Need a recommendation for last minute psych eval



Recommended Posts

So, my surgery is in TWO WEEKS! I need to get my psych eval done. Unfortunately, the psychologist my surgeon works with is not covered by my insurance and won't see me. I haven't put this off, I was just able to get time off from work last minute and the surgeon was able to accommodate. This is the last thing I need to do!

Does anyone know of an online psych eval place besides Advantage Point? Or someone in Austin, TX who can do one this week?

Thanks!

I wish I still had the list my surgeons office provided me. I do know all of the online/phone ones were out of pocket. I’d contact your surgeons office if I was you. Sorry I’m not more help. Hopefully someone will chime in

I highly recommend BariatricPsychEvaluations.com. They were very friendly and will do a phone interview. The cost for the evaluation was $150 if your insurance doesn't cover it. This was who my Dr. recommended. I did the online questionnaire on a Wednesday and the phone interview two days later on Friday.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
