    AHCCCS (Medicaid) in Arizona?

    ahcccs will cover your surgery but it all comes down to what plan you are on and if that doc is contracted w/ ur insurance plan. i had went through 3 diff docs and the 1st one i gave up on them, because they would never help me on anything or get back to me. the 2nd docs was good was gonna get the bypass done went through it all just had to meet w/ the surgeons and tryin to do the auth and then all of a sudden they were no longr contracted w/ my ins, so thankfully my pcp office is great and found dr. simpson for me and of couse it was totally not what i had in mind at first but thankfully it was a blessing in disguese. u jus have to stay on top of ur ins and make sure they are contracted w/ them all the way. best of luck to you on ur journey.. i know for me its one i do not regreat one bit.
  2. hi ladies my name is shannon and i got baned by dr. simpson on the 26th of oct. 2010, i was one of his 1st pts that morning. since having this done i had to go a few days after surgery to get adjusted i was in alot of pain and nothing was really going down. so after that day i was feeling fine and by monday i had developed a sever cold and air bubbles that were killing me. So i emailed dr.simpson to find out what the heck was goin on because i was developing the same symptoms again and he kinda chewed me out sayin im not following the rules wich i was cuz im tooo afraid to eat anything right now cuz i dont wanna fail at it. but he later appoligiezed to me and said he jus wants to make sure im doin what im supposed to do, so i go back for a 2nd ajustment and come to find out i had some air n my band. but i still have air pockets that r gettin bad and if i get to many of them in a row they cause me to throw up. he says they should go away soon, boy i sure hope so cuz its pain i never wanna feel again thats how bad they hurt. have you ladies had them? and if so what did you do to stop them, i get them when i talk, walk or sleep jus couries as to how i can make them stop. i go thursday for my intetial appointment w/ him sooo we will see. thank you for your help need all the support i can get.
