I started with Dr. Szomstein in April and am anxiously awaiting approval from AETNA HMO for the surgery. I have the date and don't forsee any problems as I am 150 lbs overweight, have Type II Diabetes and Obstructive Sleep Apnea
My date is August 1st too!!! I'll be starting my new life with Dr. Hamad at MaGee's Womans Hospital and counting the days. Best of Luck to you! Jane Tell
