Dr.Schoen??????????

ok im military and i keep getting told that the wait to have surgery in denver is longer than the wait here which is about 6-9month wait. does anyone have the phone number to Dr. Schoen's office so i can call and find out what the waiting list is there cause i keep hearing different stories, and i guess you could say im just really tired of waiting and all i did all the hoop jumping for the army and now i have to wait they try to scare you from going to denver saying its a longer wait there....but ive been told that if i have my phy****val and i pay for the nutrion class thats 5hrs that could only take one to two months in denver....anyway i was just wondering if anyone has dr schoens number so i can call and find out for myself thanks heather

Heather, E-mail me at work tomorrow ([email protected]) before 1500 and I will give you the number to Dr Schoen's assistant, Christine Jameson.Your best bet is to e-mail her after you received your auth # from Tricare to schedule your inital consultation. Her e-mail is [email protected]. I called 8 Sept, saw Dr. Schoen on 21 Sept, and am scheduled for surgery on 18 Oct. My psych eval was completed prior to my appt and was paid for by Tricare after I self referred through Merit Behaviorhal Health. I am scheduled for the mandatory nutrition class, which is an out of pocket expense of $200, that is 4.5 hours long this Sunday. The nutrition class is held every other Sunday and I have been told it is well worth the money. Good luck and take care, Tosh, RN
