Hi. I have an appointment with Dr. O'Connell on 1/25/2018. Was he at any point a difficult doctor to deal with? How was his bedside manner?
Thank you for that info because my weight starting to effect my health.
I just spoke with a member that called Dr. O'Connell's office and spoke with Monika. She has an appointment next week and was told she does not have to start the 6 months over. Fingers crossed this works for you all

Hello,
I wish I could type this in pencil as we all know this can change at any moment, but for now here is the update.
If you were working with Dr. Selim's office for WLS per Latasha they are no longer accepting any Medicaid patients. I called Dr. Ruary O'Connell's office and spoke with Monika Bowman and she confirmed Dr. O'Connell takes the following medicaid insurance.
United Healthcare
LA Healthcare
Amerihealth Capis
Monika said to give her a call and she will help you start the process for having weight loss surgery with Dr. O'Connell.
