    I had mine done through medical (anthem blue Cross). I didn't get to choose my original surgeon, he was the closest (56 miles!) that took our ins. I switched surgeons because my original had a ridiculously high lifestyle maintenance fee and was far enough away that we would never use the services.

    My home town was San Jose, so when I found a Dr in that area that took medical, had a good rep and worked with a good hospital we switched. It took a year to get the prerequisites and 6 months for approval.
