Hi Tommie, I am also going to be seeing Dr. Barbara! Wow. My consultation in on Monday July 12th. I am glad to hear that he was wonderful. There is a like When you click on the go local, to check on surgeons. Dr babara is listed, It will show all the people who have registered with this site that he has done the surgery on and what type of insuranc they have. The is also a like for insurance providers, it list all insurance companies of people registered with this site and they talk about what it was like for them. I hope this will help you out. If you need help finding information, just email me and I will try to help. I have been reasearching for this surgery for over a month now. I have found a lot of good information on the main message board. Like what the meals will be like after surgery, just by reading about other peoples experiences has really helped out a lot.
