    program fee

    exactly how I was thinking. I really like the staff and would feel terrible if I liked dr 2 better since dr 1 helped me get approved

    program fee

    when I FINALLY got approval I called to schedule the surgery. The nurse said "oh the hospital has us on a hiatus from doing plication" it scares me because I had to go thru hell to get the approval, my insurance pays for one a lifetime so I must get the most for my buck. The competition here in town is a center of excellance bariatrics and they charge NO program fee. the program fee here is $500.

  14. Im addicted to this site

  15. Ive been so excited about my new journey date approaching (march 22) . Ive had 2 goals for quite a long time. 1. I do not want to be fat at my sons graduation (dec 2013) and I want to be fab at 50. (LOL) I will be banded March 22, that's 4 days after my 49 birthday. I must admit Im excited and scared. The excitement of course is self explaining. Scared because I am reading so much about how people crash emotionally post op. Please, I like my doctor and his staff but I haven't really been explained much. Please everyone share your experience and knowledge with me. Thanks in advance!! This site is GREAT !!!
