straight medicad

Once again, I'm appealing for surgeon info on behalf of one of my clinic patients. Does anyone know of a bariatric surgeon who accepts straight medicaid? I have spent so much time on this and have had no success! Thanks robin

Robin, I cannot tell you about Medicaid but Dr. Brolin in Monmouth Jct. (732-274-3434)accepts Medicaire. Why not give his office a call, speak to Miriam. it couldn't hurt and you might be pleasantly surprised. Connie

I think Dr. D. Jean-Baptiste in Plainfield may if I'm not mistaken...I just had surgery on March 19 and I believe my next door neighbor (and new friend) had Medicaid..doesn't hurt to check it out.

Robin~ Have you checked with Dr. Onopachenko (sp?). I think he takes Medicaid? Worth a shot, he's in or near Atlantic City. Michelle Brennan

Hey Robin... How about trying a google search (I love that site!) something like Bariatric Surgeons who accept medicaid... can't hurt to try. Good Luck.
