how long did it take?

Those of you who had Aceves for your surgeon, how long did it take to get approved for the surgery after you submitted your history forms?

Thanks.

If I remember correctly, I received confirmation that I was approved within 48 hours. I submitted my application while Nina was on vacation & that is one reason it took a bit longer. They are always so quick to get back with you...usually less than a day.

Have you submitted your application yet?

Yes, I did on Friday. Have not heard anything yet.

Guess I'll email Nina.

Thanks.

Maybe I am remembering incorrectly. I don't know. I do remember being very anxious about getting an answer.

Since you sent it Friday, I bet you'll get an answer today or tomorrow. But I am sure Nina wouldn't mind you emailing to confirm that they received your forms.

You know you can call them. They are great about answering all your questions over the phone.

It seems to me that once I sent back my

email with all the questions, I called the next day and got my surgery date.

I filled out the form on Dr. Aceves web sight one night and called the next day and Nina told me I was approved. Then she gave me several dates to choose from for surgery and told me to call or e-mail the date back that I wanted. Then to e-mail her my flight info. Fast, friendly and kind service.
