I have been looking too, my doctor does not take care.credit and will only take financing from finance companies if you are self pay, I have insurance but can't afford the out of pocket right now so I have been stuck since last September when they initially set my surgery date. Is there any finance companies that would pay the money to me so then I could pay the doctor's.

Hi. I just started my journey and just joined this site. I was fortunate to get my financing approved before finding a dr. I found this site and it's loaded with info. I fell fortunate to be part of it. I got financing with United Medical Credit. I was able to to use a co-signer and the terms are ok considering I have to loose a ton of weight. My advice is start locally in your area some Dr's will provide financing some will not. When I mentioned I had a full time job but bad credit, I got a bunch of "we can't help you's" a few mentioned United Medical Credit. I feel blessed with a chance to start my life over. I am currently checking out the local Dr's for the best one. Good luck!!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
