Hello, I am one Nutritional appointment away from my surgery. I have been going to Dr. Speigal. Even though I have met him only once, His nutritionist is so AWESOME, down to earth and most of all understanding. She is a very helpful resource. I am praying that AETNA approves my surgery. I am so ready for the new me from inside out. They say that it takes about a week for the insurance companies to make a decision so prayerfully I will hear something around jan 28th and with his office your surgery is scheduled within the next week. ]
For most of you all how long did it take for your insurance to approve it then how long did it take your doctor to schedule your surgery date.
