watkinsca83 1 Posted February 18, 2017 That's the exact reason I'm opting for self pay in mexico. I cant have surgery until December, and the center in Mexico advised me today that Ill have to be reapproved 90 days before surgery, which is September. But still so much easier than all the insurance hoops. 1 Clementine Sky reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sophia86 3 Posted March 14, 2017 Im getting sleeved on the 22nd. Just met my surgeon yesterday dr. Zelada at kaiser west la , he was impressed with my weight loss since my options class. He offered me surgery on the 22nd, next Wednesday! No pre-op diet just Clear Liquids The day before and no eat or drink after midnight. I was so suprised it went by so fast. My first visit with the dr. Turned into a 2 for 1. A consultation appt and pre-op all in one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TeeS41 2 Posted March 14, 2017 I'm in Los Angeles, CA. I'm going through the 12 week of classes that Kaiser Permanete make you take. I'm on week 5 and I feel that surgery could be a great option for me. I'm undecided if I'm going to have it or not. I joined this message board to seek out advice and support. 1 sophia86 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
