  1. Hi! Has anyone done the DS without redoing the sleeve? What are the pros and cons?
  2. Hi Everyone, I had a vsg back in 2016, I’ve had regain and want to have a revision. Of course insurance won’t cover unless I have gerd or other issues. I did my surgery with GHI/Emblem Health. If I switched insurance to Aetna or another insurance would I get approved because I didn’t do the 1st surgery with them? I’m hoping someone can help me with this question ?

  5. Hi, I’m interested in getting a revision. How long is the wait for approval? Will it be the same process (6 months)? I have emblem health/ghi. I’m in NYC.

  17. I did my psych evaluation yesterday. All I have left is 1 more doc visit next month ( ghi requires 7 consecutive visits) then everything gets submitted. I will do my pre op testing the end of November . Doctor Gorecki asked which date in December I wanted to do the surgery, did he ask you? I think he asks so they can know for insurance purposes.

  25. Thanks for responding . I'm planning to have surgery with him in December. Is your weight loss steady? How much have you lost? How many days did u have to stay in the hospital?
