Can i vent for a minute...

So Monday October 28 was my 6 month supervised diet and my last. So Wednesday i decided to call the surgeon office to see if they receive the documents and they said "no". I called my pcp office and they said everything was set so now im going back and forth. I was so upset that i started giving them a piece of my mind. The lady at my pcp office even gave me her personal number because it's hard to get a hold of someone in that office. So a week went by and nothing was resolved.

Wow! I'm sorry to hear that!! At least the one lady seems genuinely wanting to help you get it solved but that's so frustrating!

I hope it's resolved soon, good luck and keep us posted!

I was back and forth as well for awhile. Stay on top dont give up.

going back and forth.

so infuriating!!!!! :angry:

many, many, many (me too) have/had stupid insurance "issues"

that being said...........it doesn't help your situation - just to say you are not alone

be persistent

everyone, eventually does get the paper work settled!!!!

hopefully approval/blessing :unsure: in near future

squeeky wheel et al, but...............i always found you catch more flies with honey............

good luck

Oh I hate when stuff like this happens!!! Hope you get the call next week!

This must happened always, because I am in my fourth month and just found out none of my management sheets were fax over , today they were finally fax over and I have two more months to go. I agree with the above statement stay on them because I see now this is common practice. Good luck.

Thanks cup cake. It's just so annoying waiting on them to work, when all they have to do is fax some papers over.

When I started pre op my doctor was the member of one doctor group at my 6 month mark she changes and my 6 months of weigh ins don't count! Had to start over another 6 months! Fast forward I got it done had the surgery in May and I am down 106 as of today. I have 1 more pound to go to be under 200. I haven't been there in 20 years. So hang in there you will be happy with the results.

I was lucky found great doctors and the surgeon had everybody in house! Weight loss, psych, nutrition, exercise it was great and well worth it. He was a center of excellence.
