Frustrated Bailey Bariatric

I have been waiting for over a week for Dr V nurse to call me to set up my surgery! My navigator was so good to help me through the program fast so I could get my surgery before our vacation. I really zen they are busy but Wednesday I was told there was 3 people ahead of me and she would call me this week. How much you bet I don’t get a call tomorrow either!!! I’m about ready to call this all off. FRUSTRATED!! Anyone else take this long to get a surgery date???

This statement concerns me. Scheduling delays happen. They're part of life. While I understand they're frustrating...treating your surgery this disposably in the face of what amounts to a minor inconvenience gives me some pause for concern.

No criticism meant. Could you possibly be looking for an excuse to back out?

I definitely am not looking for an excuse to back out. Just frustrated that I keep getting a different answer every time I call. I understand scheduling delays happen but how many times it’s happening is what concerns me. My insurance has called me twice to get my surgery date and I keep telling them it’s not scheduled yet. Just concerned.
@acrowder61 I'm rewriting the old mid30s hit
Why won't you answer my questions, dear Bailey
I'm wearing my fingers to a pulp.
You would not give me answers or a knowledge my calls
I think you're doing me wrong.
Remember you said this was quick and easy
And it wouldn't take too long.
Remember I've got a vacation coming
You want me to stand in line.
If I have a heart attack from frustration
It will be on your head.
So give me a date, I really don't want to wait.
There's no rythmn or rhyme
Why you won't give me a time
Dang you Bailey Bariatrics, you're doing me wrong!
Not the world's greatest poetry but I do work cheap!??
