I am new to the website and just wanted to say hello to my new family. I have enjoyed reading all the informative information from all of  you wonderful and amazing people. l just received word back from my insurance company that I have been approved for my DS surgery. I was amazed it only took UHC 24 hours to approve me for surgery. I do not have a surgery date yet. I called my Dr. Office today and they stated they will me call me back to schedule my surgery. I am hoping they will call back to let me know before the end of this week. I am very excited and looking forward to a new and healthy future.

Hello and WELCOME!! What is your name?

I have a surgery date of March 9 with Dr. V for a sleeve. It took over 3 weeks for me to get my date. I was soooo frustrated!!  If you don't hear something soon, keep calling and ask for Dawn.
She does the scheduling and when I spoke with her yesterday, she said that she has so so many to schedule. She's very sweet but seems to be way behind and overrun with surgeries to schedule. Don't you just love Dr. V!!

GOOD LUCK and keep us posted.
