Hello everyone. I have a question, do any of you know of a surgeon who accepts medicaid? I already called Dr. Curry's office and was informed that he does not accept medicaid. I've called Holzer in Gallipolis, Dr. Choban and MCW and a few others. PLEASE help me. I desperately need this surgery and i don't really know where to begin. But I guess the first thing I need to know is who accepts medicaid! Thanks!

Bobbie, I completely agree with the above post. Contact your insurance carrier or if they have an on-line provider directory use that. Be sure that they know you are not looking for just any old surgeon but that you are looking for a surgeon that does biaratric surgery too. Hope this helps.. Best wishes to you in your journey Kym

I know that it is a drive but three hospital's in Cleveland do. They are, University Hospital in Cleveland, St. Vincent's, and the I think the Cleveland Clinic does as well. I know that you have to have to be deemed "A Center of Excellence" in order for them to pay. You can call UH @ 216-844-8414....at least that is the surgeon that did my surgery. They also have a web site.... Hope that this helps you! Sue 325/goal130/current 122
