Well, my name is Ronda and I have decided to try and have the lapband surgery here in Springfield, MO with Dr. Edwards from St. John's. I went to the seminar in Feb. 08 and started the process. I finished the last requirement with them this last monday and now my paperwork has been submitted to my insurance company and I am just waiting to find out if I am going to be able to go through with the lapband procedure.

 

I am very excited about this process and have really enjoyed everything that Dr. Edwards office requires you to do to be compliant with the changes you have to make in your lifestyle to be successful after surgery. His staff are great to work with also.

 

I will let you all know if I am successful with the insurance company!
