Hello, I'm trying to get started on how do I go about getting this surgery started? Do I make appointment with my doctor and tell her I want this done? I've been over weight most of my life and I can't seem to lose the weight but gain it. I'm sick of being heavy and having medical problems. I'll be 50 soon and I want to be healthy and live not fat with heath problems. I'm 5'5 and around 238 lbs. I have Medicare part A and B and Tricare for insurance. I'm so lost and scared that my doctor will say no for some reason. Help!
I did not go through my primary care physician, since she is not a supporter of WLS. I discussed with my insurance company and did the research on doctors in my area. Six months later, I’ve been approved and I’m scheduled for my pre-op Feb 8th!
I hope this helps!
