Oh my...have you thought possibly about Dr Joel Sebastien in Daytona Beach? I am almost 3 weeks out from a Roux-En-Y and I only have 5 (less than 1 inch) incisions from laproscopic surgery...and he is absolutely awesome! I am not sure about the insurance though...but I would definitely reseach more and find someone to do it laproscopically! (My weight at surgery was 310...now I am almost 40lbs down after only 3 weeks...my MD and NUT say this is mainly due to being able to get up and walk so quickly)
