  1. Surgeon Decision

    Now that I'm a confirmed self-pay, I have a HUGE decision to make as to what doctor I go with. I continue to read the boards, blogs, and forums as well as googling every doctor I hear of. Hopefully I will find my right fit soon and proceed on to the next step.
  2. Last night I went to the orientation with the surgeon I chose. Afterwards I felt good about him, what he had to say and my decision to be sleeved.
     
    Today, I found out my insurance does not cover bariatric surgery. So, I guess I go to Plan B....self pay. Now on to research that.
