I am looking into going to Springfield, MO. I haven't talked to anyone yet.

What is the steps i need to take and do i have to sign up for anything to go to the seminar.

Well what exactly have you done so far?

Have you found out if your Ins. will pay?

Can you self pay if you have to?

If you're talking about the seminar that was supposed to be last night at St. johns it was the wrong date. I went last night no one from St Johns showed. My wife called today and said it is next Wednesday evening same time.

I would look for a seminar nearby and call the surgeon that sponsors it and ask if you need to register in advance.

Then I would call my ins. co and ask them if WLS is a covered procedure and what their requirements are.

I saw that there would be a seminar March 26th, at 6 pm.

I will be private pay.

Hello! Is anyone going to the Seminar, Wednesday night, March 26th, in

Springfield, Mo. And has anyone paid out of pocket. I would like to know

about how much it's gonna cost.

Check out the the lapband support groups and then the local support groups and up under missouri. I know there are many people from Springfield, MO that post there.

i called about the seminar and they are booked for this one. so i'm down for the April 21st seminar. i was so excited to get this going, i'm not very patent to wait for things. when i'm ready, i'm ready. Also, i will be private pay, do they have a payment plan or do we find our own financing else where. i have been to a seminar before with my mom, she has the by-pass. but they said i would need to come to Dr. Edwards. There is a seminar in Branson on the 5th of April. And after the seminar what are the other steps and how long til i could have the lap-band.
