I have just signed up for this insurance plan. Does anyone have it, was surgery covered?

Hello all, I am considering using Dr. Merola and his team. Has anyone used him? Can anyone give me some advice?

Hi all, I made the decision today that I need to change. I am getting insurance soon. It should start on Dec.1. How long should I wait before I start the banding process? Also do all doctors have the same pre op tests? If anyone could reccomend someone on long island that could help me and not make me go to 50 appointments before surgery I would appreciate it. I know there is a need for a lot of the visits, esp the psych and nutritionist, but i don't see how 3 cardiology appointments will help. Thanx for any info.
