slim2be 0 Posted May 17, 2008 Hi Everyone, I'm so excited that I got the call yesterday about my surgery date July2nd with Dr. Geiss on Long Island. Anyone else with Dr. Geiss? Any advice? I look forward to this journey and sharing it with you all and giving any advice I can along the way. Lisa :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angel_P 0 Posted May 17, 2008 Hi, Hopefully I will have a July date with Dr. Geiss too. The only prerequisite I have left is my upper GI, which I have had to cancel twice now due to referral issues. Luckily I was told by his office that my insurance tends to approve within a day or two for the surgery, so I have my fingers crossed! Good Luck and congratulations on your date!:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

debdmd 0 Posted May 19, 2008 I had the surg 11/1/07 with Dr Geiss, they were great. Just try and follow the diet after surg. It will be hard getting used to not drinking with your meals. My insurance only covers adjustments for the first 3 months, so check what yours covers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angel_P 0 Posted May 19, 2008 Do you know how much the fills are after the ones that your insurance cover? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
debdmd 0 Posted May 19, 2008 I think they are $400.00. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
