I am approved!!!
Dr. Mattar's secretary emailed me and told me that how the process works from here on out is that I go to my scheduled preop testing on Feb. 26th and approx. 1 week after that they will call me with my preop nut class date (always on a Tuesday, and approx. 2 weeks before surgery) and a surgery date. So, I won't have a date until at least the first of March.
