I've started a group called Tampa VSG if anyone is interested in joining. Good luck on your WLS!
I am currently in the process of being approved for Gastric Sleeve however, I am having difficulties getting a letter of medical necessity and referral to see my bariatric surgeon. My requirements for my pcp were medication list, diet fails and psych eval...I completed all. They denied my request for a referral.
I need help finding a new doctor please help! This is my last step before submittal.
Well HI Everyone. I'm still Living. But now putting up with my Panni. Just found out after two month pursuit to have my hanging belly removed that I was denied through Humana here in Tampa Bay. My Appeal Process starts tomorrow as I'm researching today. Oh I've reached the 400 mark, down now 450 lbs.
Apparently I have two OH Profiles (wish there was a simple way to combine them. Mike33756 & Mike-Eak
My life is much better now though would be even better without the Panni. I drive buses for Eckerd College P/T but would become F/T once my belly is removed making it easier to get around.

Dr Brett Cohen in Hollywood Florida accepts Medicaid share of cost, I have an apt n may 2015. 954-276-8559 ask for Armand Benton
Hi Natasha I am going through Dr. Brett Cohen in Ft. Lauderdale Florida 954-276-8559 ask for Armond Benton. You do have to meet the $700 share of cost before you have surgery and after that it's like you have straight Medicaid. I have an apt in May to meet the surgeon and the nutritionist. I've done everything else and I live in Orlando
