I'm anxious !

[ilgc 17]

So my last doctor appointment was the 18th of Jan and I was under the impression that it would take them at least a week tops to get it into submission because the surgeons office is pretty busy but on my last day the insurance adviser at the office told me she couldn't find my psych evaluation but she was certain it was probably in the pile of papers she had on her desk and would call me if she had any issues.

Fast forward to 3 weeks later and I'm on edge and confused because even the adviser said it shouldn't take her very long so I called the office and turns out she never even found my psych evaluation and didn't call me for 3 weeks ! I understand how busy surgeons offices can be and they're even down a surgeon who transferred to LA but I felt so confused and a little disappointed because the office was so good to me throughout my 6 month weigh in , they were always so quick and let me know if they had any problems. Granted the insurance adviser isn't there every day so I can understand at least a 2 week delay but she never even called me to get another copy. And after I talked with the psychiatrist who did my evaluation he said that she looked through a pile of papers and she found it so like I don't even think she touched it until I called lol idk ! Once she found it she told me either that week (it was last week, Thursday) she will submit it or early next week. I'm really anxious abt that considering our history and I'm not sure whether I should call to make sure she submitted which like I understand in a lot of surgeon offices they don't like that? Lmao I'm not going to let this completely sour the surgery or anything I just want to know how any of you maybe with bad history during this process would handle this? I'd like to just trust it will get done but I don't want another 3 weeks of complete silence

Thank you

I would call. I didn't have any issues like that but because you did have an issue I would just explain that there was a previous issue and you just want to check to make sure all is well
