Introducing my Godsister

As you all know i am very old to the boards,But my godsister is hoping to have surgery soon. She has just became a member and her name is Courtney mcckinney. Please show her some love i told her how supportive you all can be,Also she has Kaiser Permente insurance. Do anybody have some helpful hint for her as far as Kaiser insurance. Thank You in Advance , Rafaella

Hey Rafaella and Courtney - Just wanted to say hi to Rafaella and welcome to Courtney! Unfortunately, I can't help you with Kaiser, I have Blue Choice and literally had no problems with approval, so hopefully, that will be the case with Courtney, too! Courtney, you're in for the ride of your life, I'm sure you already know that, so hang on! My only regret is that I didn't have this surgery about 15 years ago! It's been the best thing I could've done! Good luck to both! We're trying to living up this MD Board, so visit often. Take care, Teresa - lap rny 8/2/05 - 370/236/170

Hi Rafaella and welcome Courtney. I'm a new member and I'm just so happy to be part of the OH family. I really don't know about Kaiser Permente, I have CareFirst Blue Cross Blue Slield. I'm just starting out. I still have to find a doctor. I hope that I'll be able to have Doctor Gary Harrington as my doctor. God Bless Kimberey Columbia, MD
