No luck with Fernback. Thanks for the input though.

Teresita,

I am seeing Dr. Moazzez too. Were you happy with him?

Anyone else have any other names?

I went to Dr. Vincenzio Holder Perkins at George Washington Univ. Hospital. I had to pay for the psych eval. My insurance did not cover and his fee was $150 His number is 202-741-2862

Want2lose, did you just ask me was I happy with Dr. Moazzezz....welllllll

Stocky and I oooooh yeah and Kehari can sing a little song ......or do a little dance.

I think you have to pay for the psych eval. Gunn4ya was cheaper. Mine was either 200 or 250

I have CareFirst BlueChoice and I was told they don't cover the psych evaluation. I had to pay out of pocket. That's good you were able to find someone for $150.

The doctor I saw was recommended by my surgeon. Her name is Dr. Nancy Freta and she's in Vienna. I won't go into how much it cost but it was more than $150. She was really nice though. :rolleyes:

Loving-It,

I see you were banded by Dr. Pinnar. Do you mind me asking how much he ran since he is out of network with Blue Choice.

Thanks!

I was totally covered by insurance. I had a referral from my physician. The total cost was $9,000, with $40 of it not being covered by insurance but paid by me as co-pay.

Thats great. Insurance never ceases to amaze me. Can I ask you one more personal question...I am looking for a new PCP on the blue cares network. We switched insurance to CF, BC in March, and my old PCP is not in their network. I would love to get the name of a PCP that is not anti band/WLS.

Thanks!
