YOU CANT PLEASE EVERYONE.
I'm in the process of trying to get insurance approval for WLS and when I first started this journey I chose Dr. Knighbert and Dr. Steiner and I still feel like they are trully qualified surgeons very dedicated and professional. I decided to change surgeons, but that was a personal choice.. Had nothing to do with the surgeons . I work in the medical field.and I know you cant please everyone all the time , and those of us that have researched this surgery know and understand the risk. and regardless of how good the surgeon might be somethings are out of their hands.. And I dont mean any disrespect to the families that have lost loved ones. I understand that they are in pain and are looking for someone to blame, but speaking from my heart and experience I know and understand all the risk I am taking if I get approval . and I have spoke with my family and made sure that if something terrible happens to me not to blame the surgeon because I'm confident in my surgeons and I believe they will do everything possible to do the best for me.. I also think the same is true for Dr.Knigbert and Dr. Steiner.
