Topic: RE: Medicaid Questions/WLS Doctor Appts./Dr. Bellows
Hi my name is Sherri. I will be in Dr. Bellows office on Wed at 11 for a follow up appointment. I have finished all of my appointments I did all but two appointments at Tulane. Cardiologist and Psychology evaluation. I did those in my home town because I live 4 hours away from New Orleans. The Cardiologist at Tulane does take medicaid but the Psycologist does not and it cost 300 bucks to see their Psycologist, I found one close to my home that did accept medicaid and I didnt have to pay anything. If you have any questions please ask. There are several of us that are going to Dr. Bellows that are on Obesityhelp.com. Good luck on your journey it is a fun ride...Sherri

When you see Vanessa, she will give you a list of what doctors to see, and there phone numbers. They all accept medicaid!!!! You will use the doctors at Tulane to do all the stuff!!

Topic: Medicaid Questions/WLS Doctor Appts./Dr. Bellows
Hi Everyone,
I have my appointment with Dr. Bellows this week and I want to get all of my ducks in a row. Can any of you tell me which Doctors you used for the appointments that were needed to get approval. For example, Cardiologist, Therapist, Sleep Center, etc. I've heard that many doctors do not accept medicaid and I was hoping that maybe there is a list of this type of doctors that do accept medicaid that I will be able to make appointments with. I am so ready to get this ball rolling. I have been searching for a doctor that accepts Medicaid for WLS for 3 years now and am so excited that Dr. Bellows is accepting it.
Thank You

Topic: oh, no; this cannot be happening!!!
please pray that i get totally well this weekend; i went thursday to have my preop labs done and then my surgeon's office called friday morning to say that my white count was too high, meaning i have infection somewhere; oddly, my urine count was fairly good; so had to make a mad rush to see my local dr; he did a thorough exam and couldn't find anything alarming; he put me on a 3=day regimen of antibiotics and will repeat lab work monday evening; if white count is still elevated then, my surgery scheduled for tuesday will be cancelled....

Talked with her sister-in-law, said she was doing very well, had went through it with flying colors!! I am so glad, she was so nervous about this surgery. I am going to miss talking to her everyday. Please continue to keep her and her family in your prayers.
