I have been to one seminar, and am pretty much decided on that doctor - Dr. Hoehn.

Chances are that my insurance will cover it 100%, even fills, but I don't know for sure yet. I have United Healthcare EPO and Dr. Hoehn's staff, as well as several people online, have told me that UHC is one of the top two ir three companies when it comes to covering WLS costs. I know they don't specifically exclude bariatric procedures."

Hello, I went to a seminar last week thru The Bariatric Center at Shawnee Msn. I have been trying to decide which Dr I want to do mine. Hoehn is one of the options. I also have UHC, who do you have it thru?? This all is scarey, but I feel if I dont do something I'm not gonna be around much longer. A doctor I had 20 yrs ago said, you dont see fat people in the nursing homes.....because they dont make it that long. I am right over the line in Ks.

I live in central Missouri now, about 50miles east of KC, but an a 'north Missouri' girl by birth! haha! I'm going w/ Dr. Jesse Lopez for my surgery and attended their seminar in KC, it was VERY interesting and they answered every question I had. (I had tons believe me!)

Maybe my nervousness will hit sooner or later, but I haven't had one minute that I've rethought about doing this since I made my decision. I'm ready to schedule the surgery date today! I wish you all the best of luck and would love to chat anytime with anyone.
