Approved in Leesburg,VA...Wow!!!

Hi Everyone,

I've been reading threads for the last month not really believing my insurance would approve me for surgery. I just snuck by with a bmi of 35.:)

Anyway, I am so excited to be approved and get started on my weight loss journey. For those of you out there that think there's no way your insurance will approve you, you may be wrong. It doesn't hurt to try. I also think it helps to have a surgery staff pulling for you which I think Dr. R. Pinnars office did.

Congrats to you! What insurance do you have? I start this process tomorrow by going to the seminar and making my consultation appointment. Best of luck to you!
