    Thanks duckydoom.. You've been extremely helpful. I really need to look in detail to what type of insurance I have because I'm not even sure.. If its a PPO or ***. I hate sounding so ignorant! :/ I just know I have my insurance through my company and when I was looking into the policy I found a section regarding bariactic surgery and it said that it DID cover it. Have my fingers crossing and hoping I can get it done soon.

    Kaiser Permanente (Md/dc/va) Approval

    I also have Kaiser and I'm looking into getting the lap band. I just might have to change my PCP because she doesn't seem like she's going to be on board with my choice. Would you please share your experience and maybe some tips you can pass along to me?!

    Will My Doctor Refer Me For Lap-Band?

    I'm in the same boat! :/ My doctor is a super thin Asian lady that obviously has never had a weight issue ever in her life. She thinks it's just so easy to just eat right and exercise everyday. After 30 years of making all the wrong food choices and building bad habbits, it's extremely difficult. I want to get the lap band, but I'm going to have to get a different doctor!

    Umm I don't think I have state insurance. I have Kaiser through the company I work for.. And yes, in Cali. What kind of insurance do you have Teresa?

    I have Kaiser Permanente. I checked my policy and it said that it doesn't cover it. Do I just go to my doctor and say I want this done?
