Dr. VEMULAPALLI is the best bariatric surgeon at montefiore. I had gastric bypass with her on Aug.21 2012 and no complications at all. While recovering from surgery i seen alot of Dr. Choi and Dr. Camacho patients come in with lots of complications. Not to scare you but i would do research on each surgeon. My cousin also had surgey with Vemulapalli without any complicqtions after.

We all gonna be going through that sooner or later. I know when that happens im going straight to Goodwill. There is one in downtown brooklyn that has great gently used clothes.

Try taking Biotin 5000mcg once a day, i had the same problem before surgery. My hair was so thin you could see my scalp, now its getting really thick.

Had surgery at 3:18 pm yesterday. I'm not in much pain, just mainly gas pain. Surgeon says everything came out perfect no complications. I'm doing great for now. Thanks for all your support.

Everything went well yesterday . I got approved at the last minute. Surgery went picture perfect says my Dr., I don't have much pain. Just gas. Thanks for all the support.

No, my insurance is affinity health care.

Omg. I just got a call from the coordinator they lost my medical clearance letter and the insurance is asking for it. What else can go wrong..

My surgery is tomorrow and my insurance says that authorization is still pending. I haven't had anything solid to eat since last week. Dr. Wants me to take citroma to cleanse my bowels, does this make sense? What if I'm not approved. I think the hospital should have been sent in my forms for approval. So frustrated.

I signed consent today for rny and my insurance received all my documents again. I called them and they say it will take up to 72hrs to find out if I'm approved. I have surgery date on 8/21. My doctor seems to think I will get approved I'm not so sure. Sweating bullets!!!

I feel u, the gas pain is horrible after any surgery. I'm going to stock up on gas x.

The coordinator says I can keep my surgery date 8/21 I have to sign consent for the rny tomorrow and she will fax it to the insurance. I just hope the insurance don't come up with something else.

I jumped through all the hoops that my insurance (Affinity) required, the same day that the coordinator sent in my documents I was denied. Denied because after all that I did they do not cover gastric sleeve. So now I have a choice says my surgeon either do the band or roux en y which my insurance do cover. I don’t know what to do.

Hey I'm getting sleeved at Montefiore on 8/21 by Dr. Vemulapalli. Good luck to all.
