Mary007 0 Posted March 9, 2017 Hello, how soon did y'all get a date for surgery? Did you guys get a chance to pick the surgery date or do they give you one? I have important dates during my estimate surgery date. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Syaniya 319 Posted March 10, 2017 They called and asked if a certain date was good. For me it was, but if not they had further out dates. Some insurances once approved will allow the approval to be good for a period of time. My insurance approval was good for a year, so im sure youll be able to get a date that works for you.

BgR72 113 Posted March 10, 2017 I told the nurse after my surgery consult that only the 2nd week of May will work for me. She walked over to the schedule and made a note. She told me requests arent a problem but the paperwork can cause a delay if it didnt get submitted in time. We all have a life so I figure whats wrong with giving them a good time for me based on my schedule. Nothing wrong with that. I have heard where they would call if there was an opening to ask if you would like an earlier date. I guess it justs depends if your office is open to requests.

vsg_queendiet 73 Posted March 10, 2017 After turning everything in took about a week. My doctor only did surgery on Mondays and Tuesdays. They usually give you a quick date after your approve.

Krisbell 26 Posted March 10, 2017 I got to choose my date. They had openings within 2 weeks - 4 weeks. I wanted to be the first surgery of the day (because of my anxiety) so they told me which date they had where I could be first and I decided to go ahead and take it.
