CountryGirl5584 115 Posted February 21, 2015 Horizon nj health is Medicaid and direct access can be either a pos or PPo it just means you don't need a referral Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StephaC 7 Posted February 22, 2015 That's kind of a trip, but I'm not getting great vibes from my doctor so it might be worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StephaC 7 Posted February 22, 2015 You need to be comfortable with your surgeon! Where are you located? Morristown. In every encounter with him, he has been short and condescending. My boyfriend mentioned it at first, but I didn't pay too much attention. When he essentially hung up on me a couple of days ago over a miscommunication, after telling me "he is only here to help, I have to call doctors and do that work myself," that just was the straw. I wasn't even talking to him, I was talking to an office worker who must have misunderstood me and suddenly the surgeon was on the phone. It was strange.

gowalking 10,790 Posted February 22, 2015 Hi NJ folks. We have quarterly face to face meetings in NYC and welcome our bariatric friends on the other side of the Hudson River. If anyone is interested in finding out more about the meetings, just feel free to reach out to me. As you see from my signature, I'm a co-leader for the NYC chapter. We've had Jersey folk attend before and welcome any of you as well. Liz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will then be able to get a list of docs near you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
