My 6month journey of insurance pre op- 6months with my physician and dietician is now over......well as of December 2012, THEN I found out that my insurance DID approve me for surgery, YEAH!! So wonderful Christmas present to me!!! Now the BAD news.......my surgeon, who used to work for the hospital that I work for, left last yr to work for our rival hospital....ok, he started the lap band surgery AT my hospital and had worked here doing that for almost 10yrs...ok, stay with me, dont fall asleep.....now, since he left and is doing the sleeve and lap band at this rival hospital, he has to be recertified to do the sleeve at MY hospital before they will let him do my surgery....whew....ok, stay with me, please....SO, today is um, Jan 20, still not hearing anything about him being approved, and he has done around 30sleeves at his new hospital.....Now dear readers, Im sure your saying to yourself, well then why dont you have surgery at HIS hospital, no no no, THAT would be too easy...and also a big fat NO, since I my insurance through my job, (this hospital) states that I can only have my surgery done at MY hospital.....so seeeeeee, Im starting to wonder if Im ever gonna get this done.......WHERE are my oreos???!!!!
