I'm from Lyndhurst, I am also a Dr. Schrope patient. I agree,Meredith and the entire staff are fantastic. I was in Valley for my endoscopy yesterday and if that was any indication of the care at Valley, we are in good hands.

Awesome!! HOw far in advance did you schedule your surgery before getting your approval?

My 1st apt with the dr was on 9/12. Met with nut and psych on 9/18. Scheduled that day for surgery for 10/16 but was considered temporary till Julie heard back. Had 1st apt w/ gastro on 9/20 and endo set for 9/28. Preop apt on 10/9. Jyst flying through the process. My friend has same insurance so I already knew through her what I would need and that insurance covers surgery 100%.

Is your surgery Oct or Nov 15 NJGirl22? It would be great if we can get together and talk!!! We shoudl set up some time and a place in the middle for anyone that wants to get together.

I'm from linden, nj.

Ms.mcbride, I am jealous at how fast and easy your insurance process was. Glad you got a quick approval and date is set.

I hope to hear from Julie any day now to let me know the papers went in to Aetna. Gio said Friday they should be in this week and we should expect to hear by two weeks. They wouldn't set a date though, just a target of late October- early Nov.
