Hello....I am new to this group and I was wondering if doctor Butler performed your surgery...if so were there any complications and how was his bedside manner....I didn't find anything when I researched him...and it really would help if I can get feedback from someone who has dealt with... Thanks a lot for your time!

Hi, do you know if anyone accepting patients with Medicaid to have a panniculectomy done

I need a psychologist that will accept la Medicaid and United health care, I have dr O'Connell and I am about to go to my 6th visit, I already did the nutrition and I have lost about 30-37 pounds. All I need is the psych eval

Starting July 1, University Medical Center will open the only clinic in state for weight loss surgery for medicaid patients.

The program at UMC can also advocate for people who have private insurance that won't pay for the surgery..
