seems like its taking forever to get surgery scheduled
I did my last required appt on last Tuesday paperwork submitted and approved on Wednesday and was told it should take 5-7 days for surgery scheduling to call me and set everything up I haven't gotten a as call as of yet with is taking so long they should have called me already. I'm so anxious to get this set in stone and start the preop liver shrinking diet and get the surgery over with .uggghhh just needed to vent!

Just got my approval !
At Jenn yeah that's all I've done for the last month since I decided I wanted to do this. Pintrest, YouTube, here, on and on . I was told with my insurance it normally takes about two weeks, now if the surgery schedulers would only take that long I was hoping today was the day they would call, but no such luck! Hopefully tommorrow.

Just submitted yesterday and got the approval in the afternoon! Just waiting on the surgery scheduling dept to call with the date and pre-op appointments and surgery class . So sometime in the next month i'll be having surgery. glad to have this part all behind me and scared/ excited for the next phase!

How long was it between the time you started the process and actual surgery?
I went to seminar on the 30 of April, first Dr visit on the 5th of May, psych eval on the 12th of May, nutritionist appt was Tuesday, paperwork was submitted at 9 am yesterday morning and granted approval at 3pm yesterday afternoon. Just waiting on surgical department to call with surgical class and pre-op physical testing and surgery date and then I start my preop diet two shakes , one low fat dairy snack, and 3oz protein and half cup of vet for two weeks prior. So after all said and done will be approx a month and a half by the time I get the surgery done!

Go in for consult today!
Hi all ! Just thought I'd post to let you all know I go for consult today, I already have the NUT appt set which is 6/5/14, and I'm waiting on the Psych to call me back for my appt. Dr has already written letter of clearance so just have to have the other appts done and I'll get a date for surgery! I don't have any wait or diet that I have to follow, with the exception of the low carb for two weeks before to shrink the liver, and that doesn't include any liquid diet either! Is anyone out there in sleaveland have Dr. Brengman/Schroeder of advanced surgical partners in Richmond via Henrico Dr's hospital?

Hi, I'm new here!
Hi my name is Kelly I'm from va and my consult appt is may 5th, I have about 110 lbs to lose and am looking at having the vgs w/ds I'm hoping I don't have to do the six month diet thing I have humana gold plus HMO, does anyone else have this type of insurance and know about how long the process from consult to surgery date was ? I'm excited to embark on this journey , I want to do it for myself, and my 7 yr old son! I don't wanna miss out on his life due to being overweight!
