarding. It will be tough at times, but after 2 1/2 months I feel amazing! I wish for you a smooth process. :-)
