rnsamantha 352 Posted May 5, 2015 Today was the big day for me! My bariatric patient advocate submitted all my documents to my insurance company. She said it should take 2 weeks to hear back. Fingers crossed I get approved!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rnsamantha 352 Posted May 27, 2015 My surgeon will be Dr Fang at Bridges center in Phoenix. Apparently I've made it through the preliminary review that shows I met all the insurance prerequisites for surgery, but final word on surgery approval is still pending...

Noragretz 28 Posted June 16, 2015 I'm in Casa Grande, I had to self pay. Arizona docs were higher priced than other states. I traveled to Nevada for surgery. But I attended a seminar with Dr Fang here in Arizona, that's when I decided to just have surgery - as I was attending with a friend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
