I guess I don't understand why your Psych consult is a month after your meeting with the the nurse and dietician. My doctor's office did the Nurse Practioner, Dietician, and Psych Eval. the same day. My insurance approved my surgery within 2 weeks of that meeting. You may want to check around and see if you can find an office that is faster. The first seminar I went to I was told I could'nt get in for a meeting for 2 months. I went to another hospital and got a consult 2 weeks later. Admittedly I live in the Boston area and we do not suffer from a lack of top medical providers.

Wow! That is fast

If I had'nt had a blood clot to deal with I could have had my surgery 2 1/2 months from the time of my first consult. I am keeping my fingers crossed that my surgery will happen 8/12 waiting for some feedback from the neurologist about the bloodclot treatment.
