I got approved by my insurance on 1/30/17. It's 2/11. I haven't heard anything from the coordinator song when the surgery date is when i meet with the dr. Blood work or anything. I have called her she said she was in a meeting and will call back.

Follow up. I had to follow up so much. However, i got my surgery date once i got my insurance approval. Just be persistent and patient. Just my opinion. Here's to an op date!

Be persistent. Ask the insurance company if they can email you a copy of the approval and go to the Bariatric doctor office and see what the problem is.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
