MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SURGEONS LIST!

Hi Phyllis, I am dealing with some serious depression and I am doing my best to overcome it.  Not an easy feat.  Yes, I do plan to come to the Atlanta event and I have been trying to find out about FL, as I had heard rumor that there was one but unable to find it.  Bummer. The cost of the fills is the main reason most on medicaid choose the RNY surgery.    Hope you find a solution that works for you guys.  Until later... ~~~Pat~~~

Oh great! I look so forward to seeing you. There is talk at the Florida Board about them having one so I am jus****ching some there. I sent an email to OH since a place has not been picked for it to be closer to Atlantat International airport. Where they have it ...marta doesnt even go there. I could hop a plane here and be there in an hour. I learned so much from the conference so am excited to be going again. You are in my prayers with this demon of depression. Keep fighting. Phyllis

It has been said many times on this board, but I have to add my two cents.  Dr Duncans office is fantastic.  Dr Larry Hobson is the best... Bernadette

Thanks I have heard they are good at the peachtree bariatric

Yes your doctor does take medicaid . I'm going to Drs. Kent/Henderson in Brunswick and I'm on medicaid. Medicaid wants a cardiac and pulmonary clearance. I'm going to have to do a thalium stress test and a PFT to get that. They want a DOA with alcohol drawn to make sure you ain't on drugs or drunk. I believe there are 2 others that they want but it can be done through your blood. O a H-pylori...And you know everything that the surgeon wants ya' to do......Good luck to your daughter........

Thanks for responding. When I wrote that it was several months ago. I will check tomorrow when I go in for a fill to see if they cover lapband.

dr. micheal williams in alpharetta ga. accepts medicaid and is great

hiya all ... long time no see... im almost one year out  down from 270 - 165 feeling great and happier than i have ever been in my life.. now with that said .. lol  i just wanted to let all medicaid users know that before you go to dr duncan office in atlanta they are no longer taking WELLCARE .. so make sure you are on the right plan .. good luck and you will love dr hobson he is an angel ...
