Hi, I thought I posted earlier today but it didn't turn up so I'm trying again. I live near Grand Junction, Colorado which puts me pretty close to the same distance either direction (the Front Range or Salt Lake) to find a bariatric surgeon. I know that others have traveled long distances for their surgeries and would like to know how living far from the dr. impacted the process. After ten years of contemplating WLS and waiting for the right insurance at the right time I've decided to just forget the insurance and put the whole shebang on plastic. Thanks for any info. --Didi
