Topic: RE: MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SURGEONS LIST!

Does anyone know what the deal is with Swedish these days? I was told they accept Medicaid/DSHS and Dr. McMahon's web page indicates that he accepts Medicaid/DSHS patients, but when I spoke with them today, their insurance person told me that they are in fact not contracted with Medicaid and never have been. This is puzzling to me based on earlier reports from Medicaid patients earlier in this thread. 

Did something change or did I simply get bad information?

Hello,

 

Reminding you all about the support group tomorrow night 3/12 at 6:30 at the Poodle Dog Restaurant in Fife.  We meet in the room between the bar and kitchen.

We will discuss getting back on track and some tips and tools to help you.  I will also be sharing a recipe and a really fun new workout.

Everyone is invited to attend.  I'm looking forward to seeing you all there.

I am a little late to the game here and you may have already moved forward, but I believe Dr Chebli (Overlake in Bellevue) does revisions and I could not recommend him more highly.  He is wonderful!

Hello everyone!

I hope February treated you well and that March is looking just as bright. The past couple of months we've done technical talks on vitamins and protein and I wanted to change it up a bit and talk about alcohol. Or, more accurately, alcohol addiction or the propensity towards addictions post-op.

I hope that you can join me this month and learn more about the signs and ways to keep on top of this and not let it get the best of you.

As always, if you have questions please feel free to bring them with you to the group or PM me ahead of time so I can include them.



Here are the details:

  When: March 9, 2013 at 3:00 PM Where: 
Sizzlers Restaurant
16615 Southcenter Pkwy, Tukwila, WA


Best wishes and I'll see you in week!
