A bit frustrated

[Butterfly711 1]

I finally got pre authorization from my insurance company and have completed appointments with the bariatrician, nutritionist, and psychologist. My 6 month medically supervised diet with be completed at the end of the month. The last step is to have an appointment with the surgeon. The scheduler called today and said that the surgeon is only in the office on Tuesdays and his next appointment is September 30! I was hoping all this could be wrapped up within a month or so but looks like that won't be happening. Has anyone had to wait that long for an appointment with the surgeon? Seems like 3 months is a long wait.

Ask to be put on the cancellation list!

I didn't have to wait quite that long, but I know of people who had to wait a couple of months. Call the doc's office and ask to be moved up if they have a cancellation. Good luck!
