I'm from ky, new to this and not really knowing where to begin this "idea". Anyone have any recommendations of surgeons and locations? I'm needing somthing done soon if not the surgery but it's so difficult, as many of you know. This surgery is not easy as well I know. I have Medicaid and I am praying it will cover this. Will it? Also, do I go to one of these locations or is it easier to go to family doc and get referred? Thank you

Hey! I would recommend going to bluegrass Bariatrics in Lexington. It's where I'm currently going and they are fantastic! Medicaid will cover it completely, at least mine does. But you will however still have to go to your family doctor. My insurance requires 6 months(non consecutive within the last 18 months) of you visiting with your family dr. And being on a "diet plan". Every insurance is different but that's how mine works. I did a lot of research about where to go in KY. They are a few other places you can go too but I honestly didn't hear good things about them :/ idk how close you are to lex. But I def. recommend it!
