  1. Going for the Consult!!

    kris102007 posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    Okay so I am going for my first consult on Feb. 5th. It was suppose to be today but the doctor had emergency surgery so I got bumped. I am pretty bummed as I believe that I have made up my mind and I am ready to do this. I am so afriad that I am going to loose my courage soon if I do not get this process started. So from initial consult until actual day of surgery what is the normal waiting time frame. I have already talked with my insurance company and they cover the surgery 100%. So I do not think I should have any insurance hang ups. Anyone who could tell me what to expect from day one and on I would really appriciate it. I am just ready to start a whole new healthy life.
