I'm so confused as where I should go. I have no idea which Dr.s are in my network or not. I tried to look on BC/BS FEP web site and can't find none. I have a seminar on Sat at NE Baptist but I haven't seen anyone here use them and it worries me. Someone help please, lol.

So far I have heard of True Results, NIX, and I have a seminar this Sat. at NE Baptist with Dr. Patel and Dr. Cavazos. I hope someone can lead me with their experience in the right direction.

TIA

I have BCBS of IL and will be using Dr. Carcamo at the Nix. Several of my friends have used Dr. Wright with no complaints. Hope this helps.

I had the surgery on 12/31/07 by Dr. Wright at the NIX Hospital. The staff in the office is very good. They have all of the insurance information at hand and can answer all of your questions. Try one of the seminars at the NIX with the South Texas Surgeons. Both of them are very good and I believe they really care.

i used dr. patel at innova hospital

i was banded 12-26-07

his staff leaves a lot to be desired but my results are going well.

3 weeks out and 17 lbs down, this is without any fills too!

and i used bcbs whom i am told is the easiest insurance to get approval from

mine took less than a day is what the staff said.

I just sent you an email . The best thing to do to see which doc is in your network is to call your insurance and see which names they give you .

You will probably have to call them , Lap Band docs most likely will not be on their websites under Baratric surgeons , So calling is probably your best bet ?

Or if you calling docs in the area and asking them if they take your insurance.

I use Dr. Duperior here in SA. He is with New Dimensions. They do most of their surgeries at a brand new hosp called Foundation Bariatric Hospital on Heubner. Their staff is specially trained to work with bariatric patients. Look up ND website and attend a seminar. They will check on your insurance for you. Good luck
