  1. Hello my name is Shannon! I'm in the beginning process of vsg surgery at highland hospital and I have Excellus! I've been looking so hard to find someone with Excellus because I have so many questions! Like about how long the process was from first seminar to surgery, how long it took to get accepted, how long you had to be a nutritionist assisted diet etc. Would it be possible if we could email or fb message or talk on here somehow? I won't take too much of your time and it will seriously mean the world to me!!
  2. Hi! I'm planning on getting my surgery from Highland as well! Jamie I suggest you go to a monarch meeting, they're free and are for post and pre op patients, I'll be attending my first meeting on July 8th
  3. @Idonails74@Idonails74 I live in Rochester NY! Where did you get yours done, how long did the process take from the seminar to surgery date? I have excellus BCBS and I've heard that it can take up to 2 years to be approved.

  5. @bubbly_d@bubbly_d Hello! I live in Rochester, NY and I'm planning on surgery with omalley too! I was wondering how long it took you from the seminar to the Surgery date? I've been told that with excellus BCBS it can take up to two years, that's really discouraging to me!
