My surgeon's office submitted my documentation to UHC on Tuesday. I'm not the most patient person when it comes to waiting. Should I call UHC to follow-up? I'm afraid that I will bug them and they'll say no because I've called. I know I'm being a spaz!

Thank you everyone for your kind words! I'm still waiting on insurance approval but I am trying for December 28.

I see everyone's successes and it feels like an infommercial. I'm expecting to see the fine print that says results may vary! I'm just scared that it will be like all other diets that I've tried an failed at. I search for the negative posts but I really haven't see any. I'm just looking for some reassurance that I'm doing the right thing. My gut tells me that I am. Is this normal to have doubts?

Longer-life - I have uhc ppo. So who knows? I fell below being morbidly obese in 2007 by 7 lbs. I'm worried about the 5 year history. Likasulema- I know what u mean by just going with the first and wanting just to get it over with ( even though u know it's not best)

Thank u for all the info! I'm getting a little frustrated with the insurance coordinator (maybe the one u referred to). I had to talk to her boss Joan. I feel like they're not on my side but on the insurance side. I'm trying to get it done before the end of this year. Did u have your class in Orlando or st Augustine ? Was that the only other requirement? I'm just so anxious!

Anyone have their surgery by him? How was your experience?

Anyone a patient? I'm waiting for insurance approval and would love to hear your experiences

The psychologist that I went and saw wrote a summary to my surgeon about my visit. I had to take this MMP1 (something like that) 500 question true false exam. I marked true on a lot of questions such as I have low self esteem. This is due to my weight but you can't explain that. Now the letter is summarized with "I recommend bariatric surgery with reservation" and that he recommend that I see a psychologist. Do you think this will make me exempt from UHC's requirements?
