Indiana Anyone?

I too am going to Dr Evanson at St Vincent's in Carmel. I did the psych eval with Dr Stote and found out that day I was recommended without any other hoops from him. I did find out I had to do a 6 month diet so I am anxiously doing that with my family doctor.

I just want the time to go by quickly so I can get this done and over with.

Dr. Evanson rocks! Just remember when you go for your PcP for your weight in's. To keep everything weight loss related. If you take to him about being sick or whatever than insurance won't count that month!!

He seems like a great doctor. I mostly met with his PA when I was down there. I actually am not taking any chances with my visits I am seeing two doctors just to cover all my bases and my butt. I finally have coverage for surgery and it will be done. I'm tired of being severely overweight

If you don't mind me asking.. What insurance do you have?

I have two insurances, the first is Anthem BCBS (they don't cover squat) I also have the Indiana Medicaid (since I'm off in the summers I qualify).

I got the phone call from Hancock Regional saying my testing is for the 26th which is next Thursday. What can I expect they said I have a bunch of tests then I have to meet with a doctor in the afternoon. I don't really know why I have to meet one of their doctors so can anyone explain this to me? Will he decide if I have surgery and give me a date or will I need to still go back to the bariatric center for that?

Small world, lol. My testing is the 26th too. Different facility I believe tho so I'm afraid I'm no help on your question. I won't even be seeing the doc that day.

I won't see my surgeon again until surgery day. If I didn't work a friggin day today I could have called them back and got my date today, but by the time I got the message they were closed I work all morning monday, till 3, so I'll have to rush home (30 min trip) and try to catch them before they close on Monday and hopefully I will get a date then.

I am majorly impatient but am gonna try to wait to see when they call me. I will keep my fingers crossed for ya and will hope for both of us to hear soon. Do you have to do the class b4 surgery too?

Yup. I was actually calling to get my class date. I was told it'd prob be Monday before I got a surgery date but figure they prob only do the classes 2-3 times a month and they schedule them so its not like they find an opening persay like with the surgery. Either there is a class scheduled that hasn't been filled or there isn't. So, I was calling about the class. When they called me back they mentioned the surgery date on the message (not the actual date but just that they were calling to schedule a surgery date). I wonder if classes are surgeon specific like the orientations were??
