OMG! I am devistated!

Does anyone have Orange Coast Memorial Medical in Fountain Valley for their surgery Dr's? I just got my surgery date today and they stated their 1st available surgery date isn't till 9/1/2010. THIS IS CRAZY! Not only will my authorization be expired by then, I have a feeling my insurance is going to be changing in July! Does anyone have any advise that could help me out? PLEASE!!!! :)

    I am not sure why they scheduled me so far out. They said it was the 1st available surgery opening and that was NOT with Dr LaPorte. But when I have my surgery in May, Dr LaPorte WILL be doing it. WEIRD HUH? BUT GOOD FOR ME! :thumbup:

    I am also going through Dr. LaPorte's office. Thanks for the heads up on the long wait. I am waiting for insurance approval and they will only approve me for Dr. LaPorte's office so I hope they work with me on Surgery dates as well!!!
