Aussie reconstructive surgery & medical insurance cover

[Shish44 0]

Hello,

Need some advice i am nearly at goal weight and will need what i hope will be classed as reconstructive surgery!:biggrin:

fingers crossed on that one but if any of you have any ideas let me know!

I believe Dr Coc kburn at the Wesley is a good surgeon....

My biggest question is through our company we can choose the insurance company...

Can anyone suggest the better insurer to go with?

Thanks for the help!

Cheers

Called Dr Coc kburns office on Wednesday they had a cancellaton for next Wednesday!

>>>>>>>omg<<<<<<<<

Lol fingers crossed... let the reconstuction begin!

So sweet... my eldest child (Mat 24yrs) has offered to pay for the surgery if i need it..

Keep getting emotional as it has taken me years to make this decision....fingers crossed it will be classed as reconstructive surgery!

Come on heat rash lol

Cheers

Dr Cockburn is fantastic he did my Tummy Tuck and removed skin from my legs (2 surgeries) one hint though, his name is pronounced CO Burn not COCKburn lol a mistake i made :-)

Dr Cockburn can help with your insurance questions, for me it was around 3 years ago so i can't really help with that one but i don't believe it is considered reconstructive because it is something you can live with but you usually get it removed for cosmetic purposes

hope this has helped

Lol yes i had a teacher with the same name......you can imagine in a girls school hehehe

I have other problems like back pain,rashes ans started getting infectons and mentaly well thats another story!

How did you go with legs? that one has me concerned.... but Dr Duncombe said Dr Coc.kburn is very good at what he does!

Thanks

omg i see Dr Duncombe 2, she is the one who referred me! The legs i am not entirely happy with because he does not lift the skin only tightens it around the leg....hope u know what i mean! anyway the recovery was harder with the legs as they are more prone to infection and i made the mistake of sitting down after having them done too quickly and it kills!
