  1. I heard that Dr. Gorecki was pretty awesome. How long did you have to wait to be approved for surgery? I have NYS Medicaid/Amerigroup so I was wondering how long would the process be.
  2. Have anyone in NYC who has Medicaid/Amerigroup had wls? If so please let me know your experience. Thank you!
  3. So I'm admitted to the hospital due to pneumonia and was informed by the attending doctor that he recommends (and is referring) me to have weight loss surgery. Ironically, the night before I was informed, I had look up bariatric surgeons in Brooklyn who accepted Medicaid/Amerigroup. I have asthma, prehypertension, chronic back pain, and the list goes on. I found a doctor, Dr Piotr Gorecki, he has an office in Park Slope and accepts my insurance. I wanted to know I anyone else has had their surgery approved with Medicaid and how long was the wait?
  4. Yeah it really shouldn't be a super huge difference. I'm just hoping to have my surgery done before November. Best of luck to you. Please keep my posted!
  5. Wow! That's awesome! I live in Brooklyn as well. I am in the very beginning of my process. I have a consultation appt on August 6th with Dr. Gorecki. I have NYS Medicaid/Amerigroup so I'm wondering how long it will be before I'm approved. I know there is a process required by the insurance company, I'm just praying.
