Topic: RE: Next Wednesday in Kearney
Hi Linda, My sister in law, who lives in Hastings, NE called me just this evening looking for information on LapBand and I told her I would locate some local resources for her via OH. I am going to let her know about the support group. She doesn't have internet access at home so I will call her first thing in the morning. Glad to see you getting a group together and I am sure it will be great.  Thanks for the information! Gail

Well my 3 year anniversary has arrived. It seem just like yesterday that I made the trip to Scottsbluff for my surgery. Well I feel I have done good on my journey and hope it will continue for the next three years. I hope all of your journey have gone good for you. Stay in touch and have a nice summer. jimmy

Topic: RE: VSG Surgeon in Nebraska?
A month is not that long at all, really.  I've been doing the six month diet for four months now.  I'm nearing the end of it and will at that time have all my other insurance requirements in place.  It usually takes 4-6 weeks to get a pre-auth back from the insurance carrier so perhaps by mid October I could have all of this behind me.  That would be great!  Thanks for your help, I've got an Omaha phone book so will be able to get the number for Dr Sudan's from it.  MeMo

Topic: RE: VSG Surgeon in Nebraska?

I had went to the seminar in december and had my surgery in april, I think alot of it depends on insurance as well.  I know some people who have had to take 6 months worth of nutritional/weight loss classes (something like that) before the insurance company will consider paying.  I luckily had no issues, so in my opinion I got my surgery done rather quickly after I found the right dr.  I only had a month to wait after I had scheduled my surgery.  I hope this helps, I would give the office a call and ask them about the sleeve, I can give you the #, it is also posted on the net under creighton's website.  Good luck.
