une nouvelle vie 327 Posted August 30, 2014 Dr Curry patient here. I traveled from central Ohio and had surgery in June at the JourneyLite facility. JourneyLite is outpatient only I believe, they had me up and walking within an hour of waking up and after 4 hours I left the facility to go to a nearby hotel so I could be close if there was a complication. I had very little pain and nausea. After the night in the hotel room I went straight home and didn't need to see the doctor again until my 2 week post op appointment. Since then I've had one more appointment at about 5 weeks and my next one is in 2 weeks. @SheriL1... there are support groups. I get emails for them but since they're 2 hours away for me I don't go although he did have one in central Ohio last month. It was about plastic surgery and since I'm only 2 months out, I skipped it. I have to say my experience with Dr Curry's office has been a very positive one. I think you're in good hands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tlbailey79 1 Posted August 31, 2014 I just looked at my insurance benefits and it looks like they pay 80% on bariatric surgery. Is that typical? Is it good? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
une nouvelle vie 327 Posted August 31, 2014 That I can't answer. My insurance won't pay for any weight loss procedures. I had to self pay. Sounds good to me for that reason With 80/20 plans there is usually an out of pocket limit per year. It's the limit of what you'll pay out of pocket before your plan starts paying 100%. Check to see what yours is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tlbailey79 1 Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) Is Dr. Curry a good doctor? How's his bedside manner? Edited September 1, 2014 by tlbailey79 1 alliel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
une nouvelle vie 327 Posted September 1, 2014 He made me feel very comfortable and makes sure you have information, which I love. He'll make sure you have his email address and answers quickly if you have a question. His whole office is a no-shame zone and they do not judge you. I'm so happy I chose him as my doctor. I drove two hours to have surgery with him when there are qualified surgeons right here where I live. Make sure you ask him any question you have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fran1234 0 Posted February 9, 2018 I know this is an old thread, but does anyone have Trace Curry’s email address they could share with me? I am considering the sleeve surgery and would like to ask him specifically a few questions. I know I can email the Journeylite facility, but I can’t find just his email address. Thanks!
