Hiatal Hernia Program - True Results



Recommended Posts

I'm having pretty much the same experience. I have United Healthcare. They do not have bariatric coverage. I wend to my first appointment,the consultation on June 19, physical,bloodwork etc. about a week later. I have a two hour appointment on July 17, EDG on July 28 and surgery on July 29. Not too many hoops but I will have a $3500 balance.

Hi. Thankfully there were really no hoops to jump through. Mostly just a lot of test. Had blood work and a test to check my heart and lungs the same day as my free first appointment on May 28th, then they did a body comp test, a phych eval, and the last test was my EGD on the 8th. I will be having surgery the 24th. So the whole process took about 2 months. It wasn't too bad. I have heard of of some that has gone a lot quicker. Good luck! Hope that helps.

I had the hernia surgery twice. Once with my hysterectomy (double the fun) and once out of the blue one morning. I have NEVER been so sick in my life and so thankful for narcotic drugs after it.

Hey everyone, I am currently trying to go through True Results Hiatal Hernia Program. I went to my free consultation 2/20/15 where they gave me a physical, and lung test, and I also did blood work. I was told that after my blood work results came back they would contact me to schedule a ECG to check for a hernia. I know they have received my blood tests results because I called & they told me they did & that a nurse would call me back but they still haven't. I'm still nervous I won't have a hernia & won't be able to afford the surgery which I so badly need & want. I know that I have high cholesterol & my liver enzymes are elevated as well due to my weight. Has anyone else out there gone through True Results Hernia Program? If so, how was your experience & how fast was the process to finally get surgery? Thanks! :)

Yes I went thru True Results in Austin.

My insurance did not cover

Good news is 95% people have hernias so .... I did and my insurance kicked in

I paid the difference gif the lapband 3700 and make $108 payments a month otherwise I rituals have to have paid 9900

Did you have to pay your Deductible? I am just nervous because my deductible is $5000 so it will still be too much to have it done through the Hiatal program

Did you have to pay your deductible before surgery? I'm starting the process with True Results and was told today that I would not have to pay my $3000 deductible. I'm having a hard time believing that. I have UHC also and will be doing the hernia program.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
