How long did the approval process take for you? Which insurance are you on? Trying to get a better idea of timeline. Now that I've committed to do this, I'm so impatient to get it done :)

I have bcbs TX and it took about 10-12 days after my doctors office submitted the request for them to generate the approval (which was last Friday). They called me today to schedule the actual procedure. It felt like forever but in all honesty the process went quickly. I first walked into my doctors office determined to have this done just 1 month ago (almost to the day).

Wow, thank you for responding, I hope mine moves along that fast :) I too have BCBS TX. I'm doing my psych eval and nutrition eval both next Tuesday. Good luck with your surgery. So exciting...

I'm using Dr Frenzel (BodEvolve) and facility is Forest Park Medical in Dallas. One of my best friends is going through Dr Nicholson. Have a cousin who had great success with Dr Holder but another cousin who had nightmare experience with Dr Cernero...poor thing is still leaking and it's been 6 weeks! Nerve racking but so excited to start this journey.

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
