NWWLS in Seattle, anyone?

Hi, has anyone has their sleeve done at NWWLS in Everett? I originally scheduled with them cause I was planning to self pay and they were cheaper than other places. Since my consultation on 12/21, we've been looking to see if insurance will cover it. Anyway, I haven't been having the best experience with them so far and was just wondering if anyone else had a good/bad experience? If insurance ends up covering it, I'm considering going somewhere else.

I originally had my lapband at NWWLS with Dr Michaelson. I had a good experience, he even waived his fee when my band slipped and had to have an emergency removal. He is the only doctor that I ever dealt with. You should do whatever you feel is right for you. If you're not getting the warm fuzzies with them then go elsewhere.

Thanks for the reply. Did you do a sleeve or anything once you had the band removed or just had it removed? If the former, did you go somewhere else for that?

Oh, never mind. I just saw where you said he was the only doctor you've dealt with. I definitely didn't get a bad vibe from him. I just feel that the office is lacking a little in the "customer service" department. Well, appreciate the reply. We'll see where I send up once all of the hoop jumping is complete.
