Heyl Bryan, You can try the Minimally Invasive Surgical Institue in Baton Rouge near the Lady of the Lake Hospital. My friend had surgery performed by Dr. LeBlanc there and he was great. Because of my insurance, my surgery was done in New Orleans at Ochsner with Dr. Kennedy. You can go to www.misila.org or call 225 769-5028. Good Luck.. Dee

Your psyche test is to see if you have any type of eating disorder, that would hinder the surgery, and if you are capable of undergoing a major behavioral modification. Such as complying with a long term lifestyle change. Everyone has to take this. It is routine. Good luck to you and your wife.

Why do I have to have a Psych Evaluation? The most common reason is your insurance company requires it. The psychologist will evaluate your understanding and knowledge of the surgery, your ability to follow the basic recovery plan, and your ability to commit to the permanent lifestyle changes necessary for success.
