Hi! I have omnia and wondering how the approval process was?? My drs office told me that they are easy and not to worry but of course, I do. They said omnia just wants to see nut and physic and they will write the letters showing that I did WW, gym , Atkins..... I still feel like I should provide that but they said they just need to write it on the paperwork I don't need to get the actually paperwork. They also said I don't need a letter of recommendation.

I have a surgery date of March 3rd and they don't submit until two /three weeks before ( I hate that).

Can you tell me if they required a lot of extra stuff, how long it took for approval etc??!!

Thanks for your help! How are you doing??? When did you get sleeved??

Thanks for helping me. I'm in ocean county Nj

I have omnia NJ and I'm having my surgery on the January 25th. My primary physician did sign the letter of recommendation and I had to complete a questionnaire detailing everything I have done in the past in order to lose weight, in addition to getting clearance from the numerous specialists. Everything else, my surgeon took care of.
