Hi everyone! My name is Anne and I am from the Chicagoland area. I just called today and setup for my first appointment at the wellness institute out of Northwestern Memorial in the city! I am so excited, if anyone has any advice for me to take along with me to my visit on Thursday that would be great :crying: Also..does anyone on here have BC/BS PPO ICHIPS Plan?? If so how was your experience with them?? Thanks everyone!!:thumbup:

Welcome Anne--many of your questions will likely be answered by just cruising through several threads, and there is a FAQ section----that is full of band info. I was thrilled with the seminar I went to pre surgery---it was loaded with good information!

Can't help with your particular insurance, just wanted to say welcome, and good luck as you proceed towards banding-----it is not always easy jumping through the hoops, and doing all the appointments----but in the end it IS all worth it!!!

Hi I'm so nervous and excited at the same time... So many questions and don't know if anyone can help that much I think you have to experience it first hand.... Good Luck on your journey... So far it has been long they make you jump through a lot of hoops, but it is worth it I hope.... Keep Posting and again Good Luck
