Just give the office a call. They will be able to let you know. Once you meet the dr. the Dr files with insurance. if it is not accepted the Dr will help you do appeal. My was accepted the first time He put it n. Dr tribble Put all my medical conditions. then He added my swelling of the ankles. They will work with you. just know a lot of it is a waiting game waiting on insurance company. they usually hear back in 2 to 3 weeks. sometime sooner. Call the office and they will be able to answer all your questions. Judy is always there for us.

Thanks for the information. How was the insurance process?

I'm sorry I haven't been on this board lately, but I used Dr. *****ett and Dr. Tribble.  They are wonderful surgeons and I had as smooth an experience as anyone could possibly dream of.  I felt even better when Dr. *****ett prayed with me before the surgery.

Baptist was the perfect hospital.  All of the staff was professional and kind.  Good luck!!

I had Surgery done by Dr. Tribble. He is the best. The Staff there is great. I love the weight mangament office. They are always there to answer questions. They have a great support group. The Baptist was the best place for me to have my surgery. They treat you well. I had my surgery Dec 23. I have lost a total of 75 pounds. Off all meds except my allergy meds and my by pass suppliments. If you have questions feel free to contact me.
