Hi all!
This is my first post on OH but I've been lurking for quite some time 
I had my original consult with Dr. Pupkova at Barix Clinic in Langhorne PA on August 1 and had a lot of trouble finding a doc who would do my psych eval. Luckily someone pointed me in the direction of OH and I found Dr. Raines. He had everything finished in just a few weeks (and even participates with my insurance!). Once Vicki in the Insurance Dept at Barix had everything sent over to BCBS I had my approval in about 2 weeks (received the letter 11/24). I called this past Friday to check on the scheduling and worked with Eileen and she had me scheduled immediately. I go in for my Lap RNY on Dec 27 (following PATs on 12/12 ... my brothers birthday lol). I am super excited to have finally made it this far in the process and can't wait to bring in the New Year with the start of the New ME!

What a great way to start the new year... Sounds like things went pretty smoothly for you in spite of the psych eval deal. It's great that you've started posting - the support and friendship here is so helpful!! Wishing you all the best...
