Topic: RE: HealthNet HMO Southern CA - consultation?

Thanks for your reply! I've heard only good things about him. Thankfully my insurance doesn't require any classes and I've already had any tests they could possibly want. I'm trying to be patient but it just feels like they are slacking on purpose at this point, you know? I'm worried it's because I am going for the VSG and they only cover it if you can't have RNY for some reason.

The State has an agency that can assist with issues and concerns regarding insurance companies. Here is the link:

I have Facey through Anthem BlueCross and I had to attend 6 months of classes, and many tests, etc. but after 11 months I finally saw Dr.Quillici and two weeks later had surgery. Be patient; you'll get there. Dr. Q. was great.

Topic: RE: San Diego Peeps.

Hi! I am in Oceanside and hoping to have RNY in about 2 1/2 weeks, if all goes well for some other test I have to have prior to surgery (long story). Anyway, I would love to have someone or someones to have as my losing friends. It's crazy, I recently moved here from out of state and it sure seems like I'm the largest woman around!
