And i am glad i didn't stick with the first surgeon and center i was reffered to or i would have been seeing the surgeon for the first time now in september and lucky enough that i didn't have to do the 6 month powl program it isn't a requirement for my insurance thank God!

Yay congrats!!!! I'm so happy for you!! My dr. Just submitted my clinicals to insurance. They said I'd find out in 4 weeks maybe less... I'm so anxious for the letter/phone call!!!!! Eek!!
